Description

In Level 6, your child will meet key people from Europe that had an impact on God’s kingdom, from St. Patrick and Alfred the Great to Charles Spurgeon and Corrie Ten Boom. The first chapter gives a geographical overview of the continent of Europe then jumps into history starting with the Roman Republic. Anchored in biblical history, the narrative builds on the early church in Acts and follows God’s story throughout Europe. Learn how Constantine put an end to Christian persecution, the controversy surrounding John Wycliff, and John Newton’s fight to see slavery abolished.

This Level 6 book is divided into 4 units. Before each unit begins, there is a two-page summary and timeline of the 500-year period students are about to study. By studying significant historical characters, your child also will learn the events they lived through, including the reign of Charlemagne, the Bubonic Plague, and the Reformation.  The focus is on students learning key historical events within the context of the Christian faith. Every chapter is full of Bible verses and includes “Prayer Points” as a guide to pray for various regions in Europe.
