A desire of a homeschooling mother's heart is to have a meek and quiet spirit instead of discouragement, fear, and anger. She can cope with the myriad of daily difficulties and decisions that a homeschooling lifestyle brings with it, as long as she is having the right responses to them. Let her be fearful, worried, anxious, frustrated, irritated, or angry and a mom soon realizes she is undermining all she wants to accomplish by homeschooling. Because Teri Maxwell, a mother of eight, has walked the homeschooling path since 1985, she knows first-hand the struggle for a meek and quiet spirit. The memories from her early homeschooling years of often being worried and angry rather than having a meek and quiet spirit are not what she would like them to be. Homeschooling with a Meek and Quiet Spirit includes Teri sharing the work the Lord has done in her heart through homeschooling. Other homeschooling moms will be encouraged that He can do the same for them. Teri also desires that homeschooling mothers could learn from the lessons the Lord has taught her so that they would begin to have a meek and quiet spirit long before she did. Will the reader's journey toward a meek and quiet spirit be completed upon finding the perfect spelling curriculum or deciding which chores a child should be doing? Or does the answer lie on a different path? In these pages, Teri offers practical insights into gaining a meek and quiet spirit, along with chapter-by-chapter projects, that any mom can apply to her individual circumstances. She transparently shares the struggles God has brought her through and what He has shown her during these many homeschooling years. Throughout Homeschooling with a Meek and Quiet Spirit, the heart issues that will gently lead you to a meek and quiet spirit are discovered. The reader is encouraged to join Teri as they seek the Lord to homeschool with a meek and quiet spirit! The book only costs $7. You may add it to your cart above, or print out an order form.

Homeschooling with a Meek and Quiet Spirit Testimonials | This is one of the best, most helpful, encouraging, and empathetic books I've read during my 5 years of homeschooling. A mom | I wish all moms, regardless of their school choice, could read Homeschooling with a Meek and Quiet Spirit. Kathy | Thank you for your Homeschooling with a Meek and Quiet Spirit book. It touched my heart with all of my struggles as I homeschool my children. Each time I read a new page I felt as if I was sitting down with a box of tissues, a cup of tea, and a dear, trusted friend. I have a renewed excitement and inward peace that the Lord is with me on this journey if I continually seek His face. Susan | | Thank you for your book, Homeschooling with a Meek and Quiet Spirit. It is the best book I have read in just forever and has really helped me! Reba | Homeschooling with a Meek and Quiet Spirit has transformed me by the leading of the Holy Spirit! Angie | | Teri, thank you so much for this very encouraging book. It really is a blessing to me to know that other people are suffering with the same "meek and quiet spirit" robbers as I am. (My list seems to grow everyday!) Your application projects at the end of each chapter are very helpful. Thank you so much for blessing my homeschool with your words of encouragement. Ambia | | Thank you, Teri, for the beautiful encouragement in your book, Homeschooling with a Meek and Quiet Spirit. Three other homeschool moms and I have started a Bible study/prayer group twice a month. We have been looking for something to study. Your book came at just the right time! So last night we began with Chapter 1 (even though most of us have already finished the book on our own!). Thank you again for inspiring us in our journeys to have that much longed for meek and quiet spirit! Debbie | Homeschooling with a Meek and Quiet Spirit really is a different sort of "homeschooling" book because it deals with heart issues and notsurface issues. I so appreciated your book because it helps me deal with ME. There are three favorite things about your book for me: One is the focus on scripture. I really appreciate how you take us there consistently throughout the book. The second is the "application projects." The projects are the most powerful aspect of this book! The third element was your humble, unabashed transparency. In sharing your weaknesses, you most definitely built a bridge with your readers. In sharing your failures, you are saying that you have not "arrived" and are in fact, still working diligently at these issues in your own heart. I must say also, that as pastor's wife, I was very humbled by you Teri. I am so thankful for the people around you that allowed you to put your insights and thoughts into this book, for the circumstances that God has allowed you to experience that you could "comfort ... by the comfort which you yourself are comforted of God" (2 Corinthians 1:4). and for the Lord, Himself, who gave you the words. Isn't our Lord so good? Ana |
