Light: An Internet-Linked Unit Study
Enrich your children's lives with Light—this unit study reveals the mysteries of the light which God created for us. You'll begin with God's words, "Let there be light," then embark on a fascinating journey through the centuries, as His children discover the physical properties of light while they come to understand that the character of God can be comprehended by observing what light is and what it does. Together, you and your students will:
Learn about the physical characteristics of light as discovered by scientists throughout history; Learn how light is used in the Bible; how it is symbolic of the Glory of God, His purity, His wisdom, and His guidance; See how the creation and beauty of light reveal God, and that the physical properties of light are a picture of God: He is radiant or luminous energy which allows us to perform the functions of physical sight and spiritual sight; Learn that apart from the light of the Word, we cannot see where we are or what we are doing, nor can we serve God effectively. Light is a form of energy and may be produced in many different ways, not just by sun and stars. On the forth day of creation God caused the light of the sun to rule (govern) the day and the light of the moon and the stars to rule the night. Psalms 19:1 says, The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands. God’s lights in skies unquestionably declare God’s glory. The study of light helps us to understand and appreciate the world God has created. Light has many applications in the Bible, physical, spiritual, moral or figurative. See more below.

God's Lamp: Man's Light
By Dr. John Garr. God's Lamp, Man's Light is a masterful analysis of the menorah, the only biblical symbol that has the distinction of being designed by God himself. The only comprehensive study of the menorah in existence, this book is filled with valuable information about the history, design, and function of the menorah in both the Israelite sanctuary and in the earliest church. Dr. Garr also analyzes biblical themes connected with the menorah, including light, fire, the tree of life. He discusses thoroughly the menorah’s messianic imagery. He also evaluates individual men and women, Israel, and the church as God’s living menorah, fulfilling the commission of being the light of the world.

| I was blown away by the Light unit study. We began because I thought it was a subject we "had" to cover. What a delight! I'm amazed at how many spiritual lessons flow throughout the unit as we are learning science. I enjoyed it before I began teaching, then learned that much more once we worked together. I was very impressed with the depth in every lesson. My children are 9, 12 and 16. We all love the HOW approach! Thank you.—Renee, Science Phobic Mom |
