High School

Understanding the Times offers a fascinating, comprehensive look at how the tenets of the Christian worldview compares with five major competing worldviews of our day: Islam, Secularism, Marxism, New Spirituality, and Postmodernism. Students are introduced to the battle of ideas, then to each of the competing worldviews. After that, students are carefully guided through ten academics disciplines that are most influenced by these worldviews. The course provides a systematic way for students to understand the ideas that rule our world. While the material is expansive, the engaging, easy-to-understand writing style invites students to discover the truths of God — and our world. The Student Textbook is hardcover and contains 18 chapters of text material. It should be used in conjunction with the Student Manual. The Student Manual is a consumable product that is an accompaniment to the Student Textbook. It functions as a workbook that students may write in. For each chapter, it includes discussion questions, a link to a video, additional reading, study guides and a writing assignment. One– or Two–semester Course.
