Biblical Worldview High School History classes

TeachingHisStory.com is offering 3 Biblical worldview classes for high school students, online and on-demand for your convenience, in the privacy of your home!

Ancient History Using the Bible:

This course on Ancient History begins “In the Beginning” and traces through the Bible as the main resource to study what happened from @ 4000 BC until the Roman era about 1500 AD. We will use a timeline, extensive maps, and use age appropriate books that dovetail with the Bible to study the people groups in other nations.

We will use a resource that my children loved: What the Bible is All About: Reproducible Maps, Charts, Timelines and Illustrations. My daughter (who is now homeschooling her children) says that she learned the most about the Bible from this resource. We’ll see the actual timeline of the books (the Bible is not in chronological order!) We will study the kings of Judah and Israel (some have the same names!) This study will not only give a thorough understanding of Ancient History but also take some confusion out of our life long pursuit of being Biblically literate. We will use the Bible itself as the core of History and Literature. We will also use Streams of Civilization, Volume I, Third Edition, to study the different nations in more depth.

American Heritage Today:

American History, if taught from original sources, is an exciting adventure for young adults. Learning the stories of our founding from letters, documents and biographies brings Liberty alive and will produce passionate patriotic statesmen.

The reason to go back to source letters, documents, articles and publications is that America’s history began to be re-written about 1900. American Heritage Today highlights the amazing ways God orchestrated to establish the United States of America. You will see His hand in preparing people and moving through centuries and generations. You will explore the Declaration of Independence in depth and be able to clearly explain it to others. You need to know and understand the Biblical underpinnings of your government to walk in and steward Liberty to prosper yourself and the next generation.

American Government & Economics:

This is a thoroughly practical Christian Economics course. Every Christian needs to develop an understanding of these Biblical principles to know what practices will build freedom, prosperity and justice. Then we as a culture will know what practices to embrace and which to refuse, which will bring success and prosperity and which will bring poverty and despair.

This course explains the Constitution so that the student understands it clause by clause and its 27 amendments. It uses writings of the Founding Fathers, including the Federalist Papers, the Convention notes, the ratification debates and many other original documents.



We HOLD these Truths…

  • We HOLD these Truths: Psalm 78, Deut 4, Deut 6
  • to be self-evident: Romans 12:2, “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”
  • All men are created equal!: Gal 3:28, “There is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male and female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus.”

Celebrate Freedom Week!

Restoring America’s Biblical Heritage

Next week, September 23-27, is Celebrate Freedom Week. This is a Florida statute passed by Gov Scott in 2004:

Florida State Title XLVIII, 1003.421Recitation of the Declaration of Independence.—
(1)To educate students about the sacrifices made for freedom in the founding of this country and the values on which this country was founded, the last full week of classes in September shall be recognized in public schools as Celebrate Freedom Week. Celebrate Freedom Week must include at least 3 hours of appropriate instruction in each social studies class, as determined by each school district, which instruction shall include an in-depth study of the intent, meaning, and importance of the Declaration of Independence.
(2)To emphasize the importance of this week, at the beginning of each school day or in homeroom, during the last full week of September, public school principals and teachers shall conduct an oral recitation by students of the following words of the Declaration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”
(3)Student recitation of this statement shall serve to reaffirm the American ideals of individual liberty.
(4)Upon written request by a student’s parent, the student must be excused from the recitation of the Declaration of Independence. History.—s. 1, ch. 2002-213.

Happy Constitution Day!

Today across the nation, in every public school, teachers should be teaching the Constitution according to the original intent. (Public Law 108-477, section 111 (b) “Each educational institution that receives Federal funds for a fiscal year shall hold an educational program on the United States Constitution on September 17th of such year for the students served by the educational institution.” Signed into Law December of 2004.)

From Federalist 1:

It has been frequently remarked that it seems to have been reserved to the people of this country, by their conduct and example, to decide the important question, whether societies of men are really capable or not of establishing good government from reflection and choice, or whether they are forever destined to depend for their political constitutions on accident and force.

Isaiah 33:22:

For the Lord is our judge, the Lord is our lawgiver, the Lord is our king; he will save us.

Take the POLL!

History Courses from Original Sources!

