- Homeschool Bible Curriculum Review || Who Is God? Apologia Review
Today I’m excited to finally give you the full review of “The Who Is God?” Bible Curriculum.
~Resources Mentioned In This Book~
Who is God? Curriculum- www.apologia.c...
As far as images of Christ- Some Christians (ourselves included) hold to the belief in order to honor the second commandment, we avoid the use of visible images to portray or represent Jesus or any of the persons in the Trinity. So I just try to share when we use resources that do or do not use images in case that is anyone else conviction. I know for many it is not a concern and that is okay.
Here is a link that explains a little bit more of the conviction. raisingcovenant...

Thank you for reviewing this curriculum. Your review was helpful! I am glad I found your channel, you are my style. I love how you get right to the point and always give us a thoughtful and clear review. It’s very much appreciated! This has been on my wishlist and I’m looking forward to using it.
I’m so glad this helped.
Thank you so much for covering the images of Jesus! That was what I keep trying to figure out when researching Bible storybooks and curriculum.
You are so welcome!
This was such a helpful review! I was going to set this book aside until next year. But now I believe it will align nicely with Sonlight core F and MFW ECC. I’ll skip the notebooks though. These kids will have enough ‘work’ to do.
Same here. I didn’t feel like it was needed
I love that it’s global focused as we are a global Family!!! Im picky on Bible curriculum and devotionals as well!!! My kids have to speak to us before starting a bible plan on youversion!!! I personally use NLT and my son does!!! My twins read the message!!!
That’s great
Thanks for the review! I keep going back forth if I want to use this or not and this video was very helpful.
If you haven't looked it up yet ICB stands for International Children's Bible.🙂
Thank you!!
We love this! My girls are 9 and 12. We will be on book 3.
That is awesome
I loved this review and definitely have this on our “wish” list for the future. Have you also tried the NT/OT in Motion set(s)? I’m debating if I should start with those or go straight into this set. Thoughts? Thanks for the awesome and informative content!
I have not tried that one but I believe that one is geared towards younger kids and this is more middle school age. I could be wrong about that.
For God so loved the world…. Not just a select few he chooses and sends the rest to Hell. Glad this one isn’t reformed I’m going to pick it up!
So glad that this helped you figure out if it might work well for you!
@@LifeintheMundane Praise God for your godly response sister! :) As someone who is also reformed, I appreciate your honest and great review. Thanks so much!
Thanks for sharing! I didn't realize Apologia has studies outside of the sciences. I'll have to check it out!
They have a math curriculum that's awesome too!
Yes they have some really neat options
Thank you for the review! Just followed you!! :)
Glad this helped
Thank you! So helpful.
You are very welcome
Great review! Thanks!
You are very welcome
Thanks for the review!
Happy to share
This was a great in depth review and look into this curriculum! Can my kids grow up soon so I can use it?! Lol thanks for sharing!!!
So glad this helped
Around the 5 minute mark, you said something about truth vs other views. What other views? Other types of believers? Other religions?
Later you said, "accurate." Who, aside from God, can really say what is truth and what is accurate?
As for the translations, I am curious how much research you've done on the various translations that are out there. I, personally, wouldn't use the ones you mentioned that they use. I used to be OK with ESV until I did my homework. Yikes.
I was originally fairly sure that I was going to purchase and use this next year but I'm not so certain anymore. I could adapt it to fit our family but I don't know how comfortable I am with having to do that. Perhaps I could try finding a secondhand copy and reading through it myself first...
This isn't meant to be an attack on you or Apologia or anything like that, just honest feedback. You are definitely right when you talk about being picky with Bible stuff lol I think many of us are the same way haha. Thanks for doing this review!!
Other views as in other religions and worldviews. I have done a lot of research on translations and ESV and NASAB are the two we personally prefer and feel are the most accurate. I think based on the concerns you have mentioned that getting a used copy is a good idea. I have see many on Thriftbooks or FB Marketplace. Thank you for watching and commenting. I hope this is helpful.
awesome review thank you!
Thanks
This is so awesome😀.

Can I ask you about the “predestination” topic you addressed? I wasn’t sure what you were talking about. I have grown up my whole life in church. Been saved since I was a child. But I am just now as an adult trying to decide my own beliefs and convictions. Instead of just accepting that is what our church believes and not questioning where it came from or researching it for myself. (I can’t think of the word to describe that.)
Yes of course. I am so glad you are looking to scripture for the answers here is a short article that describes a bit about predestination and the verses that are used to explain it. www.crossway.org/articles/help-im-struggling-with-the-doctrine-of-predestination/?fbclid=IwAR1z2BLz7CVH8f482k4UOIRebYkx5dHPcaSgSc8iP-46hCYyc4tOcyN4-Qs
I would be happy to send you additional resources if that would be helpful just shoot me an email at lifeinthemundane@gmail.com
Predestination is unbiblical. Only two individuals were damned from the point of their creation. Both Judas and The Antichrist, which are both called The Son of Perdition. Don't trust me. Look and see what the bible says on this topic.
Deuteronomy 30:15-20
New International Version
15 See, I set before you today life and prosperity, death and destruction. 16 For I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, and to keep his commands, decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess.
17 But if your heart turns away and you are not obedient, and if you are drawn away to bow down to other gods and worship them, 18 I declare to you this day that you will certainly be destroyed. You will not live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess.
19 This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live 20 and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the Lord is your life, and he will give you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
Truest curious-what is reason for covering up the images of Jesus? I’ve haven’t heard of that before.
Some Christians (ourselves included) hold to the belief in order to honor the second commandment, we avoid the use of visible images to portray or represent Jesus or any of the persons in the Trinity. So I just try to share when we use resources that do or do not use images in case that is anyone else conviction. I know for many it is not a concern and that is okay.

@@LifeintheMundane thank you for explaining this to me. I really didn’t know about this at all.
I picked up Who Am I as a possibility to use for next year, but we haven’t done Who is God. I ended up getting another curriculum instead because I wasn’t sure if we could jump right into volume 2, without having done the first. Do you think we could? I’m now considering using this for my middle girls and going ahead and using the 2nd curriculum for my high schoolers (who are turning 14 soon) this year.
I think you could definitely do it but I personally would recommend doing them in order bc they kind of build on each other from my understanding
@@LifeintheMundane That is good to know, thank you!
To make this book last for a whole school year, how many minutes on average do you spend on it per school day?
We did it two days a week for about 30min and did it in one semester but you could time it out to be 15min a day 2-3 times a week
I've found a lot of great things we'd like to do,such as this, but it seems like they are all geared toward older kids. What would you recommend for a 6 and 4 year old?
Great question. Honestly for those ages I like to focus on foundations and do catechism memory and bible reading. Here are some other resources you might like ua-cam.com/video/I9wzy2UIFEs/v-deo.html
Is jesus christ a God? Or only the Father is one only god
There is only one God but in three persons. God the father, son (Jesus Christ), the Holy Spirit.
@@LifeintheMundane I don't understand. The bible did say only one God and it never say it have 3 person in 1 unity. Where is this 3 person in bible.
