“One of my greatest fears when I started homeschooling was, ‘How do I prepare my kids to stand strong in a changing world around them? User friendly, solid biblically, academically sound, and culturally relevant…Philosophy Adventure was written to help homeschooling parents teach their children to… discern and defend truth.” ”

“A philosophy curriculum your high schoolers will just love—looks like a magazine and reads like one, too. Robust and challenging…engaging and readable…Philosophy Adventure is more than a course on thinkers, it’s a course in how to think for yourself and how to effectively share those thoughts with others. And it’s a course you and your students won’t be able to put down!”

“Many parents desire to teach their children about philosophy, but don’t know how to introduce them to the subject without exposing them to harmful myths and deception.

“How pleasant and sustaining a thought that as comprehensive and well-conceived a resource as Philosophy Adventure exists. Bravo, Mrs. Farrell, for blessing this generation with a superb pedagogical tool that demystifies a corpus of long neglected western philosophy. Such a work is long overdue.”

For Such A Time As This Ministries
“At earlier times in history, Christians had the luxury of being able to ignore the formal discipline of philosophy. However, if the events of the last 100 years have shown us anything, it is that philosophical ideas have practical consequences. It is therefore imperative that Christian students be equipped with the tools for understanding philosophy. Philosophy Adventure™ … presents the rich legacy of the pre-Socratics in an exciting, accessible manner. It brings ancient philosophy alive.”

“This captivating overview of pre-Socratic philosophers not only will help instill a love for knowledge and wisdom in your child’s heart and mind, but even more it will fuel the growing flames of faith and Christian worldview at a critical point in your child’s life. This is the kind of wholehearted learning that fueled our own family’s love of learning. I heartily recommend this adventure.”
