(This same session, The Homeschooling Family: Building a Vision, is included in our special compilation set-- Encouragement for the Homeschool Family.)

Newly updated!

Session Length: Approximately 70 minutes

Whether new or experienced homeschoolers, this motivational and practical session helps a family attain their heartfelt goals for raising and educating their children. Doubts, discouragement, and burnout can easily shipwreck the family that doesn't know "where they are going." What is it that keeps a family homeschooling through a mom's feelings of being overwhelmed, a child with a rebellious spirit, or a house full of babies and toddlers?

Together, Steve and Teri share in this session how they moved from homeschooling for convenience (we'll try it a year and see how it goes) to homeschooling forever. They will give you concrete examples from homeschooling struggles they have experienced and how they made it through. With six adult children whom they homeschooled and two more children who are currently being homeschooled, they have the experience to know how to keep on while still being in the trenches of day to day homeschooling.
