While God requires all Christian parents to ensure that their children receive a distinctly Christian education, learning the truth about their place as God’s image-bearers in His world, His Lordship over it, the scientific laws by which He governs it, and the creative gifts given to them with which to glorify Him, there are numerous ways to ensure that that this education is delivered.
One of these methods is through homeschooling, and there is an ever-increasing variety of God-honouring curriculum available to parents to help us to do our job well. No curriculum is perfect, but some are quite good, or excellent in some aspect. Although in our family we have only used a small portion of the many quality products available, yet we are hopeful that providing the information that we do have may provide others with a helpful starting-point for their own research, and that as a result, families may be strengthened to the glory of God.
Soli Deo Gloria!
