Class Description:
I will present material covered in the text Total Health. This textbook presents the practical knowledge that we have about the human body and factors that affect its well-being with an emphasis on godly principles that should guide the student as they make choices that will affect their body. The author of the text discusses the consequences of all our choices, both good and bad, that will impact our health. This is a high school course which covers some “adult” topics including STDs, drugs and alcohol, but always in the context of being created in the image of God and the biblical principles which should direct our actions.
