Publisher's Description of Taking Europe for Jesus Student Workbook
All the ends of the world shall remember and turn to the LORD, And all
the families of the nations shall worship before You. For the kingdom is
the LORD’s, And He rules over the nations. (Ps. 22:27-28) This book
recounts one of the most remarkable stories in world history: how Jesus
Christ, the King of kings and Lord of lords, transformed the continent
of Europe. Starting with the conversion of Lydia in Philippi, learn how
the gospel of Jesus Christ penetrated, and then transformed Europe
through the centuries. The reign of Jesus Christ touched every part of
life in some way. The gospel transformed families, cultures, languages,
education, law, and government. Taking Europe for Jesus is an inviting,
captivating, and action-packed journey through European history.
Features of this textbook include maps to orient the reader to
geography, beautiful photography and artwork to draw in the reader, and
prayer points to encourage worship and supplication throughout study.
Written to teach children about the providence of God in
history, the Generations History courses offer homeschool families an open-and-go
option that is engaging to readers and easy to use. Beginning in kindergarten, My
1st History shows children that God calls people for His purpose
and glory. Through the 34 stories, children will be introduced to some of these
amazing men and women from biblical times through the 20th century. Following
the readings, My 1st History includes short discussion
questions on the story. Church History is introduced in the grade 1 course,
which also lays the foundation for the courses that follow. Once the foundation
is laid, the subsequent courses teach geography and Christian history across
the continents. Along with the Textbook, a companion Activity Book (grade 1) or
Workbook (grades 2–6) is recommended. In grade 1, the Activity Book is full-color,
while the other grade-level Workbooks are black and white. Activities vary and
may include coloring pages, mapping exercises, Scripture writing, prayer
points, enrichment activities, and special projects. The consumable
Activity/Workbooks are not reproducible. Sets include the Textbook and the
corresponding Activity Book or Workbook.
