These are all searchable and interactive, so I can search a topic and the program will search all volumes for every reference. It saves so much time from trying to search through stacks of books. It also can take you on great rabbit trails as you find unexpected things that lead you to things you didn’t even know were there.

What I Love About the Christian History Library

All the words are linked together so you can study to find a certain word or a topic. This is great for general study or specific words and it works better than an index, which does allow searching by topic. So, for instance, I can search for the word “conscience” or the topic property. It will pull up all the words and passages related to your search, footnotes and all.

I can also tag passages with my own notes and save them. This is a very handy study help. The notes are easy to find and you can pull all your notes up at once.

The footnotes are hot linked as well, so when it refers to other volumes you can click and read the full context of the footnotes. It’s so nice not to have to get out 4 books to read 4 pages!

It copied all the volumes to my hard drive, so I do not need the CD-ROM every time I need to use the program. I can just click the icon and get cracking. It saves time on preparing teacher notebooks in subjects and word studies as well, because it contains a KJV Bible and Webster’s 1828 Dictionary.

This library is compatible with Logos, so if you have that program this will flow seamlessly with it. Logos Bible Software has assembled them as a library in a downloadable electronic format available for easy use on your computer. This dynamic tool features the cross-referencing search technology that aid research and writing development for Christian scholarship.

The hard copies of the books are also terrific to have because sometimes you need to hold a book or you just don’t want to be at your computer. But for study and lesson preparation this is a wise investment.

The Christian History Library is the best investment I’ve made in a long time!

Why Christian Parents Are Loving the Homeschool Biology Curriculum – There are so many great reasons that I can recommend Devotional Biology from Compass Classroom to you, but I am going to give you the most important reason first. And as a Christian homeschool parent, I know you will appreciate this one too. Like so many of you, when I began homeschooling, I decided Bible was not going to be just another subject. I wanted Jesus and His Word woven into every part of our days, just like in our actual lives. There is no part of my day or life that Jesus is not allowed. Science is no exception. 

Psychology: A Christian Perspective – a preparatory, high-school curriculum available to homeschoolers which presents the foundation of psychology from a Christian perspective so your child can be prepared for the faith-destroying lessons likely to come along in life.
