My dh and  I are excited about this online lecture course being offered by Hillsdale College.  It is imperative to us that we train our children to think from a biblical worldview especially when history is concerned.  God mighty hand is so evident throughout history.

America was founded on solid biblical principles and yet we have strayed so far from the original design of the US Constitution.

While taking advantage of this course,  my prayer is to truly teach my children the true meaning of the Constitution.  I believe it would make an informative High School credit, too.

Begins February 20, 2012!About Constitution 101
