World Religions Course Guide
The study of World Religions offers an important teaching moment during a teen’s formative years. This Course Guide provides an easy-to-understand look at the history and tenets of the world’s major religions, explored through the lens of the Bible.
This course is ideal for both an individual student and small group. It is a very popular homeschool co-op study for both middle and high school students.
World Religions Course Guide plus DSST prep
This 100+ page Course-for-Credit Guide is specifically designed to prepare students to earn college credit while engaging them in an age-appropriate study of today’s major world religions. This study can be completed in one-semester and is an excellent course for students in 7th grade and up.
Parent involvement is encouraged with minimal preparation time required. Both authors have enjoyed teaching this course to several 7-12th grade groups, culminating with students passing the Introduction to World Religions DSST exam. Why a World Religions Course Guide? While this subject can be studied in college, it truly is a great study for all students to engage in before launching. The difficulty is the lack of interesting and age-appropriate study material. We decided to solve that. We hope you enjoy learning with your students!
In addition to the Course Guide, students will need a copy of the corresponding text available from online booksellers (Amazon or Addall): The Kingfisher Book of Religions ISBN 978-0753451991

What you have to say …
“This was the first study group we did, and every student in the group passed their test to earn college credits! FANTASTIC! It gave them confidence to try more down the road, too.” ~Susan, July 2020
“I just wanted to let you know that my daughter took your “Introduction to World Religions” course this past semester and the DSST exam today at the local community college. She just completed her freshman year of high school. Taking the course and the exam have given her knowledge as well as a confidence in herself that she can study and learn and succeed! Thank you!” ~April 2019
“In the words of my 13 yr old homeschooler – W.O.W.!!! This is an awesome find. Thanks for taking the time to put this together for us. God bless you.” ~Janice, Nov 2018
“Studying World Religions has been eye opening and valuable to our family. We have had conversations that I know that we wouldn’t have had otherwise. It has taken some of the mystery out of “other options”; options that our children will have more exposure to and may be curious about when they are not under our roof. What better time to study, reflect, wrestle, bring darkness to light, and let the Truth surface. This is another way that can ground our children in their beliefs and the truth of the Bible and the one and only true God.” ~ Jane, Parent
“The Course Guide questions were really helpful in cementing the information in my memory, and the introductory paragraphs had information the textbooks didn’t include. I really enjoyed this course and would recommend it for anyone.” ~ Kaitlyn F., Student
