Christian Homeschooling in a Classical Style How can you give your children the tools they need to teach themselves? Long ago students were first taught how to learn. Today, students are taught an encyclopedia of subjects (trivia)?? but they are not taught the basic skills of learning: to discover, to reason, and to apply. They are not taught the Trivium. Placing classical education within a homeschool context, the Bluedorns offer a workable plan for every age and subject based on the study of grammar, logic and rhetoric. Their curriculum suggestions, teaching tips and advice on topics such as character building will help you provide your children with a solid education.Feature:

  • How Classical Education can be made distinctly Christian.
  • A Workable plan for teaching Latin, Greek & Hebrew.
  • Christian principles for studying classical literature.
  • Using ancient literature to study the time period 753BC-323BC.
  • How to fit different approaches to homeschooling into Classical Education.
  • How to teach each subject in those important early years.
  • 40 pages of curriculum and resources.

    Safely Home

    $25.00


    Paperback (110 pages)
    Author: Tom Eldredge


    The choice has always been knowledge or relationship. Which is more important? In Safely Home, Tom Eldredge shows how this was the original conflict in the Garden, a clash that would later be the dividing line between Greek (humanist) and Hebrew (biblical) worldviews. Mr. Eldredge offers practical and biblical hope for those dads who put relationships first and who dare to go safely home. After years of broken marriages, rebellious children and misplaced priorities within the Church, parents’ cries to God have been answered by a Holy Spirit-driven desire by fathers to turn their hearts to their children, by parent-directed Hebrew education and with the re-discovery of Biblical roles for men and women. Many Church shepherds now see that, despite a smorgasbord of programs, most children of believers will reject the Faith and blend into an increasingly pagan society. They grieve at the destruction of the family within their flocks, but they are at a loss for what to do. Here are Biblical solutions.

    training_pure1.JPGtraining_pure.JPGby Barbara Smith

    $15.00

    72 page A4 compilation (bound photocopy)

    We want our children to be holy, righteous and pure. We want to teach them wisdom and purity in relationships. We want to teach them to be self-disciplined and to seek after what is right and good and not give in to fleshly desires. This book is a compilation of writings by some veteran homeschoolers from New Zealand and overseas on these matters. It also contains a great list of books and resources available to parents/children and youth to help them along on this path of purity.
    Topics Include:

    • Start Young
    • Set the Example
    • Never Compromise
    • Be Constantly Vigilant
    • Having serial boy/girl friends is, at best, emotional fornication
    • Dating teaches uncommitment
    • Parents must protect their children Dating develops a wrong concept of love
    • Making vows, signing letters and exchanging rings won’t, in themselves, keep our daughters & sons pure until marriage – more is required
