The Story of "The Father's Books"
The Father's Books is the on-line division of Resurrection Resources. It was founded by one home school family. The name "Resurrection Resources" was chosen with the on-line presence named "The Father's Books." These names were chosen to clarify the Christian intent and content of our products.
Mrs. Nash is the author of our textbooks, workbooks, and magazine. In 1990, Mrs. Nash began with a novel for a church ministry and Bible studies for a variety of classrooms. Then requests came from home school moms for home school courses. They wanted textbooks and workbooks written for the home school classroom with a Biblical worldview that would help teach their students how to write. Because of the teaching successes of her writing courses, Mrs. Nash also received requests to write home school textbooks in science, history, English, math, art, etc. Over the years since then, Mrs. Nash has written a variety of Biblically sound books and products that are used by parents, teachers, individuals, and students around the world.
Today, the original founding family continues to be deeply involved in all aspects of preparing home school textbooks for every subject (K-12). Mrs. Nash also understands that home school mothers need the support and love of another successful, aged home school mother. You can learn more about her on our magazine Author's page and our book Authors page. You can also learn from Mrs. Nash's wisdom by subscribing to her magazine.
Wisdom by Approach
Mrs. Nash's products are different because they were written by a qualified, experienced, and well-educated home school teacher who has worked one-on-one with students over many years. The benefit of this personal method of teaching is that it truly gets at the heart of how a student learns what he/she needs to learn. From this specialized interaction, she is able to create textbooks, workbooks, and educational products that connect with each student.
Through a combination of textbooks/workbooks, consumable textbooks, and "hands-on" products, Mrs. Nash's school subjects are designed so that long after a lecture is over or a textbook reading is assigned, your student will still have a tutor built right into his/her curriculum. This enhances a student's educational success during classroom time and study time.
Style for Education Success
Textbooks in classrooms often change in style and methodology from year to year as a school chooses different publishers for different subjects. This strategy may result from many financial or situational issues but does not always work to produce an effective educational result. A students of this strategy is often poorly trained with lopsided skills, but in reality may have a very good aptitude to learn.
Mrs. Nash's textbooks are thorough, well-thought out, and built on a careful methodology of teaching from year to year, grade level to grade level. She integrates several learning styles and skills in each workbook/worktext to create a more balanced student who is better equipped to enter the job market or higher education and to succeed.
Biblical Value and Ethics
Mrs. Nash works hard to keep her textbooks, workbooks, and products free of worldly ideas, philosophies, and practices while striving for each item to accurately handle the Word of God with maturity and balance. The miracle of the Resurrection and justification through faith in Jesus are pivotal. Mrs. Nash is a mature, born-again believer who not only has years of accumulated Bible study and seminary study, but also decades of walking with Him in the application and teaching of His truth.
Mrs. Nash's policy in preparing teaching and educational materials is to present and teach the truth of both the New Testament and Old Testament in an understandable, friendly format. This policy includes preparing school subjects so that your student is guided to discover Biblical truth as it is being taught. The maturity of Mrs. Nash, as well as her wisdom and depth of understanding the believer's walk, is also reflected in the contents of each course of study. Whether teaching character, wisdom, behavior, or knowledge, her books consistently present God's perspective, thereby building a firm foundation of Biblical truth in your student for his/her edification and maturation.
