"I agree that Christians who take college
psych, particularly in secular schools, need
some warnings about issues as well as
possible ridicule for expressing their beliefs
in certain circles. You are wise to undertake
this task so that freshmen are not blindsided."

"This work fills a very large gap in the homeschool curricula and is a
must read for Christian parents."

"I am so pleased to finally have a book my teenager can study to help
balance her perspective and prepare her for psychology courses
she is about to take in college. Parents can never do enough to
prepare their children for the secular world in which they must live,
and it is helpful to discover material that will make this endeavor an
easier task."

"It is a relief to find a Christian source to introduce (our daughter) to
Psychology this next semester. I like the small assignments sprinkled
through each chapter, with lots of Internet supplemental resources.
Thank you again for helping us find such a good resource. We have
already recommended it to others, and will continue to do so."

"This is not just for homeschoolers, and using
that word in the title will immediately cut out
entire groups of people. This material is for
any Christian - especially Christians in any
public school setting." - Jeanette K.

We have had two of our children go on to
college and know first hand how valuable this
tool would have been! We highly recommend
it.

I am up to Chapter 5 in Homeschool Psych,
and so far it is EXCELLENT. I’m very
impressed. I am taking a long time to read it
because I’m making all sorts of notes on it.
You have truly created a unique and valuable
resource, and I’m so excited about it!

Psychology has been one subject that has often intimidated homeschooling
parents. Those who are Christians often are concerned that there is no room
for their faith in the study of psychology. Many of us have worried about what is
going to happen to our children when they go to college and are faced with
needing to take a psychology course. Dr. Tim Rice’s curriculum HOMESCHOOL
PSYCH: Preparing Christian Homeschool Students for Psychology 101 takes a
lot of the worry and confusion out of preparing your student for College
Psychology.
One thing that Christians are often accused of is ignoring accepted research
methods and empirical data. This curriculum accepts the value of Biblical and
supernatural knowledge, but does not consider empirical research as having no
value. That’s the kind of balance shown throughout the curriculum. The author
believes a Christian worldview recognizes the value of “putting ideas to the test”.
It is a wonderful balance of the science and the Scriptures.
The curriculum itself is detailed and includes twelve in-depth chapters. Each
chapter includes assignments that include definitions, writing assignments,
researching assignments with specific websites or topics, and scripture
readings. Dr. Rice does not just explain things well (always a plus), but he also
lets your student do his own research to see how and why the conclusions
mentioned are correct. The curriculum is PRACTICAL, covering such topics as
Modern Psychology, biological components of psychology, drugs, personality
tests and so very much more.
This is definitely a high school level course. The vocabulary is mature and
Dr. Rice wants your student to see what the world’s view is and what a Christian
Worldview is and how they differ. This requires a level of maturity that many
students will not reach until upper high school levels.
I’m impressed with the program and wish it had been around when my
children were growing up. Without having the tools to know specifically the
things they would be taught in their first psychology class, I was at a
disadvantage when the questions started coming up during that freshman year
of college. This curriculum would have equipped both my children and myself to
have an appropriate answer.

through high school. They have each graduated from college and are successful in their fields. Lynn still
