Summary description:
The God’s Design series is a highly regarded, complete science curriculum for grades 1 through 8 in life science, earth science, physical science, and chemistry. In this award-winning curriculum the lessons are short, easy to teach, and take a hands-on approach, using ordinary household items for experiments and activities. But easy does not mean lacking in substance; God’s Design textbooks are very comprehensive. Most important, God’s Design authors Debbie and Richard Lawrence approach science from a biblical worldview, emphasizing God’s handiwork in the world around us and showing how real science supports biblical authority and the Genesis account of creation.

About the authors
AiG’s Dale Mason, publisher of ANSWERS magazine, shares a bit of background; “When we discovered this curriculum, several of us felt like doing cartwheels! Never before had we found such a thorough, Bible-based and Creator-centered set of textbooks for kids. God’s Design was so obviously a labor of love by people who intensely understood and could effectively write for grade-school children. Believe it or not, that’s a hard combination to find. We contacted the authors—Richard and Debbie Lawrence—and discovered that God’s Design was born out of the concern of this mom and dad for their own children. Both Richard and Debbie are trained engineers, and they spent years developing this complete science curriculum. We loved what they had done so much—including “the pre-suppositional” approach to God's Word, the fun lessons and experiments, the scientist biographies, the fact that each book can be used by multiple ages, etc.—that we asked if they would allow AiG to come alongside them by publishing it with an updated design and enhancements that they were unable to make on their own. After getting to know one-another and seeking the Lord's leading, we were both convinced of the wisdom of working together to take God’s Design to a whole new level of outreach. We are delighted that the fresh design has turned out even better than expected and is now receiving awards from such publications as THE OLD SCHOOL HOUSE magazine and PRACTICAL HOMESCHOOLING magazine. It's an amazing curricula.” To find out more, see AiG acquires God’s Design science curriculum and From frustration to blessing!
