In the past twenty years, we’ve seen a lot of changes in the homeschool community. There is much more pressure being put on homeschoolers to excel academically. We’ve gone from a few brave moms who, without access to mainstream “curriculum”, managed to give their children an excellent education—but we’ve forgotten what made it excellent.

To embrace the best approaches for a truly superior education, we must first deprogram ourselves from the beliefs about education that we have long accepted as truth, along with the models that claim to be the standard by which education should be measured.

Many experts, theorists, and scientists claim that science contradicts the Bible and is therefore fallible, inaccurate, and cannot be trusted. But what we find in the truth of God’s word is that an all-knowing God established laws of nature that govern the study of scientific principles. The word science means knowledge. God is knowledge (Psalm 139), and He created our understanding of knowledge about Him and his creation (Genesis 1:26-27). Based on this understanding, it is clear that science cannot exist without the knowledge of God (Proverbs 2:6). Through the lens of the Bible, this presentation will examine the origins of science (knowledge), explain the difference between historical and observational science, and show examples of how science confirms the Bible.
