This concise, easy-to-read book gives a complete argument for the validity of the Christian faith. By highlighting the physical, chemical, and biological evidence indicating that the world was designed, the author demonstrates that science points unmistakably to the existence of God -- and not just any god, but the God of the Bible. This book contains powerful arguments that will challenge the non-Christian and bolster the faith of longtime believers.

Reasonable Faith: The Scientific Case for Christianity

Parenting teenagers requires us to change the way in which we view our children; we must recognize and acknowledge that they are budding adults. If we, as parents, and our kids are to experience the teen years as a mutually rewarding time, we must also change the ways we interact with them. Written after Diana Waring homeschooled her three children through their own teen years, Reaping the Harvest is a practical guide to building deep and long-lasting relationships with your teen. Diana provides a blueprint for helping your teen think issues of the adult world, such as taking responsibility for their education, handling money, setting and achieving their own goals, and developing healthy male/female relationships. More importantly, this book will help you and your teen to catch a vision of serving the Lord fully within whatever sphere of influence He calls them to.

Around the World in 180 Days is a geography and history program covering each continent's history, geography, and culture. And yet this is not a textbook. It is a series of questions that the student must research in order to answer. Plenty of resources (available in most public libraries) are suggested to help students conduct their research, and the teacher's edition provides all the answers. Pages in the student book are three-hole punched and perforated so that the student can complete the worksheets and compile a notebook that will document his or her work. One great thing about this curriculum is that it is written with a multilevel approach, with questions for students of all grade levels, and these levels are clearly marked in the book. This is truly a curriculum your whole family can study at once! This two-volume set includes an illustrated teacher's edition and a student workbook.

The Lifeguard's Locker is the Parent/Teacher Manual to the Jump In writing course. ''Writing may send warm shivers of pleasure up your spine. Or it may make you feel as though you are drowning in an angry, choppy, icy sea with nothing in sight but hungry, toothy sharks and storm clouds spitting out hail stones as big as golf balls.'' So begins this wonderful composition course by author Sharon Watson. Intended as a course for students in grades 5-8, Jump In can also be used by high school students who have had little practice in writing or who are reluctant writers. Jump In overcomes the reluctant student's fear of writing with a friendly, approachable style; short, workable exercises; and non-threatening word counts for longer assignments. Students will learn how to write persuasive papers, expository essays, descriptions, narration, and poetry. The easy-to-use parent/teacher section includes what to look for in an assignment, how to assign a grade, how to help the student proofread, and a one-year writing program with daily writing prompts designed to maintain fun and interest for the student.

Educating the WholeHearted Child

Clay Clarkson with Sally Clarkson

A mother's life is a whirlwind of seasons, changing from one to another without much warning, and then to another the next day. If your heart is prepared, you can adjust to whatever season comes upon you, weathering the changes with grace; if it is not, you will find yourself reeling and twisting in the winds of life, grasping for something or someone to hold onto. But that is the secret to weathering the seasons of life. You need something God s word, and someone Jesus Christ, to hold onto. They are what give you the grace to weather the seasons. Nothing else can...Only the revealed truth of God made alive in your heart through the Holy Spirit can. --from Seasons of a Mother's Heart Encouragement for Your Seasons Your heart will be encouraged as you read the touching stories, spiritual insights, and personal lessons that are the seasons in Sally Clarkson's life.
