Dave Raymond's American History DVD series provides a comprehensive overview of US history from pre-colonization to Theodore Roosevelt and Booker T. Washington. . . and all from a Christian worldview.

Students will also complete four projects throughout the year (a map project, speech project, thesis paper, and another project) and work on a year-long portfolio each week.

Each lesson includes 5 video lectures (approximately 10 minutes each; 32 hours of material total).

Everybody talks about it. The news is full of it. But most Christians know very little about it. Economics: it's everywhere, influencing everything, yet so rarely understood.

Economics for Everybody seeks to remedy that through an insightful and entertaining exploration of the principles, practices, and consequences of economics. Thoroughly unconventional, it links entrepreneurship with lemonade, cartoons with markets, and Charlie Chaplin with supply and demand. It's funny, clever, profound and instructive.

If you want to know why economics is so important to understand, this is the series for you. In our day and age, it's a message every Christian needs to hear.

The wire-bound Leader's Guide includes two introductory chapters on the parables, twelve detailed teacher's notes for teaching each class, and six lessons on Cinematic Theology. The Leader's Guide is the complete guidebook for how to teach the class. (108p.)

The Study Book includes twelve in-depth chapters on the parables. Almost all of the in-depth biblical study materials are included in the Study Book.
