Several team members have subject-specific degrees or master's degrees in education, specifically curriculum design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat do you believe?\u003c\/strong\u003e I believe that the Bible is the absolute authority in matters of faith and practice. It's 100% true, with no exceptions or figurative sections. I believe in the verbal, plenary inspiration of Scripture; in one God eternally existing in three Persons; in the creation of all things, including man, as the direct act of God; in eternally secure salvation by grace through faith in the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ; in the incarnation and virgin birth of Christ, and in His bodily resurrection; in the personal, bodily, premillennial return of the Lord Jesus Christ and His millennial reign on earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/easyCatalog.com\/flipbook_catalog\/108932#flipbook-108932\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e📄 Click here to view a sample.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Not Consumed","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42723595780192,"sku":"H-1st-Bundle","price":195.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1483\/4058\/files\/1st-grade-bundle-EDITED-0132_b9115ada-a7d3-43d1-b527-8b15e502233a.jpg?v=1777584977"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1483\/4058\/collections\/CON-listing-1.jpg?v=1773872571","url":"https:\/\/store.notconsumed.com\/collections\/1st-grade-homeschool-curriculum.oembed","provider":"Not Consumed","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
