George and Christy Theiss are Sovereign Grace Baptists. They wanted to dedicate their web site to their Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The name for the Tulip Gems web site comes from the acronymn T-U-L-I-P.

George and Christy have been home schooling their eight (8) children with Christ-centered materials from A.C.E., Alpha & Omega and A Beka Books for over twenty-six years (26) years. Their oldest is now age 33 and married, but their youngest is 15 (as of this writing in the year 2011).

For Biblical answers, visit our Mark of the Beast Explained page.

Who is Jesus Christ? Why KJV only? Why Home School your children? Jesus Christ is Lord and the KJV Bible is the Preserved Word of God in English. Finally, Scripture gives us compelling reasons to Home School our children. One very important reason is to lead them to Our Passover Lamb. We recommend Christ-centered Home Schooling Curriculum.
