As parents, we have a beautiful opportunig to give our chidlren our words- words of encouragement and love that will stay with them for a lifetime. When our words and instruction are rooted in Scripture, we can remember that God promises that His Word will not return void. Discipleship is a key part of parenting. In this episode, I share a tool that has been a help to Simeon and I as we seek to disciple our own children and fill their hearts and minds with words that will point them to Jesus.

How do we raise children who are confident, responsible, and willing to help others? 

In this episode, we're talking about why chores are about so much more than keeping the house tidy. They're one of the most powerful ways we teach our children that they are valuable members of the family, that their contributions matter, and that they are capable of doing hard things.

Our goal isn't to raise children who simply complete tasks. It's to raise capable, resilient people who notice the needs around them, serve others with joy, and grow into adults who believe, "I can do hard things."

Hormonal birth control is often presented as a simple solution for preventing pregnancy and managing symptoms like painful or irregular periods. But what if there are important conversations about its effects on the body that many women aren't hearing?

In this episode, we take a closer look at hormonal contraceptives—how they work, how they influence the menstrual cycle, and why understanding your body's natural rhythms matters. We discuss the role of ovulation, the importance of a healthy menstrual cycle as a vital sign, and why simply suppressing symptoms may not always address the underlying issue.

Whether you're currently using hormonal birth control, considering it, or simply want to better understand your reproductive health, this episode is designed to encourage informed conversations and help you ask thoughtful questions about your options.

"For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he:"

How important is our thought life? It is estimated that we think an average of 60,000 thoughts each day. Many of these thoughts are repetitive and negative. Repeated thoughts stregthen neural pathways, so it is vital that our mind is anchored in the truth of God's Word.

In this episode, we discuss...

-Your mind is a battleground

-What you dwell on shapes who you become

-You must guard the "input" of your mind

-You must replace, not just remove, wrong thinking

-You must have daily discipline over your mind not merely occasional effort

-Peace is the result of disciplined thinking

Do you ever wonder, “Am I doing enough?” as a homeschool mom?

You’re not alone. In this episode, we’re offering a reminder that homeschooling was never meant to be measured by perfection, packed schedules, or completed checklists. The heart of homeschooling is faithfulness—loving our children well, discipling their hearts, and creating a home where learning, wonder, and connection can grow.

Join us as we explore encouragement from beloved homeschool voices who remind us that our presence matters more than perfect lessons, that childhood is worth protecting, and that some of the most meaningful learning happens through simple moments together. From read-alouds on the couch to adventures outdoors and everyday conversations, these reminders will encourage you to embrace the beauty of the homeschool journey right where you are.

Because years from now, your children may not remember every worksheet or lesson plan—but they will remember the atmosphere of home you created.
