    Looking Forward: Instilling Faith-Filled Expectations

    As homeschooling parents, you have the incredible privilege of not just shaping your children’s academic knowledge, but also nurturing their hearts, character, and spiritual understanding. One of the most powerful lessons you can teach as a new year dawns is the meaning of expectation—not the world’s version, but the kind rooted in faith and anchored in God's promises. Each new year brings with it a sense of wonder. A blank page. A fresh start. Children often feel this as much as we do—they begin to dream, imagine, and look forward. This is the perfect moment to guide them gently into a deeper understanding of faith-filled expectation: what it is, how it works, and who it's really about.

    Loving Your Kids Through Mistakes

    Today’s episode is about something every parent faces: mistakes. Our kids will make them, we will make them—and sometimes it’s in those messy moments that the deepest love and discipleship can happen. Instead of reacting with anger or disappointment, what if we saw mistakes as opportunities? Opportunities to extend grace, model forgiveness, and remind our children that they are loved—right in the middle of their mess. Join Coach Nove and her guest Malou as they talk about how God taught them about loving their kids through mistakes. Malou De Guzman is the beloved wife of Raymond De Guzman. They are blessed with two children Daniel and Allison. Together they have been serving as ministers and now helping Victory Lipa Batangas.

    Faith Over Fear: Teaching Our Kids to Be Prepared, Not Panicked (Integrating Safety and Readiness in Homeschool Life)

    Today’s topic is something every Filipino family needs to talk about — especially now that we’ve seen earthquakes, floods, and even tsunami warnings in different parts of our country. As homeschooling parents, we don’t just teach math or reading — we also teach life skills that prepare our kids for real-world situations.
And one of those is safety and readiness — but taught in a way that doesn’t create fear, but builds confidence and faith. Because as we remind our kids to prepare, we also remind them that God is our ultimate protector. Join Coach Nove in this episode as she tackles on how we can we raise our kids to be prepared in times of crisis. Feedbacks are welcome.
