Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution

What does the Bible say about training the hearts of our children? Join Yvette Hampton and Aby Rinella in this "best of" episode of the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast. This was Aby's first time on the show and she and Yvette discussed what the Bible calls us to as parents, especially in regards training the hearts of our children.
Aby Rinella is, above all, a follower of Jesus. She is also the director of her local homeschool co-op, director of women’s ministry at her church, wife, mom and teacher to the Rinella children. She writes and speaks on homeschool, motherhood, parental rights, the culture war and more and has a passion for encouraging and inspiring women to live the life they were designed to live.
Aby and her husband also write for the outdoor industry about their adventures together, showing their kids the Creator by spending time in His creation.
Come back Wednesday and Thursday to hear from Eric Hovind in another "best of" conversation.

"Why do I homeschool? Because today my children will be at home with me, learning about the catastrophic events that happened in New York. About the evil that happens when we deviate from God's design. And about how we have a God that mourns because he loves his people. They will be home with me, praying for the preborn babies, rather than in a public school system that tells them they get to choose for themselves what is good and evil, rather than looking to God for truth." - Aby Rinella

SUMMER BREAK!
A great reset for homeschool families; a time to reflect on the last year and prepare for the next. A time for the kids to unwind and run free. But, as with anything, we know that there is always an opportunity to have the blessings robbed if we do not protect these special times.
But take heart, you can make this the best summer yet; a summer full of fun and memories, with learning and growth woven in. You can turn that boredom into opportunity all while getting the much-needed break you have been waiting for!*

Chapters encourage parents in the necessary nature of their task and help with practical elements like how to create a routine. Stories from the author's own life are integrated throughout, and questions for reflection are given at the end of each chapter. Comes with audiobook CD. 111 pages, softcover.
Psalm 100 ESV
“Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!
    Serve the Lord with gladness!
    Come into his presence with singing!
Know that the Lord, he is God!
    It is he who made us, and we are his;
    we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
    and his courts with praise!
    Give thanks to him; bless his name!
For the Lord is good;
    his steadfast love endures forever,
    and his faithfulness to all generations.”

Crisis to Christ: The Hardest and Best Year of My LifeBy Steve Demme / Building Faith Families
Crisis to Christ is the autobiographical account of one year---the "best and hardest"--in the author's life, when the process of transitioning to a family-run business opened up a wellspring of issues springing from past wounds, scars, and baggage. A story of the internal processing and healing that took place, this unique account intersperses' the author's story with advice, encouragement, and exhortation to embrace the cross. This book will affirm others who are going through valleys and tribulations, and provide comfort in reminding readers that every Christian faces trials that God uses to transform us into the image of His Son. 175 pages, softcover.
Family Worship: You Shall Teach Them To Your Children With Audiobook CDBy Steve Demme / Math-U-See
Family Worship is a practical, Scripture-based book filled with tips on teaching the Word of God to children of all ages. Christian parents know that discipling children in the way of the Lord is of paramount importance but it's often difficult to implement. Chapters encourage parents in the necessary nature of their task and help with practical elements like how to create a routine. Stories from the author's own life are integrated throughout, and questions for reflection are given at the end of each chapter. Comes with audiobook CD. 111 pages, softcover.
Psalm 100 ESV
“Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!
    Serve the Lord with gladness!
    Come into his presence with singing!
Know that the Lord, he is God!
    It is he who made us, and we are his;
    we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
    and his courts with praise!
    Give thanks to him; bless his name!
For the Lord is good;
    his steadfast love endures forever,
    and his faithfulness to all generations.”

A University Professor’s Opinion on Homeschooling and Culture - Join host, Yvette Hampton, and Dr. Duke Pesta as they discuss the influence culture and churches have had on today’s youth and how we as parents can best prepare our children for the secular worldview ideology that they are being exposed to on a daily basis. Are our children safe? They also discuss how most homeschooled students fare in a university setting. 
 
Read the transcript of this interview here.
Dr. Duke Pesta is the Director of FreedomProject Academy, host of the Dr. Duke Show, and a professor of English at the University of Wisconsin, Oshkosh. His experiences as an educational reformer, university professor, and high school teacher, uniquely qualify him to address the current state of education in our country. He speaks across the nation on topics including the necessity of homeschooling, the decline of morality and critical thinking in the public schools, and the myriad of ways that colleges and universities indoctrinate students.
