About the Course
WORLD HISTORY
Course Description:
World History recounts the story of mankind from creation to present.
Students will trace the major patterns in world history, following them as they point more and
more clearly to the triumph of the kingdom of God. As they journey through time in this engaging
survey of world history, students will cover creation, the earliest post-Flood civilizations, Greece,
Rome, the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the Reformation, the Enlightenment, and civilizations
in Africa, the East, Asia, pre-colonization Americas, and empires in Africa, India, and Asia.
They are challenged to discover the forces, issues, people, and movements that have shaped
our modern world. God’s providence and Bible integration are given prominence as the students
are taught to view the world through a Christian lens. Various hands on activities and class
projects will be incorporated throughout the course.
