Product Description

Have we been brainwashed about our roots? Read evidence that the writings in Genesis are more ancient than historians admit. Adam, Noah, and other eyewitnesses actually wrote these records for us. This unique course, based on Genesis 1-11, integrates the linguistic evidence and other fields of knowledge with the Bible. It clears up the fuzziness of history before Egypt. Through literature and art it reveals startling insights about giants, dragons, cherubim and other beings that the early people knew but we have lost in myth. Gives true answers to age-old questions of God, man, and the world -- in order to develop the right worldview, which leads to right thinking. Includes maps, charts, timeline and full-color reproductions of ancient art. Six units with flexible uses for teens, almost teens, and the rest of the family.


About the Author

Dr. Ruth Beechick received a bachelor's degree in music from Seattle Pacific University and, later, a master's and a doctorate in teaching and curriculum from Arizona State University. She spent a number of years in teaching and curriculum work in the public schools and college education departments, then spent a second career as editor and writer of Christian education materials. Now she continues writing from her home in the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. Dr. Beechick's special interest in Genesis began in 1961 with the landmark book, "The Genesis Flood" by Dr. Henry Morris. That book has inspired numerous scientists and creationist movements throughout the world which have changed the history of Christian education in our times. Lacking a science background, Beechick pursued Genesis studies in history and literature, instead, and this book is her latest contribution to the creationist movement. She strongly believes that our floundering society needs to return to its roots in the foundational truth of Genesis.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wholeheartedly recommended!, August 31, 1999
By A Customer
This book was an answer to prayer! Dr. Beechick looks at Genesis with such extraordinary depth, yet the book is clearly readable ( I found my 8 year old son reading it when it wasn't even assigned!) Excellent home school resource or unit of study for the family of faith.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Highly Recommended, March 16, 2000
Dr. Beechick has a no-nonsense way of explaining things that I'd previously wondered about. This book is a history book, the true early history of man, unashamed to read the Bible in a literal manner. And, if you want to know more, she includes an extensive annotated bibliography. This is a must-read for anyone who wants to teach ancient history from a Biblical perspective.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant home A Must for All Homeschoolers!, August 26, 2004
Dr. Ruth Beechick has provided an outstanding source to study the beginning of the world. Its easily comprehensible and a joy to read aloud. This book presents exceptional look at Genesis 1-11, integrating history with art, literature, and other disciplines. Convincing evidence shows that Adam and Noah were real men, and that God did send a world-wide flood.

If possible get this book and "Adam and His Kin" (also by Beechick) together. You'll be glad you did. It's been a highlight of our homeschool year.

I was sorry to finish these books however, we continued along this line with the full year unit "Ancient History: Adam to Messiah." (Page number readings from "Genesis: Finding Our Roots" and "Adam and His Kin" are suggested in lessons).
