Putting Your Curriculum to the Test: Using the Sunday Morning Method

Evaluate Homeschool Curriculum Worldview

Would You Let Your Curriculum Preach?

At Master Books, we’ve had the same heartbeat since 1975: God’s Word comes first—no exceptions, no compromises.

If you're like us, your faith shapes everything — from how you discipline to what you eat on Sunday afternoons. So here’s the big question: Does your homeschool curriculum reflect what you believe about God, truth, and the Bible?

Let’s dig into something we think every Christian homeschool family should consider…

Key Takeaways:

Curriculum = Worldview – Daily lessons shape your child’s faith more than weekly church.
Test It – Use the Sunday Morning Method: if you wouldn’t trust the publisher to preach at church, don’t trust them to teach your kids.
Stand on Truth – Choose #ProBible curriculum that builds every subject on God’s Word from Genesis forward.

Choosing Curriculum: Could it be More Important Than Choosing a Church?

Okay, hear us out: choosing your church matters—a LOT! But your choice of a homeschool curriculum might just matter more!

Why? Because while your kids might spend 1–2 hours a week at church, they spend hours every day learning from their curriculum. That material shapes their thinking, worldview, and future — whether you realize it or not.

God says in Hosea 4:6,

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.”

This isn’t about test scores — it’s about truth. What your kids learn today sets the stage for what they’ll stand for tomorrow.

What Kind of Worldview Are They Learning?

Every curriculum teaches a worldview —whether it claims to or not.

Secular: God’s out. Truth is relative.
Christian-ish: Mentions faith, adds a verse or two — but does it actually stand on the Bible?
#ProBible (That’s us!): God’s Word is the foundation — for every subject, at every level, from Genesis to Revelation.

Lots of companies wear the “Christian” label, but a little digging often shows the Bible takes a back seat. Sometimes it’s subtle. Sometimes it’s sneaky. And according to 2 Peter, 2 Timothy, and 2 Corinthians… we’ve been warned.

As Master Books author Bryan Osborne puts it:

“A secular curriculum is upfront about its beliefs. A so-called Christian curriculum that undermines the Bible can do even more harm, because it plants seeds of doubt under the label of faith.”

Try the Sunday Morning Method for Yourself!

Here’s an easy (and eye-opening) test we recommend:

Would you let the founder or president of your homeschool curriculum preach at your church on Sunday morning?

If the answer’s “no way,” it might be time to rethink your choice.

Ask yourself:

Do they have a testimony that shows the Bible comes first?
Does their material actually point your kids to Christ in every subject?

You are the shepherd of your home. Don’t hand your kids’ minds — and hearts — to someone who isn’t rooted in truth.

Build a Faith That Won’t Crack Under Pressure.

A true #ProBible curriculum doesn’t toss in a memory verse and call it a day. It builds every subject — science, history, reading — on the unshakeable truth of God’s Word.

At Master Books, we start with Genesis: Creation, the Fall, the Flood, and the family. Because if Genesis falls apart, the whole Gospel loses its foundation.

Before we created curriculum, we published some of the most trusted names in biblical apologetics — like Dr. Henry Morris, the father of modern creationism, and Ken Ham, founder of Answers in Genesis and the Ark Encounter.

And today? We offer over 700 resources designed to help your family grow in faith,

wisdom, and biblical confidence.

Stand Firm — You're Not Alone

Let’s face it: homeschooling can feel like swimming upstream — especially when you’re doing it with conviction. But you’re not crazy, and you’re not alone.
