Skeet Savage
Member since 07/2009
Skeet Savage is the Founder of Wisdom's Gate, Editor of Home School Digest, An Encouraging Word, and Brush Arbor Quarterly publications. She is the author of Homeschooling For Eternity, and is a powerful motivational/inspirational speaker. Skeet also makes occasional guest appearences with various radio, newspaper, TV and magazines including a feature in TIME Magazine.

In the 1970s Skeet began homeschooling and successfully home educated six children against numerous odds. In the face of court battles, social service visits, and the threat of having children removed from the home for being "truant," she stood firm and helped to pave the way for the modern homeschool movement.

In the late 1980s Skeet came to know Jesus as Lord and now travels and speaks for His glory at events from coast to coast. Her ability to connect with her audience on a heart level and quickly build rapport makes her an effective speaker. Skeet ministers empathetically to those facing difficult obstacles such as homeschooling in the face of opposition, domestic violence, poverty, dyslexia, and serious health problems because she has walked through those trials herself and came through a victor, not a victim. Her powerful messages are built consistently on a strong, Biblical foundation and delivered in her warm, down-to-earth (and often humorous) style.

My Mission Statement

Skeet’s hard-hitting, no-compromise approach is seasoned with the wisdom of age and the love of the Lord that draws people to open their hearts and receive the convicting messages she brings. Wherever she has been called to speak, the Holy Spirit has used Skeet’s messages to bring many out of their double-mindedness and into full surrender to His will, a deeper understanding of His Word and His Ways, and a closer walk with Him. Her ministry goes beyond a message delivered from the stage. As she talks with moms who are discouraged, prays with parents who are struggling, encourages a timid young couple, or counsels a frustrated teenager, she is a conduit of hope--a vessel overflowing with God’s love and the light of His truth.
