Description
Publisher's Description of Taking the Americas for Jesus Set (Textbook & Student Workbook)
Embark on an epic journey through the American continents in this
exciting book. Beginning with Noah and the flood and moving forward
through time, learn how the light of Christ’s gospel penetrated into the
dark lands of North and South America. From the hot, humid jungles of
the Amazon River basin to the frigid, frozen wastelands of the Hudson
Bay, the reign of Christ has been made known.
Through twenty centuries, the spread of Christ’s kingdom is carefully chronicled through fascinating, almost unbelievable stories. In this book, readers will learn how the Eskimos of Labrador came to saving faith in Jesus Christ, how a Christian Viking first reached North America, how revival spread throughout the Americas, how the Bible first made it into Mexico, and how the savage natives of Tierra del Fuego were redeemed and transformed by Jesus Christ.
Category Description for Generations History Courses
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.
