“Everyone should have a base level understanding of the sciences and how they confirm biblical creation." Dr. Jason Lisle
Now junior high and high school homeschool students can study astronomy. Master Books offers the following science curricula to help your student discover the wonder of our God who created the planets, moon, stars, nebulae, galaxies, and comets. The night sky has always been fascinating to observe. With these courses, your students will enjoy learning while building up their faith in God while studying science!
Dr. Jason Lisle, a creation scientist with a Ph.D. in astrophysics, joined the podcast to discuss the importance of studying astronomy for every student. Here is one of my favorite quotes from this interview with Dr. Lisle: "Our purpose on earth is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. What better way to do that than by studying God's creation and seeing the ingeniousness of the Lord and the brilliance of His mind."
Watch this episode of the podcast with Dr. Lisle to learn how his books, Stargazer's Guide to the Night Sky and Taking Back Astronomy, reveal the wonder of God in the cosmos.
