Homeschooling: God Is Sufficient

Unsure of your ability to homeschool your children? Feel like giving up on a rebellious child? Carrying concerns about some aspect of homeschooling? Join Katherine, a 2003 homeschool graduate, as she reflects back on Gods sufficiency during her homeschooling years. Specific examples of how God taught her through her mothers weaknesses will remind you that God can teach your children. Her reflections on periods of extreme trial will remind you that God knows what He is doing with your children, even when you don't understand. Katherine's candid honesty in describing her periods of rebellion will encourage you to remain true to Gods calling no matter what. Interwoven with these and other personal examples, Katherine shares the Scripture verses and lessons that God gave her family during her homeschooling years. Be encouraged that God is sufficient for whatever you might be facing.

Math from a Biblical Worldview?

We see God’s hand in science and history, but what about math? Isn’t math just a bunch of neutral facts? While most of us have come to look upon math as “neutral,” it’s not! Worldviews do matter in math--and there’s much more to looking at math from a biblical worldview than adding a scripture at the bottom of the page or using a Bible word problem. Come discover biblical principles that make math come alive and give math meaning, helping children really understand what they’re learning. Find out how “neutral” presentations are really not neutral. Leave equipped to begin looking at and teaching math from a new perspective!

Socialization: Understanding the Issue and Sorting Out the Options

Could the socialization activities in which you're participating actually be harming your child? Cris Loop, a homeschool mother, and Katherine Loop, a homeschool graduate, address the often misunderstood issue of socialization from both a parent's and a child's perspective. Get your socialization questions answered and discover ways to give your child the skills they need to socialize without putting them in peer groups. This workshop answers questions such as these: Do parents need to worry about getting their children around other children? Does homeschooling prepare children to socialize in the real-world? How can we sort through the myriad of activities to know which ones we should participate in?

Teaching Math Biblically: Discovering the Biblical Heart in Math

Did you realize your math book might be harming your child's heart? Although math is really a fascinating testimony to Gods faithfulness and character, most homeschoolers are taught to view math as a neutral set of facts and numbers. Most parents are unaware of both the worldly thinking in typical math presentations and of God’s presence in math. Discover the biblical truth about math--a truth that makes math come alive and gives math meaning. Walk through how to teach math biblically, and learn principles for selecting a good math curriculum.
