"The negative impacts of the digital realm include spiritual, physical, and emotional scars and casualties, and these effects are occurring at an increasing pace." — Chris Gonzales
Chris Gonzales, of GoodTube Kids joins Yvette Hampton for a deep dive into the dangers of the digital realm and the importance of protecting our children in this ever-evolving digital landscape. He shares his personal experiences and insights as a law enforcement officer, pastor, and homeschool dad, highlighting the critical role fathers play in raising their daughters and setting an example of what a Godly man looks like. Chris also emphasizes the integration of faith into all aspects of life, challenging the cultural message that tells young people to separate their faith from other areas. Join us as we explore the power of intentional parenting, the battle for our children's hearts and minds through social media, and the need for strong apologetics in today's world. Stay tuned as we learn valuable lessons and gain practical wisdom from Chris Gonzales on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast.
Watch this full conversation on our YouTube channel.
Chris Gonzales resigned from the FBI after 14 years as a Special Agent when he realized the biggest threat we face today is in the war for the hearts and minds of our youth.
As parents, we often just don’t realize the incredible amount of terrible content and messaging forced onto our youth through social media and on-demand content such as YouTube Kids, Netflix, Disney, and Nickelodeon. Chris wrote an e-book called Poisoned Candy to tell parents about the dangers of children’s media.  Parents feel like they have nowhere to turn to find good content in a safe environment; so, after nineteen years in law enforcement, Chris felt God was calling him to a new fight to protect children in the digital realm. Chris launched GoodTube Kids to create a safe place for kids and a resource for parents all in one place.

"We wanted to bring our values and our faith into how we worked and operated in business. It felt like something that was important to honor our faith, even if it meant sacrificing other opportunities." — Noah Sanders
Discover the fascinating world of homesteading with Noah Sanders in this inspiring episode of the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast. Join host Yvette Hampton as she delves into Noah's passion for agriculture, his focus on discipleship, and how he integrates his faith into his farming practices. Don't miss this thought-provoking conversation that sheds light on the importance of responsible land stewardship and the pursuit of God's design in agriculture.
 
Watch this full conversation on our YouTube channel.
Noah Sanders is a farmer, homesteader, and author in Goodwater, Alabama. He is a passionate follower of Jesus who desires to know Him more and make disciples through his daily life. Together with his wife, Dorothy, and six children, Noah ran a small farming operation for 13 years producing and selling vegetables and poultry products using all-natural techniques based on the design of God in Creation. They now provide agricultural training to others and homestead and raise much of their own food.
Noah is the author of Born-Again Dirt: Farming to the Glory of God. In this book he attempts to encourage Christians to think about agriculture from a biblical worldview.  Noah is also the founder of the 'Well-Watered Garden Project', a community garden initiative that seeks to multiply simple gardens that can be used to teach sustainable food production and show the love of Jesus to the hurting. His vision is to see churches and families use agriculture as a way to bring blessing, health, and hope to their communities and the next generation.

They now provide agricultural training to others and homestead and raise much of their own food.
Noah is the author of Born-Again Dirt: Farming to the Glory of God. In this book he attempts to encourage Christians to think about agriculture from a biblical worldview.  Noah is also the founder of the 'Well-Watered Garden Project', a community garden initiative that seeks to multiply simple gardens that can be used to teach sustainable food production and show the love of Jesus to the hurting. His vision is to see churches and families use agriculture as a way to bring blessing, health, and hope to their communities and the next generation.
