REFORMED THEOLOGY CURRICULUM

About

HISTORY:

Little Pilgrims Theology was created in 2017 by Brandon and Jeannette Mills all to the praise, honor, and glory of God. They were convicted early on to homeschool their children, and were always seeking biblical and creative ways to train them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Unfortunately, most of the resources they came across were either too shallow, too scholarly, contained unbiblical teachings and/or images of the Godhead, or some combination of all of the above. This was disheartening. Certainly, a gap existed between introductory-level and seminary-level theological education, and the desire to bridge that gap was a driving motivator for the creation of Little Pilgrims Theology. After many long hours in front of computer screens, and lots of study, an early version of Little Pilgrims Theology came to life with three subjects, ABC Theology, Basics of the Faith, and Church History.


Since inception, Little Pilgrims Theology has grown to 17 subjects with a total of over 150 individual week-long lessons. In 2022 Little Pilgrims Theology made the transition to 501(c)(3) nonprofit status. Our mission is still the same. We exist to take the gospel and sound doctrine to the world, to contribute to the theological education and training of many sons and daughters who by faith would receive and rest in Christ Jesus alone as their only Redeemer. There is much work to do still, to continue to serve and build up Christ's church in the truth of scripture by His grace. If the Lord wills it, we hope to expand into other languages, support multiple Bible versions, add a music element, and continue creating more content in the days to come. You can support all of these things with a one-time or recurring tax-deductable donation here.

THE CURRICULUM:

Little Pilgrims Theology is all about furthering the kingdom of God by explaining the gospel of Jesus Christ according to scripture alone. We are confessionally Reformed according to the 1689 2LBCF. The content here has been thoroughly examined and considered, to the best of our ability, to serve as a a conduit for the gospel and sound doctrine for the edification of the church.

Our passion is presenting eternal treasures of the faith to help equip the church to confidently stand firm in the faith; discerning what is and what is not the truth. Little Pilgrims Theology is not meant to be a replacement for the Bible, nor for a solid local church, but it is meant to be a supplement to all of these. Our goal is simply to put a trustworthy theological resource in the hands of parents, educators, and learners. Little Pilgrims Theology is flexible enough so that the content can serve for individual study, 15 minute family devotions, or even 60 minute church class sessions. Lesson plan guides are included for these scenarios. The content of Little Pilgrims Theology is organized systematically according to major subjects and disciplines of theology. There are no prerequisites for any subject. The Catechism subject is useful for ages 3+, while the other subjects are best for ages 7+.

Our prayer is that Little Pilgrims Theology brings the gospel of Jesus Christ and sound teaching to whomever might profit from it; young and old alike, and that God would graciously open the ears of the lost to grant faith and repentance as fruits of a new life in Christ Jesus. We pray also for those that have already trusted in Christ; that they would continue to find great joy and rest in Him alone, and that they would keep abiding in Christ, eagerly awaiting His glorious return.


"For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God." Eph. 2:8
