Latin 2

History-changing battles, the birth and rise of Christianity, great poets and statesmen, classic art and architecture, and a language ordained by God to be heard throughout most of the known world—you’ll find all of this in Latin 2. Students see how man’s rebellion from God continued in the Roman age, how God’s overarching direction in history overcame that rebellion, and how God continued to work through historical events to redeem fallen man, providing a pathway back to fellowship with God. In Latin 2, the plots and the characters that populated ancient Rome come alive, and students are given a clear lens for looking into the heart of the Roman spirit. Students learn how to relate historical events to their Christian beliefs and learn ways to confront and challenge false ideas.

This course gives students a solid grounding in the structure of the language. Building on their knowledge of Latin grammar and vocabulary, students see how this language harkens back to the time of creation, when there was one language and God’s plan for His creation was unfolding across the ages. They discover the power of language as a vehicle for expressing God’s truth.

This course is approved by the NCAA® and the University of California.
