Ep. 247 — More Than Academics: Teaching Truth & Faith at Home with Yvette Hampton


Listen Later

Today's episode is a must-listen for every parent who wants their daughter's education to be rooted in more than just grades and test scores. When it comes to shaping a girl's heart, soul, and mind, discipleship doesn't end at church—it starts at home. And for an increasing number of families, that includes homeschooling.

This weekend on the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, host Patti Garibay welcomes back Yvette Hampton—host of The Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast and producer of the powerful documentary Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution. Yvette shares her heartfelt journey into homeschooling and offers an honest, hope-filled perspective on how parents can teach both truth and academics with confidence—even if they feel unqualified.

In a time when nearly 4 million children in the U.S. are homeschooled, this conversation tackles what's driving the movement, the cultural pressures families are pushing back against, and how homeschooling allows space for Biblical worldview development, daily discipleship, and deep family connection. Yvette encourages moms and dads to remember that education isn't just about passing on knowledge—it's about passing on faith.

In this episode, you'll gain:

  • Encouragement to embrace your God-given role as both parent and spiritual teacher

  • Insight into how homeschooling supports God's design for discipleship in the family

  • Practical advice for integrating Scripture and truth into daily lessons

  • A reminder that even if you feel like you've "missed the mark," God is not finished writing your family's story

  • Resources for building Christ-centered community and courage in your homeschool journey

Scriptures Referenced:

  • Proverbs 22:6 – "Train up a child in the way he should go…"

  • Deuteronomy 6:6–7 – "Impress [God's commands] on your children…"

Whether you're new to homeschooling or simply rethinking how your home supports your child's faith, this episode is a powerful reminder that education is never just academic—it's spiritual. You don't need credentials to teach your daughter about Christ. You just need conviction, consistency, and the courage to walk in obedience. And as Yvette shares, when you build your daughter's education on the foundation of God's Word, you're preparing her not just for college—but for the Kingdom.
