Can Outsiders Be Insiders?
By Fr. Peter M.J. Stravinskas
What does the Catholic Church mean by its doctrine "Outside the Church There Is No Salvation"? Does this mean that non-Catholics can't be saved? What's the official Catholic teaching, past and present, about the Church's mission to evangelize non-Catholics and bring them into eternal life in Christ? A noted theologian answers these and other crucial questions.

This site has information on topics with patron saints, and profiles of those saints. Profiles have portraits, biographical information, areas of patronage, prayers, links to related sites, readings, etc. It's heavily cross-indexed, and there are several ways to access the information.

The Warren Carroll Database
This is a searchable historical event database built from material provided by Dr. Warren H. Carroll. As he has worked on his monumental seven-volume History of Christendom over the past twenty years, Dr. Carroll has kept notes on the principal events of interest to a Catholic historian in each year beginning with 7 BC, along with references to the works in which a complete account can be found.

Non-Catholic Links

 
 

The following links are a mix of secular and Protestant Christian websites which I found helpful in our homeschool history studies.  To the best of my knowledge they contain nothing erroneous or anti-Catholic, although by their nature they do not contain a full understanding of or appreciation for the fullness of historical understanding because they lack a fundamental Catholic world view.  If you discover any anti-Catholic sentiments or information which is contrary to the Catholic faith please let me know.

The Food Timeline
What a great resource!  Description from the site:
Ever wonder what the Vikings ate when they set off to explore the new world? How Dolley Madison made her ice cream? What the pioneers cooked along the Oregon Trail? Who invented the potato chip...and why? Food is the fun part of social studies! The tricky part is finding recipes you can make in a modern kitchen, with ingredients bought at your local supermarket and bring into school to share with your class. This page is for you! We are also stocking up on teacher and parent
resources. Looking for social customs, manners & menus? Try the Culinary History Timeline
. Bon appetit.

 
 

The Civil War Timeline Project
This site contains detailed descriptions and photos of one homeschooling family's Civil War unit study, including a wonderful timeline project which could be used with any period of history you are studying.  The site also includes ideas for a Civil War Journal, costumes and reenactments, writing a "newspaper", making a filmstrip and a Chess set.  This is one creative family!  You'll love this site!
