"These materials have had and continue to have a...I can hardly find the words to describe it...To say they're having a "profund" effect on my children and the university students seems to be an understatement. In a culture where critical thinking is neither valued nor taught, the drastic...no, no, no...the eternal life changes that I'm seeing in many around me can be clearly traced back to the use of this curriculum."

- 1. Why do I need a correlated worldview and bible survey curriculum?
- Children learn early the core beliefs and values that become their worldview. Christian parents and educators are critically challenged not only with teaching children to know, embrace, and act on biblical truth, but also with showing them the differences between the Christian worldview and competing secular worldviews.
- Parents and teachers alike are sadly recognizing that even after years of formal Bible study in their schools, children do not understand the relationships between memorized Bible facts and their spiritual beliefs, nor can they explain in an age appropriate fashion what they believe or why.
- 2. What is the goal of this curriculum?
- Building on the Rock is a Christian worldview curriculum designed specifically to meet a critical challenge – to help teachers effectively teach Bible story facts and at the same time help children think critically as they develop and learn to articulate a cohesive Biblical worldview.
- 3. How can I teach both a worldview and a Bible survey curriculum?
- Building on the Rock is a correlated worldview and Bible survey curriculum designed to use valuable school time effectively by presenting major Bible truths and events holistically within the framework of a Christian worldview. Offering a Bible survey course that incorporates specific Christian worldview concepts within a single time slot allows you to schedule time for state mandated subjects as well as reserve time for challenging biblical studies.
- 4. What training is required to teach this class?
- The key components for a successful teacher are a heart-felt vision for worldview thinking and a willingness to invest time and energy in communicating that vision. The day-to-day lessons, discussions, assignments, and projects makes it simple to teach the course without extensive background or training.
- 5. What materials does each student need?
- Each student should have a copy of the Worldview Student Workbook and Bible Survey Student Workbook. Students will find these resources invaluable as they continue developing their worldview thinking. The workbooks are consumables.
- 6. How can I place an order?
- You can do one of the following to order your curriculum products:
- Order online through our store
- Order via the mail (or by fax) using our printable order form
