Help your child understand the world Jesus entered—and how history changed because of it
History makes far more sense when students can see the bigger story.
Many children learn about Ancient Greece, Rome, and the New Testament separately—but when these subjects are connected, students begin to understand how God worked through real people, real empires, and real history.
The New Testament, Greece & Rome Self-Paced Course brings together biblical studies and ancient history in one engaging, chronological learning experience rooted in a classical Christian worldview.
✔ No teaching required
✔ No grading required
✔ Fully self-paced
✔ 1 full year of access
Discover the World Into Which Christ Was Born
Why did the Roman Empire matter?
How did Greek culture shape the ancient world?
What was happening historically during the life of Christ and the early church?
This course helps students connect:
- the rise of Greece and Rome
- the culture of the ancient world
- the spread of Christianity
- the historical setting of the New Testament
Instead of isolated facts, students gain a connected understanding of history—and God’s providence through it.
A Classical Christian Approach to History
At Veritas, we believe history should be taught chronologically and through the lens of Scripture.
Students study 32 important events spanning from the Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations to the fall of the Western Roman Empire.
Through this approach, students:
- build lasting historical understanding
- strengthen biblical literacy
- develop worldview discernment
- learn how civilizations shape culture—and how truth transforms it
This is more than memorization. It's a meaningful historical formation.

My kids LOVE this history!

My kids LOVE this history! It’s fun, engaging, and they’re learning at the same time. It saves me time as a Mom to be able to reach around!
I wish I had been taught history as thoroughly as this!

We use the self paced courses (I have 5 kids). Each kid we've done it for, loves it and learns so much. And when I talk about how great they are to people, I often hear concern about having their kids in front of screens. But I'd say this: do you do TV *at all* with your child? Ok, turn that off and do this instead. They learn an incredible amount from this, and it is good, high level content. This is vetted stuff, unlike the television. This is filling their minds with good things, unlike the television. We don't do TV in our family at all (don't own one), or video games, etc, but we do Veritas' self paced programs. The kids' use their brains, and gain tons of knowledge in the process. So if you're concerned about screen time, there is a solution outside of not doing a highly educational learning program online. I wish I had been taught history as thoroughly as this! It engages all types of learners and connects the dots in history. It excites them and it is challenging.
It brought the history to life for my son.

We did the SP courses for Bible and History. I appreciated the characters and the way the information was presented. Being able to visually see the areas that were being talked about helped in remembering the content. It brought the history to life for my son.
It is like they know their language or something! 😂

Our favorite part [about Veritas Self-Paced courses] is how they mix teaching and games to make kids understand the lesson. It is like they know their language or something! 😂
We love the self paced History and Bible!

We love the self paced History and Bible! We’ve already signed up for year #3! We all watch together in the kitchen every morning while I chop veggies and prep dinner.
IT'S AMAZING!!!

We just had the opportunity to try the new platform for Self-Paced. IT'S AMAZING!!! I've made my kids print off every worksheet and quiz in the past so we could review them together. This resulted in many tears each time a child forgot and we would get upset because we couldn't help them when they got a bad grade on something so they could understand what went wrong. I am SO HAPPY to see that I can now access their results in detail!! And my printer will be happy to not be printing several tests and worksheets and quizzes for 3 kids each week! Thank you!
Thanks for being a beacon of truth in this world!

Thanks for the great coursework in the Omnibus curriculum! I am a grown-up and I am taking these courses myself and they have been so inspiring to me. I have integrated a lot of materials into the worldview lessons I've been teaching in my church's youth group. Both my kids are taking Omnibus SP courses even though they are not homeschooled but go to a christian school. Omnibus and the Elementary level Bible and History courses are great additions to their school curriculum! Thanks for being a beacon of truth in this world!
Thanks for making it fun, engaging, and challenging 👏

My elementary and middle school students proved to know much more about history using this program than the average public High School student. We love this program! Thanks for making it fun, engaging, and challenging 👏
I LOVE Veritas Press!
