Heart & Soul Homeschool

Tim Barton, homeschool dad and the President of WallBuilders, joins Emilie for this special Thanksgiving episode of Heart & Soul Homeschool. The two chat about the true story of Thanksgiving and why it's so important that we make sure our kids understand our nation's history.

Tim Barton is the President of WallBuilders and spends countless hours researching the truth of America’s founding and exposing the lies regarding our history that currently permeate our society. Tim’s ability to tell the story of America’s past, while helping audiences understand how that connects to the present and what steps should be taken for the future, has inspired audiences nationwide.  He is also a contributor for the Epoch Times, and a frequent guest on numerous television and radio programs.

Leslie Nunnery, Co-Founder of Teach Them Diligently, and Emilie talk about preparing for the empty nest even while your kids are young.  Your heart will be encouraged by Leslie’s sweet insights no matter where you are on your journey as a mom.

David and Leslie Nunnery are the founders of Teach Them Diligently. Convinced of the Holy Spirit’s leading them to home educate their four children in 2010, they stepped out in faith. They were called to start Teach Them Diligently in 2011 as God impressed on their hearts a need for discipleship-focused, family-strengthening events, and they have since hosted more than fifteen TTD Conventions across the United States allowing them to share their ministry with nearly a million people. They also minister to families throughout the year through Teach Them Diligently 365, their written articles, podcasts, and more. They are eager to get to know your family soon.
