World History

The Mystery of History illuminates the tapestry of mankind and helps students identify the unifying threads which run from era to era—from the beginning of the world to modern times, one side of the globe to the other.

Christ-centered world history for all ages

The Mystery of History series provides a historically accurate, Christ-centered approach to world history for all ages. By incorporating hands-on activities along with reading, writing, and research projects, The Mystery of History offers something for all learning styles and supports all methods of education.

Chronological

Beginning with Creation, The Mystery of History four volume series presents world history in chronological order, covering every corner of the globe.
Volume I
Creation to the Resurrection (c. 4004 B.C. – c. A.D. 33)
Volume II
The Early Church and the Middle Ages (c. A.D. 33 – 1456)

Christian

The Mystery of History is distinctively written from a Christian worldview. Creation-based and standing on the authoritative Word of God, lessons in The Mystery of History are like pieces of a mosaic that reveal a much bigger picture and tell a much larger story. Together, they point toward God’s redemptive plan for mankind through the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

World history is far more than what man has or has not accomplished! From a biblical worldview, history tells us a bigger story, and one that is far grander than man can conceive. His-story is the slow, steady revelation of God to man, and mankind’s mixed response—some bow down to Him, some don’t. But the sovereign plans of the Lord remain the same, as Jesus Christ came ‘to seek and to save that which was lost.’
Luke 19:10
