Course Description:
What does it mean to honor God with your body, mind, and spirit? In this 15-week self-paced Health course, you’ll discover how to care for the whole person God created you to be. Using Exploring Creation with Health and Nutrition by Apologia (available in print, ebook, or audiobook), you’ll explore practical and meaningful topics like personal hygiene, mental and emotional well-being, fitness, nutrition, relationships, and more—all through a biblical lens.
This course is built for flexibility:
- We’ll skim the Nutrition modules, since students have the option to take our full Science of Nutrition course for a deeper dive.
- Families can choose to include the Reproduction module as written or substitute it with their own choice of materials.
There are no tests—instead, you’ll complete thoughtful activities, creative projects, and personal journaling that encourage self-reflection and real-life application. You’ll learn how to develop lifelong habits that honor God, serve others, and strengthen your identity in Christ.
Perfect for students who want to grow in wisdom and stewardship of their health, this course invites you to see wellness not just as a checklist—but as a way to glorify God in every part of life.
Topics Include:
- Why Does Health Matter?
- Physical Influences on Thoughts and Feelings
- Mental and Emotional Stability
- Interpersonal Harmony
- Senses
- Body Systems and Structure
- Physical Fitness
- Infection and Immunity
- Spiritual Health
Semester Completion Policy
All self-paced courses must be completed within the semester in which the student is enrolled. While students may work through the material at their own pace, access does not extend beyond the active semester. This policy helps students stay on track, maintain academic momentum, and ensures coursework aligns properly with transcript and credit requirements. We encourage families to plan ahead and schedule consistent time each week for successful completion.
