We do not normally view ourselves as infinitesimal. In fact, it is easy for us to see mankind as the center of importance. Our pride deceives us in our perspective of ourselves and the things that surround us. On one extreme we have atheists who deny the existence of God. And I would suppose that religious people would classify themselves at the other extreme since we believe in God as the creator of the universe. But do we see all of creation-all of life-from God's perspective? Or do we still tend to see mankind as the center of creation? Are we still more concerned about where and how God...

Why did Jesus leave his Father and come down from heaven to live among his creation, only to be rejected, tortured and killed by his creation? Many would say that he came so that we would be forgiven of our sins. Others would add that he came so we would go to heaven instead of hell. Clearly Jesus came to proclaim his kingdom among man. He came to establish his people as the true temple of God, the bride of Christ and the body of Christ. He came to transform his people into his own image. But, as essential as these may be, are any of these the main reason for his coming? There is one missing...

In the past 150 years the divorce rate has increased from 4% to 50%. Since 1960 it has doubled, while the percentage of couples that just live together without marriage has increased from less than 1% to over 11%. Over the same time the percent of children born outside of marriage has increased from 5% to over 40%. Our nation is on a downward spiral, and the answer is not a better economy, better schools, a better welfare system or the right people in government. If the biblical foundation of marriage and the family is not restored, our nation will collapse, and there is nothing else that can...

This project text is a supplement to the study of chemistry. Three in-depth projects will keep the student busy throughout the year setting up experiments, making measurements and collecting data, making calculations and graphs, writing formal research reports and giving oral presentations. The projects are not expensive, but they are technically advanced. The chemicals are household commodities with very low hazard or toxicity, yet the chemistry is very challenging. These are projects, not simple experiments. Each project is portrayed as an industrial challenge. The student is a...

A fully illustrated, bound book describing in a step-by-step fashion how to take apart discarded appliances in order to see how they work. It is an excellent opportunity for fathers to work with their sons (or daughters) for both of them to learn the use of tools, to discover how things work, how they are engineered, how they are controlled, etc. This is a primer for inspiring your children to become scientists and engineers. It is filled with descriptions and explanations about how various parts are manufactured and the technology behind them. All you need is an assortment of tools and old...

How can home school compete with the expensive laboratories of the public school science classroom? Actually, in many respects, we can do a better job. And we can do it with very little expense. In this study you will use your home for a study of how you use energy. This is not just an observation study; this is a study of taking measurements, applying physics, making calculation, learning how to use spreadsheets for making calculations and graphs, writing a scientific report and giving a technical presentation. In many regards, this study far exceeds what is offered in most public high...
