During my first and only year at bible college, I had the ridiculous pleasure of sitting under the teaching of Dr. Jack Layman. He made history and western civ MIND BLOWING. He introduced me also to philosophy which fascinated me beyond words.
Over the course of those two semesters, he shared Francis Schaeffer's HOW SHOULD WE THEN LIVE video; the book was required reading. I am forever grateful for that time and for Dr. Layman helping bring my mind up to speed with how/why our culture IS the way it is.
Last night I was wow'ed all over when hubby and I started watching this with our two older children who are studying western civilization via a fantastic homeschool curriculum written by Linda Hobar called Mystery of History.
I love the way Schaeffer weaves in art and science along with religious practices while taking us along to places where it all happened. The filming is brilliant. Our 17 year old son who excels as a film maker, enjoyed the artistic story telling.
It helps me make sense anew of where we are today. I look forward to the next 10 weeks as we study and discuss ramifications. The conversation last night was stellar and lasted hours past the first lesson.
