After a long break, we're finally returning to more structure next week. We will continue with our JBC and also begin on “The Mighty Works of God” (TMWOG). I'm also going to put up on the wall, the nine major links used by God to move Christianity westward.

The nine links, as identified by historian Verna Hall in The Christian History of the Constitution of the United States of America, are:

1. Creation

2. Moses and the Law

3. Christ : the Focal Point of History

4. Paul : Christianity moved Westward

5. Bible in English

6. Columbus: Link to the New World

7. Pilgrim: Seed of our Christian Republic

8. Patriot: Westward Movement and Falling Away

I think I'm going to roughly follow the sample lesson one for the first chapter (His Story) and see what the outcome will be. Frankly, I'm feeling a bit lazy having goofed off the past several weeks. I want to get the kitchen more organized and I also want to do more gardening. We're planning our first Square Foot Garden (32 square feet!) and I rather be out there now than sitting in here and doing all this!
