Let's Talk Homeschool

In the year 2000, the British Medical Journal set out to list the top medical advances since 1840. Using Kevin Swanson's book EPOCH as a reference (pp 434-441), I summarize the top 8. You will note that all the scientists, researches, and physicians were Christians. Maybe one of your homeschool children is a budding creation-based scientist who will come up with a medical advancement to help mankind over the course of the next century.

In this episode, we talk about our trip to San Antonio, TX to witness the annular solar eclipse of Oct. 14, 2023. We also discuss the difference between a TOTAL solar eclipse and an ANNULAR solar eclipse.

As we continue this series, in this show we talk about ideas for making the most of projects and responsibilities with your kids. Some keys include doing it with them, not worrying about how long it will take to complete, and not being obsessive about the quality of the work. IOW, focus on the relationship building!

In this show, we talk with Rachael Yunis, co-author of Apologia's advanced biology course - The Human Body.

How long does a typical homeschool last? One year? Two years? Three? For those that make it for the long-haul, when do they come to that decision? Davis shares ran data from NC to help answer these questions. And he makes some real life application.

In this short devotional, we encourage listeners to learn the big picture of the Bible (with its 66 books) in the same way you would want to know the context and big picture before you set out on a road trip along historic Route 66.

In this show, we share a list of 26 words of wisdom (from 26 years of homeschooling) to help you have an awesome homeschool year.

In this show, I interview Doug Powell, author of the iWitness series. There are 8 books in this collection of beautifully illustrated, highly visual, and throughly engaging apologetics books.

We actually have a list with hundreds of good reasons to homeschool. We picked ten of the top ones to share with you in this episode.

We continue the "Doing Family" series by discussing extra-curricular activities and how to practically, intentionally, and best practice Deuteronomy 6 moments as you "walk along the way."

In July, I wrote a response to Amazon Prime's Shiny Happy People docuseries. In this podcast episode, Rachael and I talk with Ladd and April Lesh and discuss this topic further.

In this show, we talk with David Webb, instructor with Apologia's Live Online Classes. We discuss how to be intentional about movie watching. 

We continue our "Doing Family" series by discussing family traditions - the ones that are started intentionally and the ones that happen naturally.

This is a short devotional based on Luke 5:21

Some of our most listened to shows are the 13 in this series titled: Radically Intentional Parenting. Those shows were aired a long time ago. So we wanted to bring them back to the top with this repeat of the introduction. Here's all the shows in the series so that you can quickly go back in time and listen to them at your convenience. #31, 34, 36, 38, 45, 46, 48, 50, 55, 58, 60, 64, and 72.

In this show, we talk with Rachael Yunis, author of Exploring Creation with Earth Science. Find out why lesson 13 in this course is her favorite. 

In this episode, I ask Rachael (my wife and author of The Word in Motion) six questions about the Bible curriculum she wrote.

Our guest in this show is Sherri Seligson, author of several Apologia courses including Exploring Creation with Marine Biology and General Science, 3rd Edition. The main theme in this episode is WHY to teach science from a creation-based vantage point?

This series is titled "Doing Family." In this episode, we talk about one of the 4 Deuteronomy opportunities to "teach your children diligently." This one is when you sit. And meal times are a wonderful time to experience what we call Deuteronomy 6 moments. There's planning, shopping, cooking, eating, clean up, and all the details associated with each. Oh, and don't forget what should be obvious: No digital devices at the table.

This is a conference workshop by Rachael Carman titled "Loving, Learning, Laughing" and is presented in its entirety.
