Philosophy Adventure:

Essential Skills for a Changing World

The world is changing. Now more than ever, we want to equip our students to be critical thinkers and effective communicators—especially since Christians are called to “…destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:5).

To do so, we must first be awakened to the ungodly messages assaulting us…and learn how to counter those messages with Truth. Come learn how we can teach our children to write skillfully, think critically, and speak articulately as they engage with the world of ideas.

A Liberating Look at Time Management Strategies:

Homeschool Mom’s Edition

You care about how you invest your time. You’re trying hard to maximize your potential. Some days you feel like a “rock star.” Other days, not so much. Too often, you simply feel exhausted. So many people depend on you. Life’s demands are relentless. There’s no time to rest. Despite your best efforts, your “to do” list grows faster than you can possibly cross things off. Life feels crazy and chaotic … like things are spinning out of control. But you’re not content with the chaos. You’re reaching for something better.

Come learn five time management strategies that can help you escape the chaos and make the most of your days!

FROM ATHEIST TO APOLOGIST:

Lessons from the Life of C. S. Lewis, the Great Christian Storyteller

In this “Age of Tolerance,” Christians are in danger of forgetting what distinguishes the worldview of the believer from that of the unbeliever.

Rather than allow the world to introduce moral matters to your children—discover how you can use the life and work of C. S. Lewis as a powerful tool to help your students gain a biblical perspective on those timeless philosophical questions which inevitably arise in the mind of any truth seeker.

Creative Freewriting Adventure:

Bring Joy and Excitement to Your Student’s Writing!

Learn how you can inspire your students to think critically and biblically—and develop essential writing skills—using methods that help unleash their creativity.

Even students who considered themselves “non-writers” have produced surprisingly creative work using these techniques.

Don’t Run from the Mirror:

Why You Need to Teach

When families first consider homeschooling, they often feel ill-equipped for the challenge. Fortunately,  quality homeschool curriculum resources abound today. But there is a critical element necessary for success—and it can’t be purchased for any price. We need courage to face the truth about ourselves as we see our weaknesses reflected in the mirror of our homeschool.

This workshop will encourage parents to stay the course and discover how they will be refined and reshaped into something precious through the process of acquiring the character and knowledge required to give their children a true education.

Are We Battling An Epidemic of Rudeness:

Help Your Children Display Love, Kindness, and Respect in a Fallen World

Do you look at our “selfie” society and wonder how to cultivate in your child’s heart love and respect for others? Sometimes, it’s the little things that are easy to overlook—like holding the door or listening intently.

Our sin nature dictates that good manners don’t come naturally. Discover simple steps you can take with your children to help them reflect the love of Jesus through Godly manners.

5 SKILLS YOU CAN LEARN (& TEACH!) THIS YEAR TO CUT GROCERY COSTS

Teach Food Stewardship & Shave Hundreds Off Your Grocery Expenses

As homeschoolers, we have the liberty to teach critical life skills beyond the textbooks—including how to manage a grocery budget. There are practical ways to shave costs in the kitchen, but it requires skills that are in danger of extinction … if we don’t learn and pass them down to the next generation.

Come chat with me about life skills that bless the family pantry and connect us to real food while saving money!
