225 On the Same (Greco-Roman) Page

AMDG. Join Bonnie, Steven, and Jordan for the next installment in their continuing conversation about the humanities, sprinkled with fascinating tidbits of history and their best advice on reading The Iliad with your children or even on your own! The group discusses their own progress reading The Iliad with their families; the benefit to seeing a time before Christ; why we approach the gods differently than early Christians; the relationship between ancient history and myth; what to look for when reading The Iliad and what to talk about with your children. Whether you’re a student, homeschooling parent, or just a history buff, there is something in this conversation for you.   Kolbecast episodes mentioned & relevant   220 Decoding Mythology to Reveal Christianity (the first episode in this series) 196 Adaptable Asynchronous & Dynamic Digital Homeschool Options  102 A Great Commission, featuring former Kolbe teacher Ellen Finnegan  Texts referenced  Fr.
