Have you heard of Truth In The Tinsel? Chances are, if you've been around the homeschool blogosphere recently, you might have. I'm so excited to have the opportunity to talk with Amanda on today's podcast. Let me properly introduce her: The lady behind Truth In The TinselAmanda White is just a girl who wants her kids to know about Jesus. She grew up loving God, the church and all things creative. She and her husband, Les were full-time children’s ministry folks for the first few years of marriage–they traveled the country doing puppet shows, performing magic tricks and singing songs to lead kids to God and His Word. Then a few church jobs came and went and two kids came along and ministry became home-based and family-focused.Amanda started a blog, ohAmanda.com to tell her story of motherhood and leading her kids to the Lord. This led to a few ebooks and thousands of families learning to impress God’s Word on their kids’ hearts.Amanda's Favorite Verse: Psalm 139!At the beginning of the show, we chatted about:What inspired Amanda to create the Truth In The Tinsel curriculum.
