Michael Farris, founder of Home

School Legal Defense Association and the National

Center for Home Education, and the President of

Patrick Henry College,

has endorsed "World

Views of the Western World"

"One of the best programs

I have seen that offers a clearly Christian classical

education is David Quine's World Views of the Western

World, published by the

Cornerstone Curriculum Project…World Views is a three-year

program that is built largely around the works of

Francis Schaeffer. Students still read Homer, Socrates,

and Machiavelli. But these are balanced not only by

Schaeffer's works, but also by St. Augustine, Luther,

and Calvin. Cornerstone's World Views is in its first

edition and has many good features in place that make

it quite usable for most home schooling mothers who

don't have the time to sit and read classical literature

for fifteen to twenty hours a week.

Quine also employs a

number of videos that are great teaching tools

for making history and literature come alive --

the movie Gettysburg, for example, plus presentations

by Schaeffer.

World Views is academically

challenging, Christian-based, and provides a good

exposure to classical literature, history, art, and

music. It is superior to almost all high schools,

as well as to the liberal arts components offered

in most colleges and universities."
