More Information
Compared to other countries in the world, Americans enjoy an astonishing range of freedoms, including a broad range of rights related to religion. With Christian churches dotting almost every corner in communities across the nation, it is hard to remember there was a time when religious liberty was a distant dream and a cause for which many died.
In a thorough review of this troubled history, you will be introduced to the ideas and sacrifices that kept the dream of religious liberty alive until it became a powerful cornerstone of a fledging nation. While some leaders of the faith are revealed as religious persecutors, it is important to understand the political and social context of these events because it lays the foundation for the ideals and protections now found in the U.S. Constitution. The History of Religious Liberty:
- Reveals why the popular idea of the Enlightenment being at the heart of the Bill of Rights is simply wrong
- Takes an unflinching look at persecution of the Church as part of a well-researched survey of critical historical points
- Reflects the reaction of everyday Christians to the repressive forces of tyranny echoing in the struggle for religious liberty globally today.
These compelling stories of both well-known and obscure martyrs of the faith each help to advance the true birth of religious freedom. Their simple and courageous acts of defiance against tyranny and intolerance stand as a testament to the truth that God is the ultimate author of liberty.

The Teacher’s Guide includes a schedule, and the answers to the student pages which have several questions for each chapter reading.
The teacher guide for The History of Religious Liberty course is very thorough and well organized. It includes a weekly lesson schedule, student worksheets, exams (quizzes and final exam), and an answer key. The suggested daily schedule is set up to cover the text over 34 weeks, 5 days a week. Typically, there is a few days of reading a week, followed with a couple of days to complete the written work included in the worksheet. There are 1-2 worksheets for each chapter and quizzes that review every four chapters. The last week of the course (Week 34) is set aside to prepare/study for the final exam - it is of essay form.
I really appreciate the variety of questions within the worksheets. Some are simply to show evidence of content read - the answer is very easily found within the student textbook. Others get the student thinking beyond the text and allow for a deeper reflection of the text. The bonus questions included are excellent and allow for connections to be made with the text to biblical history, opportunities to take a deeper look or read further into something covered in the text, or even to give first hand experience in field trip ideas/recommendations.
Quizzes include 10 questions for each quiz that covers four chapters. Each question requires a short written response. The final exam includes one prompt to be answered in a well-written essay. The answer key gives the teacher an quick summary of the general answer and how a student may respond to the questions.
The teacher guide is an excellent resource to help guide your student through this excellent course.
A difficult topic to study, but so important! This course will help you to understand that your freedom of religion is of upmost importance and must be understood. It takes you through the 1500s to the Bill of Rights in 1791 (from Tyndale to Madison), ending with a look into the current state of religious freedom. You will study the men that fought and sacrificed to create the religious liberty we have in America.
I highly recommend this course to every high school student. And even to anyone who might be interested in the topic and history of religious liberty.
This course geared for high school students is composed of a student edition, as well as teachers guide. Included is a weekly lesson schedule, student worksheets, quizzes, final exams, as well as answer keys. I love how students are equipped with biblical truths and firm foundations to defend their faith. The daily schedule included makes it manageable for a student to complete this course self directed. I am impressed with the content and topics covered throughout this one year course!
