Get to Know Consider the Years and the BP Companion

Consider the Years and the BP Companion are our two series of history texts for high schoolers. We now offer the Companion series for years Two and Three, and our newer Consider the Years series for years One and Four.

Both Consider the Years and the Companion cover Biblical and Church History side-by-side with World and U.S. History. Both are also loaded with pictures and fascinating facts to break up the narrative. With hundreds of images per year, plus plenty of colorful breaks in the text, these are not the dry texts that your high schoolers have come to dread. They are thorough and thought-provoking, but also fun.
