Exploring World History
Exploring World History doesn't just check a box—it delivers three full high school credits (yep, that's 1 in literature, 1 in history, and 1 in Bible) in a single, brilliantly designed course. And no, it's not cobbled together from random printouts and dry timelines. This is a full-color, worldview-rich, source-document-loaded curriculum that actually respects your teen's brain—and your schedule.
The course includes 150 daily lessons spread across two textbooks—Creation Through the Middle Ages and The Renaissance to the Present. Each of the 30 weekly units kicks off with a clear summary, Bible memory work, a list of the week's required literature, writing assignments, and optional hands-on projects. It's built so your teen can take the wheel with as much (or as little) oversight as you want to give.
Need to lighten the load? You can skip the literature track and just focus on the history and Bible components. But complete all parts and you've got yourself three high school credits wrapped into one powerhouse program.
Expect your student to read original speeches, documents, poems, and stories in In Their Words, the third volume in the set. It's not just a dusty tour of Western Civilization. Sure, he'll get a thorough look at ancient empires and the Renaissance, but he'll also dig into the stories and struggles of Latin America, Africa, and Asia—all of it through the lens of faith in God and respect for His Word.
Expect about 2–3 hours per lesson, depending on your student's reading speed and how deep he goes with the writing and projects. Either way, he'll emerge from this course informed, thoughtful, and—more than likely—able to hold his own in any college-level humanities class.
