3 Lifelong Habits: The Habit of Attention

  “Pay attention, Joleen!” My mother gently tapped my wiggly five-year-old, stocking-clad, leg. I sat in church, hoping my father would preach a short sermon. Nope. So, I counted the ceiling beams and looked for hidden designs in the stained glass windows. Eventually, I fell asleep against my mother’s warm shoulder. Paying attention seemed difficult

What is a Christian Worldview?

  A worldview is a set of ideas, values, and presuppositions. It’s like putting on a pair of sunglasses that color how you view life, people, and ideas. People collect little pieces of their worldview through parents, school, movies, and friends. A Christian worldview is based on the Bible. Let’s look at the Christian worldview.

Teachers are Seed Planters

  As I glanced over at my garden this morning, something caught my eye. I could see what appeared to be a flower blooming next to the arbor. I thought for certain I was mistaken, since I had not planted anything in that spot this year or last year. I went over to investigate. To

Dedicate the School Year to the Lord

  I can get so busy making schedules, cleaning out school totes, and organizing books, that I forget to stop and dedicate my school year to the Lord. Whoops! Jesus First In my life, I am learning that what Jesus said in Matthew 6:33 is true: if I seek first His Kingdom, then everything I

Hey Mama Monday: You Don’t Always Have To Feel Like Ruth

  Hey Mama, You are like Ruth, faithful. You are like Esther, courageous. You are like Martha, a servant. You are like Mary, a student of the Lord. You are like Deborah, brave. You are like Eve, fruitful. You are a Mama and a wife. A care-taker, cook, teacher, lover, tear-wiper, heart-keeper. It’s a complex,

The Great Commission for Homeschool Moms

  As Moms, we, like all Christians around the world, are called to make disciples. 18 And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father

Focus

  I was just reading in the Book of Mark, Chapter 2, this morning, where Jesus healed the man with palsy. Afterward, some people were murmuring and He poses the question to them: Which is harder; For a man to heal the body or to forgive sins? That really hit me. In our world, we

Brotherly Love

  I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard parents say, “They’re siblings; they’re supposed to fight.” This statement is not true! God commands us to love one another. Siblings are not exempt from this commandment. As a matter of fact, I believe we should treat our family members with even more love and

Teaching on Historical Figures Like Scripture Does – Part Four

  In closing our case study on the life of Moses, one final analysis remains: what was the impact of his life on history, and how are we to remember him? As you can probably guess, the Bible gives us a pattern for how we can accurately and truthfully judge the merits and follies of

  The Life of Moses: Race and Pace in Storytelling Not only does scriptural history teach us about the hearts of the men and women God used to make history, it also employs a mechanism known to storytellers as race and pace. Race and pace is the rhythm of a story. For example, in the

  This year will be our 11th year of homeschooling. One would think I’d have all my ducks in a row by now, but my ducks tend to be freethinking, hyperactive ducks. Every year has been a new adventure and I’m thinking that my 11th year won’t be an exception. Ironically, as the mother of

Teaching on Historical Figures Like Scripture Does – Part Two

  After acquainting us with Moses’ world, he makes his debut on the scriptural pages. As our man takes the stage, the Bible utilizes several storytelling mechanisms that set it apart from traditional methods of teaching history.
