Prayer
A guide to prayer for homeschool parents and their children.
Prayer for Your Children
Several years ago, God burdened my heart that I was not praying His Word over my children like I should, so I started putting together what would become a very helpful prayer guide for myself and my family.
And I would like to share it with you! Click below to learn more about the “Pray for Your Children” series and downloadable.
Prayer for Your Family
As a Christian homeschool parent, saying a prayer for your children prior to starting the day’s lesson is a great way to get centered and focused on God’s word and will for the day. There are also several homeschool prayer guides to get you started.
Prayer is one of the most valuable tools that God give us. When we draw near to God through prayer for our marriage, for our family, and for our children, we strengthen our relationship with Him.
Prayer for Peace
All moms and dads yearn for a peaceful home. When you are a homeschool parent, you can sometimes lose focus.
Making sure to carve out time for prayer daily is essential to staying the course. Pray for peace, guidance, and understanding for the day’s lessons and activities.
Prayer for Strength & Peace
Homeschool isn’t always easy. Homeschool parents have bad days just like everyone else. Sometimes the kids don’t listen or maybe they are having a hard time learning a concept. It can be frustrating at times.
Prayers for strength and wisdom will help get through these rough patches and get refocused.

Handfuls of Treasure: Embracing Busy Family Life
Spelling, Arithmetic, Reading, Dishes, Diapers, Laundry, Cooking….the list goes on and on! Homeschooling mothers wear so many hats. Busy family life can threaten to steal the realization that our hands are holding, guiding and directing eternal souls. This session focuses on recognizing treasure, laying it up in heaven, and loving the family God has given us.
Live to Love With Jesus
Experience freedom and joy in satisfying relationships as you learn the difference between a counterfeit love and Jesus love, two hindrances to the flow of love, and Gods provision for establishing loving relationships. Everyone wants the homeschooling experience to be satisfying and enjoyable. However, parents and children can unknowingly make idols out of homeschooling and relationships which always results in control and disappointment. Youll be encouraged as you hear how to live to love with Jesus.
Hebrews 11: 23 and 2 Kings 3:16. The secret of our Homeschooling “Why” and “How”
The secret to success in Homeschooling is theres no secret! The elements of success in Homeschooling match those in discipleship, marriage, parenting, entrepreneurship and gardening.
My husband introduced me to gardening in 1981. I was ready to wean our 13-month old twins to baby food. He argued for a garden because we dont know whos bottling that! When I balked he said Sweetie Pie, gardening is like pastoring and parenting. All require daily attention to detail in the same posture of humility, head bowed, body bent. Folks who dont have time to garden probably dont have time to parent. I joined him in the garden and learned the secret works in discipleship, marriage, parenting, entrepreneurship, gardening, and of course homeschooling. It isnt easy but its also not complex. Homeschooling three sons to a state of holistic health required a challenging yet simple Morning by Morning approach. Id love to share our Why and How Homeschooling secrets with you.

Homeschooling and Living out the Gospel
Intentionally living out Godliness through the living Gospel everyday should be my goal as a mama, wife, teacher, and friend. When life gets crazy, where do we turn? Or who do we turn into? The learning my children receive not only comes from books, but more importantly, it comes from a life wholly dedicated to God. A life that LIVES OUT THE GOSPEL.
Our Only Hope
Life can be very difficult and many feel helpless and defeated when struggles become too much to handle. As I share my story in my book, Our Only Hope, I describe the extreme hardships I faced throughout my youth and adult life, more than most individuals could imagine facing in an entire lifetime. If you are searching for hope and a purpose, I will share with you the encouragement and inspiration to move forward through the most difficult times. I will guide you down a path of unimaginable hope and a new-found purpose for your life.
Responding Biblically to Temptation
We all know that the Bible instructs us to flee evil desires, but how is that possible when the bait is so tempting? In this workshop, we will discuss the doctrine of sanctification, specifically as it relates to the work of the Holy Spirit coupled with our obedience to Gods commands in Scripture. We will learn how to respond biblically to temptation through the put off/put on process and also learn what it means to radically amputate sin from our lives.

God Blessed America: Our Christian Roots
America is a nation based on the Law of Moses, given by God to His prophet at the foot of Mt. Sinai thousands of years ago. As a faithful Christian nation following those ancient principles, America has been wise, good and prosperous. To remain such, we must reinforce and restore our Christian principles. Our colonial pastors and Founders openly taught Christianity, extolling the benefits of freedom that would result from living by Gods Word.
Humanism, the sworn enemy of liberty and Christianity, seeks to destroy our national Judeo-Christian heritage. We must understand and defend ourselves from this desolating plague; but how? Join us to learn Christianitys essential contributions in the home and nation that preserve Americas greatness.
