Understanding our times
There is so much in the news today that causes us to think we might be living in the end times. Everyone seems to be open to conversation on end times which gives believers a great opportunity to witness. But, we must understand God's time line for His creation to be most effective in our witness. My favorite book on understanding these times is Millennium: Beginning or End? by Jack Van Impe. To get your copy go to my side bar under book reviews.

The End Times Are Really Just the Beginning...
With each prophetic tick of the clock, we find ourselves one moment closer to the day of Christ's appearing. Yet Armageddon is not the end of the world; it is the beginning of a new era -- a glorious New Millennium
When the risen Christ returns to earth at the close of the Great Tribulation, He will reconcile all creation to Himself -- and usher in a thousand-year era of peace and righteousness such as the world has never known.
Readers will find within the pages of Millennium: Beginning or End? fascinating answers to their questions about the coming of earth's "golden age," including:
- How will God heal the planet in the aftermath of Armageddon?
- What part will believers play in the Millennial kingdom?
- What will spiritual life be like in the Millennium?
- Why will the Millennial kingdom fall short of absolute perfection?
- What will happen as the Millennium draws to a close?
For everyone who has limited his or her understanding of end-time events to the study of Armageddon, this fascinating look at the thousand-year reign of Christ will be a joyous study of the new Millennium.

The Encyclopedia of Ancient History
If you are looking for a way to spark your kids interest while studying Ancient History this book is a great resource! It goes along well with any curriculum, easy to use and has over 1,600 colour photographs. The best part is there are 120 step-by-step projects to help you experience the past. Create your own Chinese dragon kite, build an Egyptian pyramid, paint a Greek actor's mask, or design a suit of Roman armour. In my 10 + years of homeschooling this book has been my favorite when we study Ancient History. It is suitable for K - 8th grades.

To order your copy go to my side bar and order through Amazon.
