Homeschool Insights - Biblical Home Education Inspiration in Under 10 Minutes!

In this heartfelt excerpt from our interview, Aby Rinella sits down with Abbey Wedgeworth (author of Held: 31 Biblical Reflections on God's Comfort and Care in the Sorrow of Miscarriage) to talk openly about the unique and often isolating grief of pregnancy loss.

They discuss why comparison steals our healing, how every mom and every baby is fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139), and why there's no "right" way to grieve. You'll hear practical wisdom on releasing shame, leaving room for others (and your husband) to grieve differently, running to the Father instead of performing grief, and the power of community with women who understand.

Whether you're walking through miscarriage now, supporting someone who is, or want to prepare your heart for hard conversations—this conversation offers gospel hope, freedom from pressure, and gentle reminders that you are seen and held by God.

If this resonates, share it with a friend who needs to hear they're not alone.

Are we watching the slow loss of a generation—and not realizing why?

In this powerful clip, Meeke Addison and Alex Newman unpack a sobering truth: when parents stop intentionally discipling their children, something else always fills the void.

Drawing from Scripture (Deuteronomy 6 and Psalm 78), they explain how generational drift doesn’t happen overnight—but through a gradual forgetting of God. And in today’s culture, that forgetting is being accelerated.

Who is shaping your child’s worldview for 5 days a week?

And can one hour on Sunday really compete?

This conversation exposes:

• Why faith fades over generations
• The danger of outsourcing education and discipleship
• What history—and Scripture—warn us about neglecting our role as parents
• Why reclaiming responsibility starts at home

If you’re a parent, this is a wake-up call you can’t afford to ignore.

What really matters when the homeschool journey is over?

After years of homeschooling and graduating her children, veteran homeschool mom Carrie De Francisco shares the one thing that mattered most when she looked back on the journey.

In this conversation with Cindy West, Carrie explains why homeschooling isn’t ultimately about checking off curriculum boxes or mastering the periodic table. It’s about something far deeper.

It’s about the relationships you build along the way.

If you’ve ever worried about whether you’re “doing enough” in your homeschool, this encouraging perspective will help you refocus on what truly lasts.

Because when the years are over and your children are grown… the relationships you’ve built will matter far more than any worksheet or test score.

Watch this encouraging reminder that homeschooling is about nurturing your children, your faith, and the lifelong bonds that come from learning together.

What if the goal of education isn’t to fill your child with facts—but to lead them toward truth?

In this powerful excerpt from Yvette Hampton’s conversation with Missy Andrews, we rethink the widely accepted idea of “mastery learning” and ask a deeper question: What is education really for?

Is it memorization? Information? Achievement?

Or is it something far more meaningful—something that shapes how a child sees the world, themselves, and ultimately, God?

Missy Andrews challenges the idea that education is a checklist of facts to be mastered and instead points us back to the root meaning of the word itself: to lead out.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by homeschool expectations, book lists, or the pressure to “get it all in,” this conversation will bring clarity—and relief.

Because education was never meant to be a hamster wheel.

Miscarriage affects 1 in 4 pregnancies, yet it often leaves women feeling isolated and afraid to speak. In this heartfelt excerpt from our interview, Abbey Wedgeworth shares her journey through loss and offers wise, biblical encouragement for those grieving.

Host Aby Rinella and Abbey discuss:

• Why the statistic doesn't always bring comfort—but talking about it does
• The power of Romans 12: "Weep with those who weep"
• Why your grief isn't shameful and can actually be a gift to the church
• Practical advice for sharing your story (you don't have to tell everyone, but telling someone matters)
• How opening up validates your baby's life and creates space for others to find hope

Whether you've walked through miscarriage yourself or want to better support someone who has, this conversation brings gospel-centered hope: your tears matter, your baby's life mattered, and God uses even this pain for good.

If you're hurting today, know you're not alone. The church is designed to walk through grief together.

What happened?

How did generations of parents—many with good intentions—gradually hand over the discipleship of their children to the state?

In this powerful excerpt from our interview, Meeke Addison talks with Alex Newman about the slow, almost unnoticed shift that transformed education in America. What began with resistance eventually became acceptance… and now, many are asking how we got here.

This isn’t just history—it’s a wake-up call.

If we don’t understand how it happened, we won’t recognize what needs to change.

You’ll discover:

• Why too many homeschool choices can become a burden
• The mistake many new homeschool parents make
• How Carrie moved from traditional curriculum to a more freedom-focused approach
• Why comparison is stealing joy from homeschool families
• What truly matters after decades of homeschooling

Whether you're a brand new homeschool parent or nearing graduation with your first student, this conversation will remind you to focus on what matters most: nurturing your children and growing together in faith and learning.

Feeling overwhelmed trying to homeschool multiple children? You’re not alone—and you’re not failing.

In this encouraging conversation, Yvette Hampton talks with veteran homeschool mom Missy Andrews about the very real weight homeschool moms carry every day. From managing a home to teaching multiple subjects across grade levels, it’s no wonder so many moms feel like they’re drowning.

But here’s the truth: the overwhelm doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong—it means you’re doing something incredibly important.

Missy shares why understanding what education really is can completely change your perspective and help you homeschool more effectively—and more joyfully.

If you’ve ever wondered, “Can I really do this?” this episode is for you.
