Simple Truths

Our children are not blank slates or academic projects. Not empty vessels or problems to fix. They are souls entrusted to us, they are born ‘persons.’

They already have minds capable of thinking, hearts capable of feeling, and a natural capacity to form relationships with truth, beauty, and goodness.

The goal is to nourish their minds with rich ideas, living books, and meaningful experiences.

Children don’t need everything simplified or watered down. They can engage with big ideas, form opinions, and make connections.

Because they are persons, they learn best through relationships—with people, with ideas, and with the world around them.

Lastly, they will not drift into wisdom, maturity, or godliness. It will be imparted by us as parents and by the Holy Spirit.

Ask God today to guide you into a feast of truth and beauty as you educate your children.

You will form an education philosophy as you move forward in your homeschooling journey. Let these truths be part of your foundation.
