Why We Choose to Homeschool
As a teacher, instructional coach, and certified administrator, I considered public schools my mission field for many years. However, in November of 2019, I began to feel God preparing me for something new. I attended a local homeschool conference that January just to see what it was all about, and I listened to a speaker talk about his book entitled, Education: Does God Have an Opinion? I was embarrassed to admit I had been an educator for 15 years…and I wasn’t sure what God’s opinion was. As I read through the pages of that book, it became abundantly clear that God’s idea for educating his children was that parents have the primary responsibility to “teach them diligently” (Deuteronomy 6:7) in His ways.
