Description
Using her well-known talent for making complex topics clear and understandable, Dr. Beechick has provided us with another valuable and exciting resource for teaching. This book is riveting! In a sharp departure from her fabulous "how to teach" books, Dr. Beechick introduces us to an almost forgotten world in a fantastic work of historical fiction - combining the actual, historical truths revealed in scripture with various other sources to create a fluid, easy-to-read "walk" through early history. We journey from creation to the departure of Abram from Ur, through the eyes of the Old Testament authors. Hopefully, Dr. Beechick will continue in this vein in future books. 176 pgs.
Publisher's Description of Adam and His Kin
This book provides a unique blending of the Bible account of Adam and his kin with information from sciences, archeology, ancient traditions and other sources. While scripturally accurate, it reads as easily as a story, yet teaches actual history. It tells the story from creation to Abram, encompassing the whole period usually called "prehistoric" in modern history textbooks. Charts, maps and illustrations help to give a clear picture of the times and places. It offers insights into the world before the great flood and into the rebuilding of civilization afterward. In the process, it shows the sources of all pagan beliefs.
Category Description for Ancient Civilizations & the Bible Book Packs
These packs were compiled by Diana Waring for use with her Ancient Civilizations and the Bible Study Guide. Although it would be wonderful to have access to all the books referenced in the guide, Diana realizes that this isn't always practical and has thus provided three different packs. The Economy Pack provides just the essentials. The Basic Pack contains the essentials and some others that are also very useful. The largest pack, the Deluxe Pack, holds all the essentials plus extras that are also nice to have for your study. In case you wish to upgrade, Add-On packs are also available.
Sometimes books used in the packs below go out of print. We will make every effort to have the stock we need, however, if a book becomes unavailable, we'll substitute with another book of the author's (Diana Waring) choosing. Please note that because of this, not all books are directly referenced in the study guide.
