Episode 3: Education is Discipleship

Tuesday, March 4, 2025 • Duration 31:24

Parents, I beg you to face this reality. This is not your grandma’s America. In fact, it’s not even your mama’s America. It’s not the good ole days anymore. We areliving in post-Christian society where even the majority of Christians cannot adequately define what they believe, or why.

No education is neutral; every course, every teacher, every book has a worldview. All education is discipleship.

Episode 2: Anyone Can Homeschool

Season 1 · Episode 2

Saturday, March 1, 2025 • Duration 37:06

Can anyone really homeschool? Nicki says yes, and explains in this episode. Homeschooling is not about creating a miniature school in your home; it's a completely different kind of upbringing. Think outside the classroom, think outside the "school year," and get to know how flexible education at home can truly be.

This episode is for single or working parents, those who feel unqualified to teach, parents of special needs children, low income families, and many other circumstances.

I'll share snippets from Able and Mighty Men: Biographies of the Men Who Signed the Declaration of Independence, an old 1838 book! It's quite different from any modern biography of the signers.
