I've been very busy working on a few projects that I couldn't show on my blog just yet. I can finally show you one of them now. I designed the front and back cover for this book:

| The Rending of Christendom: Readings and Questions by Phillip Campbell |
My friend Phillip Campbell, a history teacher for Homeschool Connections, has created an excellent high-school level course on the Reformation/Counter-Reformation era based on primary source documents. The book is designed to follow the online course, but it can certainly stand alone as it's own curriculum.
The
main book "The Rending of Christendom" has study questions after each
reading, and there is a separate answer key available. There is
currently a 15% off sale if you buy both together:
I'm
about halfway through, and I think the selection of readings provides a
very broad and thorough understanding of the key players and events
without being overwhelming. I took a church history elective class at my
secular university, and I have to say that reading actual primary
sources like these acted as an antidote to my high school history
textbooks and marked the beginning of my conversion process from
Protestantism to Catholicism. If I know you in real life, I'd be happy
to show you my copy.
I don't profit at all from sales of this book, I just think it's a really great idea and worth promoting.
