About 10 years ago, when I published
the first edition of Homeschool Psych: Preparing Christian Homeschool Students
for Psych 101, it was hard to get people to read it. When they did, they said, “great!”
“much needed” “valuable resource”.
As an independent publisher, it was
hard getting the word out. But gradually, via word of mouth, referrals, and
recommendations, the word spread. Today thousands of Christian students use my
books to do two things. #1 Introduce themselves to the study of God’s grandest
creation – the human mind. #2 Expose themselves to the worldview assumptions
underlying modern psychology’s major theories and school-of-thought.
Though I think that every Christian
high school student should take a psychology class, many do not. That’s why I
wrote, It’s Not That Simple Natty Rose. Fresh out of homeschool, my heroine
comes face-to-face with psychology professor Dr. Ernst Weber. Dr. Weber is a
composite of evolutionary naturalist psychology professors found on campus
across the country. He ridicules Natty Rose’s worldview as naïve, immature, and
silly. He’s not a nice guy.
My prayer is that students are ready
for the likes of Dr. Weber.
