Grieving over Grammar 40g $1
A Bible study by Earl & Diane Rodd. An expose of modern methods of teaching grammar. These methods are compared against Biblical methods of education. The reader is lead to apply Biblical methods to the teaching of English grammar. Modern methods fail students who are left without the understanding of their native language which is necessary for clear, concise written and oral communcation for the foundation necessary to learn a foreign language. Students are left frustrated by their failures with no instruction in how to improve. These failed methods are widely taught in colleges and universities (even Christian ones) and therefore heavily influence many curricula.

The Importance of Teaching Phonics Biblically 40g $1
A Bible study by Earl & Diane Rodd. Because English is a phonetic language, reading is best taught using phonics. A number of phonics methods are in use in schools and among home educators. Before considering which phonics program or method to use, we must first consider God's purpose for language and communcation and the Biblical method of education. This pamphlet starts with these basic considerations and then applies the Biblical method to teaching phonics. The Biblical method is contrasted with secular humanistic methods.
