Is your experience with your children beautiful, enlivening, and enlightening, or is it a drain on you? (It's ok if it is both. We've been there.)

Living together in love with your children is the essence of Eternal Life. That doesn't mean learning to do that comes automatically. In our fast food world with drop off programs being the norm, how can we gather our children back home and truly nourish their souls? Home education is not just for families who are already perfectly patient in every way. It isn't just for families who feel like they already have everything together. Home education is a choice that can be blessed by God when we consecrate ourselves to receiving the grace that Christ has already provided for everyone who trusts in Him.

Is your family preparing to fulfill your role in bringing forth the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth?

If we are to be a Zion people when Jesus comes again, it will be because we have created space for Him in our hearts first. The sandy foundations of Babylon aren't good enough for the rising generation to fulfill what God has in store for them. We need personal, family, and community life to be centrally anchored on our Rock.

Learn from experienced home educating mothers and mentors who want to help you skip to the good part and just enjoy your family as you trust the whole process. Join Jami Hepworth, Nancy Jones, and Mickelle Shea for a holistic overview of the true purpose of education in the home: to experience joy with our children as we learn together how to know, love, and serve the true and living God. We are excited to support you in discovering how to do this in a uniquely tailored way and with grace and respect for your family's particular needs, challenges, gifts, and desires.

We have surveyed what the world has to offer and learned so much from a variety of excellent philosophies and mentors, historical and present. This course distills all of the best ideas for a Zion-based education and family life within the context of the scriptures. We will also share our experiences in collaborating with local families to establish educational commonwealths that support our families' vision.

Learn how to create a rich family culture that supports both your religious and your intellectual ideals. Find inspiration and joy through the study of the best books and also through living by faith. Cultivate the hearts and minds of every member in your family towards fulfilling their unique life missions. Learn approaches and philosophies of education that respect agency and foster warm relationships. Discover ways you can rejoice in and teach of Christ so that your children will live, learn, and grow up "after the manner of happiness." 

This course includes three 3-hour presentations. The course also includes a beautiful downloadable course book. The lesson topics are as follows:

• Lesson #1 is "Plant: Envision the Beginning From the End and Discern the Seeds that Grow the Sweetest Fruit" 
  • Articulate what really matters to your family
  • Discover Christ in the humanities
  • Develop a treasured family canon through reading aloud from meaningful classics and living books
  • Build a community of Mother friends on this same journey

  • Consider systems, habits, and guiderails that foster personal responsibility and forward momentum.
  • Lead by example by falling head over heels in love with learning. Nothing will increase your confidence more than investing in your own education!
