Q. HOW IS THE SCIENCE AND ART OF GEOLOGY SET APART FROM OTHER GEOLOGY OR ART COURSES?

• There are notebook pages (to go with his video lessons) which guide students with Biblical reasoning.

• Heather Hall teaches art with a Biblical Framework (Biblical worldview, Bible principles, Word Studies, Biblical reasoning, and with the Timeline of Liberty).
