The Forest and the Trees

""Why do we have to learn this?"" For as long as there have been students, teachers have been answering this question, but we haven't always answered it very well--for our students or for ourselves. We sometimes forget that everything we teach, whether ""sacred"" or ""secular,"" has value because it is part of God's truth, and integrating that truth across the curriculum is what makes an education Christian. This book from a father-and-daughter team of seasoned Christian educators offers a comprehensive, biblically based presentation of integration. Its goal is to help readers view all aspects of the curriculum within the framework of God's story as told from Genesis to Revelation. By organizing subject areas under five broad categories--nature, people, communication, beauty, and ultimate issues--the authors demonstrate that each subject area flows from the biblical story. Each chapter concludes with a summary of the truths presented, a set of teacher tips, and a list of additional resources. Richard A. Widder invested thirty-three years in public education as a teacher and school psychologist, followed by nine years in secondary administration and guidance work at Heritage Christian Schools, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He has also served for more than thirty years on the board of Heritage Christian Schools. Wendy Widder taught elementary school at Heritage Christian Schools, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for eight years. She is the author of Living Whole Without a Better Half (2000) and A Match Made in Heaven: How Singles and the Church Can Live Happily Ever After (2003).

In the year 1223, the Catholic Church establishes the Order of the White Guard to contend with unique foes that are a far cry from those of the Knights Templar: vampires. The members of the order are exceptional themselves. They're garou -- werewolves.Ireland teems with vampires, more than any other country, and the House of Blevins stands between the creatures and their hapless victims. With weapons of silver, they are the scourge of the undead. Only one, a powerful and insane elder vampire, continually escapes their grasp, and stopping him may exact a terrible price. The volatile relationships of the garou set the backdrop for a spellbinding tale of good versus evil, logic versus emotion, and reason versus madness.
