Publisher's Description of Taking Asia for Jesus Set (Textbook & Student Workbook)
Take a trip to the biggest continent in the world with this exciting
history course! Travel back to the time before Christ and learn about
the civilizations of India, China, and Japan. Then move forward past the
ascension of the Lord Jesus and trace the spreading reign of Christ as
the gospel goes forth into Asia. Taking Asia for Jesus tells the story
from the Apostle Thomas in the 1st century to present-day servants of
Jesus. In this engaging narrative, readers will find some of the most
thrilling stories about the progress of the gospel and will learn the
amazing things God has done in this part of the world.
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.
