Questions answered and topics covered in the full three-part interview:

Why understanding the WHY of homeschooling is so important

Why we must know what we are running to and how to get there

Why homeschooling doesn’t guarantee the salvation of our kids

Why all kids respond differently even when we use the same methods, and since every kid is different, how we can cater our homeschool, parenting, and discipleship to each individual child

Nurturing relationships in the midst of hard seasons or with difficult children

The role of the Holy Spirit in salvation and in Christian living

What it means to rest in the work of Christ on our behalf and for our identity

What to do as moms when we feel tired and worn out

How the good news of the Gospel bring peace and hope to our homeschooling and families

Practical ways to point our kids to Jesus on a regular basis

Final encouragement o the parent who's doing it all "right," yet their child just isn't responding
