Elements of Faith: A Creation-based Journey Through the Periodic Table is a devotional-style guide to the Periodic Table. Designed as a 36-week pre-chemistry homeschool course for junior high students, Elements of Faith brings the Periodic Table to life and shows how each element relates to God’s creation.

Each chapter focuses on one element. Students will learn the etymology of the word (Greek, Hebrew, or Latin), an analysis of the element, and other interesting facts. A biblical worldview of each element is presented to include a relating Bible verse, a God-centered application, and a prayer. Complete with lesson plans, easy-to-implement labs, quizzes, and tests, you'll find everything you need in this one amazing resource!

Full color pages and pictures help make this curriculum fun for students. Even students who do not usually love science courses love Elements of Faith.

Elements of Faith can also be used as a supplement to high school chemistry and a Bible curriculum or devotional.

This text is written by Richard D. Duncan, a professional engineer with a bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering from the University of Cincinnati.

I love this curriculum!
Review by LLB
The history of each element from the Periodic Table is explored and the elements themselves are tied in with learning about their Creator and applying that knowledge to practical applications in Christlikeness. The lessons and quizzes are able to be done independently by the student. The science experiments need some supervision or parental involvement, depending on the needs/level of the student. My 7th grader is enjoying working through this book on her own and to my pleasant surprise, my elementary students are enjoying a wonderful complementary course with the Adventures in the Scientific Method. They have been able to join together with my middle schooler on some of the experiments.
Faith based learning about the Periodic Table
Review by Tamra
My son and I are really enjoying this study as an elective type course. Through this course he is learning about the periodic table and all of the elements, but it's also through a faith based curriculum. We love this approach to learning the elements. I have also learned things that I didn't know and have been able to go back into my Bible and jot down notes. It makes each element so much more interesting to learn about and how it is relevant to us as Christians. I wish I would've had the opportunity to learn the periodic table this way in school. It is helping him remember so much more than just the facts. I highly recommend it!
Great intro to chemistry

Review by Carol
This is a great science book not only to learn the Periodic Table, but to keep on the shelf for reference for the parents too. I look forward to studying this book with my son this year.
Not a boring science book!
Review by marilyn
This science was a favorite!! My son learned so much without being overwelmed:) I love how it teaches the periodic table without being dry and boring.
It's not just a science book though, theres so many interesting history stories and great Bible teaching mixed in, I'm glad we picked this one!
Interesting and Effective!
Review by AhsokaPoodle
We hopped into this curriculum mid year of 8th grade after an attempt at a different science text from another company found my son bogged down and frustrated. This curriculum SAVED the year!! His grades went from C's and D's to A's and B's!! He is interested in the material and learning a lot. Wonderful prep for high school science next year.
Independent work
Review by Elizabeth
I love this curriculum for my 7th grade daughter. It is a full years worth of quality, independent work. This will pep her for high school. I also love how scripture is wisely added. Please more like this set up Master Books!!

I did this together with my 7th and 10th graders. Great pre chemistry class and introduction to the Periodic Table from a biblical worldview. Short lessons, fascinating trivia facts for each element, beautiful photos.
Great curriculum!
Review by bawg
My son loved this course and finished ahead of schedule because he enjoyed it. My husband also really liked it so much that I teased about buying him a book also.
Valuable Course
Review by Julie
Such a fun course. Each lesson is a short read and follows with a short quiz. Don't be fooled though, it may be short but it is full of so much information. Colorful and interesting pages. I love how the book ties God into the elements! This book will not disappoint!
