    Homeschooling When Life Gets Hard

    In this episode Renee and Karen talk with Amber Vanderpol, homeschooling mom of 7 children ages 1-22, about homeschooling in difficult seasons. She recounts how a brain injury caused her to re-evaluate the education she was providing for her children asking the question: Does Charlotte Mason education and classical education mean doing "all the things" or is the goal to cultivate wisdom and virtue and what does that look like? Whether you too are in a challenging season or are just tired of having to do "all the things", you will be encouraged by listening to Amber's story and the advice she offers. Hosted on Acast.

    From Socrates to Crumb-cake

    In this episode, Renee and Karen discuss chapter 6 of Norms and Nobility, "On the Necessity of Dogma". This chapter explores dialectic-the art of thinking, of wrestling with a dogma or an idea and coming to the truth. They discuss HIcks' statement of how "dialectic awakens the quarrelsome inner life" and that this is not to be feared, how the "should" question is a powerful tool, and how following a recipe is an analogy of classical education: freedom in form!

We discuss how the temple and its parts: the Holy of Holies, the Holy Place, the Courtyard and the Camp are patterns of us as humans and of the world around us and how that makes a difference in how we see our children and the glory to be found in every lesson.
