In Level 4, your child will meet significant people from the regions of Asia that had an impact on God’s kingdom, from Doubting Thomas to Hudson Taylor to Amy Carmichael. The first two chapters give a geographical overview of the major regions of Asia (India, China, Japan) before the arrival of missionaries.
Learn how William
Carey’s passion for the lost led him to India and his work in translating the
Bible. Then follow John Paton and his compassion for the cannibals in the South
Pacific. Throughout the text, your student will learn the importance of
bringing the Gospel to unreached countries and peoples in the vast continent of
Asia. Extra attention is given to the religious beliefs of the region and the
impact of paganism and Buddhism. The focus is on students learning key
historical events within the context of the Christian faith. Every chapter also
includes “Prayer Points” with guidance for how pray for various regions in
Asia.
By studying these significant historical characters, your child also will learn the events they lived through, including the growth of the Mongol Empire, the Boxer Rebellion, and the Tiennamen Square Protest. Shorter sentences and a lower reading level make the text easy to understand, as concepts are broken down into simpler ideas. Double-columned text includes insets with key vocabulary words and their definitions. Full-color maps, illustrations, and labeled photographs bring the narratives to life.
