    Foundations in Faith offers homeschool families a simplified study of biblical doctrines to help teens and preteens learn the foundational truths that will guide them for the rest of their lives. This Bible elective course focuses on the teachings of Scripture. Your student will learn the primary doctrines; the basics on which all true Christian believe. Secondary doctrines (those that do not impact salvation) are not addressed in this course.

    Foundations in Faith offers an overview of systematic theology using the Bible as the ultimate authority with creeds, confessions, and catechisms as helpful tools. Many of the creeds and confessions were written by church councils who were seeking to correct errors that had arisen in the church. Catechisms use a question-and-answer format to teach a summary of the principles.

    Course Objectives:

    • Develop a deeper understanding of the purpose and importance of church doctrine
    • Learn to discern biblical truth from cultural assumptions and popular faith myths
    • Master spiritual disciplines that enable you to go deeper in your faith and understanding
    • Explore important foundational insight into crucial aspects of biblical truths

    Course Features:

    • Quick, targeted lessons – 20 to 30 minutes, 5 days a week.
    • Includes worksheets and answer keys; incorporates numerous passages of God’s Word
    • Incorporates four tests – one for each quarter
    • A one-year course designed for grades 7-12. 1 Year / 1 Credit.
    • The NKJV was used to create the course. If your student prefers a different version, please remember to adjust answers regarding Scriptures to your preferred version

    What to Expect

    Each lesson is two pages and includes doctrinal sources, biblical text, and teaching. The student will need a Bible to look up various verses on worksheets and explore other verses suggested throughout the course. Testing occurs after every quarter and tests are found in the back of the book.

    • Great for God: Missionaries Who Changed the World, by David Shibley. (included in this set)

    Great curriculum…terrible tests!
    Review by Melissa
    I love this curriculum! We just fished quarter one it’s given me the opportunity to have some great thought provoking conversations with my son. He’s able to finish it quickly each day and I feel like he’s learning! My problem was the test…we just skipped it! The benefits of homeschooling
    Very nice!
    Review by Heather
    This is a beautiful course! We started it with our son when he was 12 and it was a little bit hard for him. Going to wait a year or 2 so he can understand it better and learn more from it. Very excited for this.
    Very Beneficial
    Review by Sarah S.
    My son and daughter both enjoyed this curriculum. It addressed several questions that they had and brought up others that we were able to work through together. They both really enjoyed learning about the different missionaries and their lives. It made us all aware of the challenges that other believers have faced for doing the work God had for them. Our family highly recommends this curriculum.
    Excellent. Highly recommended.
    Review by Katrina
    My 8th grade son and I are working through this study together. We are 3/4 of the way through the study and it's time to leave a review. I HIGHLY recommend this study. The lessons are short but PACKED with doctrine. We read and study through most lessons together but occasionally he does them on his own. I always read the Great for God missionary bios aloud and we discuss the questions. I think 8th-9th grade is a perfect age for this foundational study. It has been a 10 out of 10!
    Wonderful study
    Review by Heather
    My 9th grader is using Foundations in Faith this year and it has been a solid study on doctrine and church history. He has also enjoyed the missionary biographies. Many times this study has led us to have good conversations about topics such as baptism and prayer. Highly recommend!
    Fantastic
    Review by debbie
    I have absolutely loved going through this book as a group subject with my kids! We've learned so much, and been challenged in good ways.
    Difficult for a 7th grader
    Review by Raychal
    I have given 4 stars because my 7th grader had a difficult time understanding the theology in this study. I have set it aside to use when she is a bit older because the curriculum is excellent!
    Great Course
    Review by Victoria
    My 11th grader enjoyed solidifying his faith this school year with Foundations in Faith. He said it helped him develop a deeper understanding of theology and recommends all our kids go through it.
    Peace of Mind
    Review by Mary Clare
    A perfect way to encourage family style learning and discussions. As parents we can be concerned that we may miss teaching an important point before our children launch into the world. This curriculum offers peace of mind. While the Holy Spirit is the author of all knowledge, we have a responsibility to put in the work. I'm so grateful for this resource that reaches an age demographic that most publishers leave out. Way to go Masterbooks!
    Wonderful course to help a young child grow in their faith
    Review by Kathleen
    With this book your student will: discover foundational aspects of biblical truth, learn to discern biblical truth from cultural assumptions, understand church doctrine & gain a deeper understanding of their faith. You are not just hearing the author's opinion here, he backs it up with scripture and asks the student to test his statements with scripture. Each lesson has different activities which we love. There is vocabulary/definitions in every lesson. This book asks and answers many questions that we all seem to wonder about the Bible and our faith. We really loved this book. I definitely recommend this for high school students (and adults who want to have a greater understanding of biblical truth).
