This course will combine American Government and Economics. In American Government (2 quarters), students will study the US Government from a biblical perspective and develop critical-thinking skills in analyzing how history and government are crucial for decision-making on local, state, and national issues. Students will explore America’s foundations, the US Constitution, the three branches of government, and political systems. In Economics (2 quarters), students will examine basic economic principles and how these principles work in business firms, financial markets, and government. It includes a practical analysis of the use of the economic tenets in managing household finances (budgeting, banking, debt, credit, and interest) within a free market and biblical worldview.
