Fitting Words Classical Rhetoric (Bundle)
FITTING WORDS instructs students in the art of classical Rhetoric, providing them with tools of communication that will equip them for life. Intended for high school students and above, Fitting Words is a complete curriculum covering a year of instruction. In this course, students will learn the theory of using words well, study the greatest speeches of all time, and practice the skills of effective oratory.
What is Rhetoric and why do we need it? The short answer is that God created us as people of words, and He wants us to use them in a fitting way. “A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver” (Proverbs 25:11). Rhetoric is the art of using words well, and is measured by our ability to teach men the truth, to move men to goodness, and to delight men with verbal beauty. Effective speaking and writing is informative, powerful, and elegant.
Purchase the full curriculum on this page, or individual parts HERE.
We also offer live classes for Fitting Words.

Four Guys in a Boat
$12.99Four Guys in a Boat: What’s All That About?
“When does a man quit the sea?” asked E.B. White. “Does he quit while he’s ahead, or wait till he makes some major mistake?”
Skipper and the crew seem to thrive pushing for the latter.
Sailing alongside killer whales. Flying the Canadian flag upside down while coasting blithely into Victoria. Debating who gets left behind the day they have to squeeze into the three-man lifeboat. Interrogated by the US Coast Guard. Running aground. Losing themselves in blinding sea fog. Standing rapt beneath Taps’ benediction as the American flag retires in Roche Harbor.
For Kjell, John, Ed, and Skipper, sailing is about far more than simply passing time on the water. It’s about the love of familiar faces and the thirst for new horizons—on land or sea. It’s about the bond created by the sheer accumulation of memories, just a few of which are in this book.

What else could explain why four grandpas (all north of sixty) spend four days navigating the San Juan islands every summer for fifteen years, when only one of them grew up sailing and he (given the opportunity) might cheerfully capsize the boat? -
