In an attempt to be responsible homeschooling parents, we can sometimes jump into homeschooling with our little ones in a way that isn’t developmentally appropriate. Today we will be talking about a more gentle approach to Kindergarten, but one that gives mom some gentle direction and structure.
(Even if you don't have a kindergartener or pre-schooler, please pass this on to someone who does!)

The amount of negative and fearful news is constant. It’s virtually impossible to get away from it; if we are not careful, it can erode our faith. We serve a Savior who is the King of Heaven and earth, but why does our world often feel so out of control?
Note: We will briefly touch on eschatology(study of the end times). Please remember that this is not a salvation issue and if you have questions I encourage you to listen to the 3 part series we mention in this episode which is listed below.

Our homeschooling rights came at a cost to others who have gone before us. Today Will Estrada (from HSLDA) and I discussed what that looked like and what we can do to continue to preserve our right to homeschool.
You won't want to miss today's conversation! It is insightful, educational, and encouraging!
