I would like to start working through the New testament with my 6th-10th grade children. I know the description says I can use these books separately from the history guides, but do the history guides offer more readings? I am planning on using the SCM history guides but not as you probably intend. I want to separate the history, bible, and geography and choose the parts we want to do–such as: doing the history out of one guide, a different geography, and bible study from another. 🙂
So in order to get the most out of the Bible studies would you recommend I buy the guides?
I think the Bible studies are wonderful as stand alone studies. I think you might get more in depth understanding when using the corresponding history guide only because SCM so beautifully weaves Bible history in with history of other cultures, so you get a broader, richer understanding of what the world was like at that time. It certainly isnt necassary to use them withh the guides though. I am sure someone from SCM will chime in to answer your question better.
The history guides that cover the same epistles as the In the Word series of Bible studies do contain additional readings. The Family Bible Study lessons give more of an overview of each epistle, chapter by chapter, with a specific focus passage from each. If you want to have the most options from which to draw your choices, I would recommend you take a look at the guides in addition to the In the Word books. You should be able to view at least one Family Bible Study lesson in each of the free sample downloads for Middle Ages, Renaissance, and Reformation & Epistles; Early Modern & Epistles; and Modern Times & Epistles, Revelation.
