Just a wonderful 🙌🏼 from today. We are doing #Transportation for our first unit this year (second year using GR) and during our “soft start” to school, we started looking at Ancient Rome on videos from “Drive Thru History” on RightNow Media (highly recommend!). I decided to stretch out Ancient Rome for a few weeks with books from the library and also ran across a Ben-Hur audiobook on the Adventures in Odyssey app (sooo good!) which we’ve been listening to in the car as we have run errands the past week or so. Today, I had unforeseen issues with my oldest kid who wasn’t able to use his hands much today because he fell on his hands/wrist on the swing outside (he’s okay!). But because of that, we finished the audiobook at home which tied in so perfectly to our lesson in Transportation. Get this. Today. We did lesson 4! Transportation under the ground! We talked about the underground church and the catacombs!!!🙌🏼 I didn’t plan this! 🙌🏼 Ben-Hur ends with the main characters in Rome under Emperor Nero and talking about how they are going to use the catacombs to continue spreading the Good News. Such a cool connection point today! Thank You, Jesus! 🙌🏼🙌🏼💙💙
