| We
are the Maxwells! We have been homeschooling since 1985, and it's been a
wonderful, delightful, and challenging journey.
Our family has a blog, which we keep updated with family and ministry news.
The Family:
Steve & Teri
Nathan (our oldest son) & his wife Melanie, Abigail (2), and Bethany (baby)
Christopher (31)
Sarah (28)
Joseph (21)
John (19)
Anna (17)
Jesse (15)
Mary (14)
Church:
The Maxwells attend a multi-generational, family-integrated church FamiliesforJesus Fellowship in Lansing, Kansas (outside of Kansas City). Click here for more information.

Family Business:
Steve is full time in the Titus2.com ministry, and Nathan and Christopher
work together in our family business, CCI. The Lord
brought Steve to work at home from corporate America in 1997.
Detailed Bios:
Steve, in addition
to his many responsibilities, likes to share his heart in his monthly
e-mail article, the Dad's Corner.
Recently, he felt the Lord's strong leading to write a men's book called Redeeming the Time: A Practical Guide to a Christian Man's Time Management, whic is available in paperback or unabridged audiobook. He also recorded Feed My Sheep: A Practical Guide to Daily Family Bible Time. We desire for families to be encouraged to see how it is possible to do family Bible time and be consistent.
Teri loves being a
homemaker, homeschooler, wife, mother, and grandma! Her days are filled to the
brim with her tasks, but she manages to squeeze in writing time (because
of her schedule?!). She also writes
monthly Mom's Corners.
Nathan, at the age
of 24, bought a home debt-free. It has been a family goal to have our
boys be able to purchase a home without incurring debt and to be able
to provide for their family (more about this in Steve's book, Preparing
Sons to Provide for a Single-Income Family). Nathan went through a courtship and engagement before marrying
Melanie in 2002. He and Melanie live right around the corner from us,
which is a blessing! Abigail is two, and Bethany was born in August.
Christopher graduated
from homeschool in 1997 and has been working full time in the family
business since then. Most of his work involves financial consulting with
companies, designing web sites, and photography. He did most of the layout
and design work on our books. Christopher also purchased his home debt-free and is looking forward to getting married in late October. He and Joseph designed ScripturePrints.
Sarah graduated from homeschool in 2000. Sarah enjoys helping in the family Titus2.com ministry, writing the Moody Family Series, and homemaking tasks. She keeps our blog up to date and captures daily life as our "photographer." Sarah would love to be a wife/mother someday if the Lord blesses her with a husband, but in the meantime, she stays busy with what the Lord has given her!
Joseph has been programming for quite a few years, and he has also programmed ChoreWare, an Internet-based software that goes along with Managers of Their Chores. He graduated from homeschool in 2007. He and John have started their own contruction business here in Leavenworth, Kansas . When Joseph has a little time, he loves playing the mandolin and guitar. He also enjoys photography and helped with the ScripturePrints designs.
John graduated in 2009 from the Maxwells' homeschool, and he is our in-house bus mechanic! When we travel, he does a great job of keeping things running smoothly by setting up projectors, working with the sound, or whatever is needed. He and Joseph enjoy working together in their Leavenworth construction business and are excited to see the Lord grow it!
Anna is close to graduating from home school. She delights in helping around the house and is a wonderful asset to whatever projects are going on. Anna has recently acquired the skill of yogurt making. She is our fiddler as well!
Jesse has only two years left of homeschool. In his "spare" time, he enjoys mowing lawns, lawn maintenance, small engine repair, and helping with Titus2 projects. He currently plays the mandolin and guitar.
Mary is the last child
that the Lord has given us. She is a special delight and joy. Mary loves to sew, take her niece on a walk, bake, and help the family. Sheis also a great asset at the book tables when we travel together as a family. The instruments she plays are the bass and guitar.
You might enjoy some pictures of our family's A Gospel Music Evening at a homeschool conference. Please see below.
Our family's highest delight is in knowing Jesus Christ as our personal
Savior and serving Him. We pray that this website and the materials we
offer will be a blessing to your family!
