Dave Raymond’s History Series can be taught in any order. American History (ages 12+) was designed as an accessible way to begin moral philosophy. Modernity (13+) expands this study to the world stage. Antiquity and Christendom (14+) start back at Creation and use Scripture to frame all of history so that students can see God’s whole story.
