From a family recently taking the course:

This is the first curriculum, in 25 years of homeschooling, I've used that I can't wait to do again with my kids because I know as we walk this out in real life we'll dig deeper into the truths in it! -Sue, recent student

It is all that ... and much more. Matt Powers is a great teacher with an amazing attitude, smile and the perfect level of information for young and old alike! I highly recommend his course if you’re looking for something for the whole family! You won’t be disappointed.” — Stephen, recent student
