Stir Up the Heart of Missions in Your Homeschool
July 14, 2009

This is what I love about having this blog. Being able to share some of the great things that I come across or that others share with me. It is especially great when it is FREE! Yes, an entire unit study designed and written for homeschoolers and it’s free. I haven’t looked through the entire year of lessons but wow, I am intrigued by what is offered here. Take a look and download it! Go to Harvestministry.org.
Here is an excerpt about the curriculum:
“The curriculum includes 160 day-by-day teaching plans, missionary highlights, motivational mission stories, crafts, songs, prayer projects, and hundreds of ways to incorporate a passion for the lost into nearly every subject (including Bible Study, Family Devotions, Reading, Writing, Geography, History, Art, Science, and even highlights for Math).
The curriculum presents a “whirlwind tour” of God’s enduring passion for missions, all-the-way-through-history and all-across-the-globe. Using weekly unit-studies, this curriculum is created to be used over a one-year school year, although it can be easily adapted to be used throughout two years. It can be used as a core curriculum guide (for elementary children), or as a supplement to another curriculum. It is written especially for elementary grade levels, but it can also be used for the whole family to study missions together.”

A Free Christian Book for You
March 24, 2009
![]()
“Do you long to let go of self-centeredness and be more eternally minded?”
“Do you desire to make a difference in the lost world but aren’t sure how to go about it?”
“The gripping message in Revolution in World Missions can radically change your life.”
This is the offer from Gospel for Asia:
Revolution in World Missions isn’t really a book about missions. It’s about what God can do with your heart when you let Him.
The book is free. And by that we mean completely free. No shipping or handling and no hidden fees.
So, there has to be a catch, right? Well, sort of. You need to give us two things. One is your mailing address, so we know where to send your free book. The other is your email address. We know you’re wondering what we’ll do with that. We don’t blame you — we feel the same way about giving out our email addresses.
We will send you a confirmation email. We won’t sell or rent your name to anyone and we won’t get you on a spam list.
We’re giving this book away because it changes people’s lives!
Please visit Gospel For Asia to receive your free copy.
I have not read this book but wanted to pass this offer on to you.
