Introduce high school kids to world history with Christian Liberty Press homeschool curriculum textbooks.
This 426 page hardback textbook from Christian Liberty Press presents a study of world cultures from a Biblical perspective. Volume 2 includes history from the Protestant Reformation until the third Millenium AD. For 9th - 11th Grade. This textbook covers the events of world history with an emphasis on European and American culture from the Reformation until the 1990's. Each chapter traces a particular theme within a particular time period. The principal themes include the history of Christianity and philosophy with their results in culture, politics, economics, society, science, and technology.
The vast majority of ancient history texts written during the 20th century contain an overwhelming bias of interpreting history from a secular and evolutionary perspective. This bias explains why modern history books rarely attempt to show the relevance of the Bible to the interpretation of historical events. By contrast, students using this textbook will be challenged to accept the Biblical method of historical interpretation.
Each chapter begins with a timeline to help the reader see the chronological relationships between the events. Each chapter ends with thought-provoking questions to encourage students to think through the Christian implications of the materials and its relevance for today's world.