Are you yearning to know Authentic History, but are not sure where to start? As a veteran home schooler, I have spent literally thousands of dollars and hours hunting down original and Biblical Worldview resources so that you do not have to! Here are my favorite four courses for Adult and High school level:

Constitutional Conversations in Six Weeks

Ancient History Using the Bible – 36 week course for High school credit

American History from Original Documents – 36 week course for High school credit

American Government and Economics – 36 week course for High school credit

Authentic American History High School Course

Authentic American History High School Course

American History, if taught from original documents and the Biblical Worldview, will produce passionate patriotic statesmen and is an exciting adventure for young adults. Learning the stories from original sources, from letters, documents and biographies brings liberty alive.

This American History course is different from most. It is a compilation of original documents written before the 1900’s. It is critical to go back to source letters, documents, articles and publications because America’s history began to be re-written about 1900. There are few public school resources after that, that cite original sources and stay close to authentic history.

Authentic American History highlights the amazing ways God orchestrated to establish the United States of America. You will see His hand in preparing people and moving through centuries and generations. You will explore the Declaration of Independence in depth and be able to clearly explain it to others. You need to know and understand the Biblical underpinnings of your government to walk in and steward Liberty to prosper yourself and the next generation.

As students learn American History from Authentic American History, then they will:

  • Know their true history and heritage as Americans.
  • Understand the principles underlying the Cause of Liberty.
  • Develop better reading, reasoning and writing skills.

Because the course:

  • Draws from the passion of our stories of Liberty in autobiographies, letters, Historic documents,
  • Illustrates character development in patriots from assorted countries,
  • Uses higher reading level sources and inspires better writing using the “4R’s: Research, Reason, Relate and Record” than what is presently used in most schools.

Authentic American History covers American History in four nine week quarters. The first volume shares the story of the Word being printed for the common man into his own language and how that affected how he lived. In England, this leads into the Puritans, then the Separatists, then the Pilgrims and their adventure to America. The second volume covers the Colonial period with the stand for Independence. The third volume covers the issue of slavery, into the Civil War and into the second reformation period. We will look into the Progressive era in the fourth quarter, then how to recover our culture for Christ. Students will be reading excerpts from original documents that bring life to the time periods and their studies.

As a general guide, Monday through Thursday will be readings, discussions and short writing assignments to capture the student’s reflections in his own words. Fridays will be used to record essays for our high schoolers, a paragraph for our Logic stage students (Middle school) and a good strong sentence for our Grammar stage students (Elementary aged), if you are enjoying this course as a family. They will learn how to use the “Notebook method” of education which develops brilliant thinkers and virtuous citizens.

    What others say about these courses:

    I strongly endorse Brenda’s course on the US Constitution. Every American should take this course.

    Dr. MacMenamin has taught in a variety of settings including churches and schools on a host of topics. Her classes and seminars are very well received and widely accepted and attended. ~ Dr. David Thompson, Chaplain, SLC Sheriff’s Office Full Reference Letter here.

    As prior students of Brenda’s classes, we highly recommend participating in her courses. Her insight is a true gift and a blessing.   ~ Leigh & June Lamson

    This course not only expanded my understanding of a Biblical worldview of education, but is transforming my soul to God’s will so that I may know Him and reveal Him to all with whom I interact..  Carol Hayes, Retired, Speech-Language Pathologist

    I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power.” ~Thomas Jefferson

This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power.” ~Thomas Jefferson


        Testimonials:
        “I’ve always talked about how much I love my country and how much I revere the Constitution. So when Brenda offered the class, Constitutional Conversations, I decided to take it.
        “I was stunned to find out how much I didn’t know about our founding documents. When Brenda teaches WHAT the Founders originally wrote in our Constitution, explains what they had to say about WHY they wrote what they did – and then clearly shows us how far we have strayed from their original intentions – it is an eye opener!
        “I strongly endorse Brenda’s course on the US Constitution. Every American should take this course. Every American Believer needs to grasp the depth of Biblical truth that was built into the foundations of our country – and then learn exactly what needs to happen to move us back toward our Biblical roots.”
        ~ Sam Chess, Senior Pastor, Grace Emmanuel Church

        I would dare to say that most Americans have no idea of how the Constitution protects the power and authority of the citizens of this country. Due to the lack of education in this area, we have gradually fallen from a Constitutional Republic to an oligarchy. “Constitutional Conversations” not only opened my eyes to this reality, it also inspired me to educate myself more about this matter, while helping others understand the authority of “We the people”. ~Rev. Diego S Barrios, Ethne Missions
