Teaching a Providential View of History
When teaching a providential view of history, our view of history isn't that there is a "Christian history" and then "secular history." All of history is God's story, it's His Story. His working with people, places, and events to bring about his Kingdom, rule, and reign.

The main purpose of history is story of God.

Are we teaching the story of man or are we teaching the story of God? What has God done and what is God doing?

This is a Providential View of History.
What is the Big Picture of History?
Teaching a Providential View of History
In every era we need to go back and look at what God was doing. In every era of history God is at work. There's never been a time when God hasn't been at work.

This is why we focus on missionary work, the work of the church, etc. But, even in secular history we see God working as the hand of Providence.

The decision to homeschool is difficult. There is so much to learn, and there are often radical changes that take place in your family. Unfortunately, not everyone will be supportive.

Well-meaning friends and relatives may believe you are going to “ruin your child.” How can you make sure that you have laid a good foundation for your child’s future? How can you respectfully defend your choice to those who disagree with you?

Many studies indicate that Christian youth are leaving the Church, and anti-Christian education has been linked as a major factor in this equation. The Bible is full of instructions on how God desires His children to be educated. IF GOD has a definite opinion about the issue of education, wouldn’t you desire to find out what it is and how best to implement HIS WISDOM? Order your copy here.
