Sweethearts almost can't stop saying "I love you" to each other, but siblings almost can't stop fighting even though they love each other. How do we show love to the people that we see the most? How can doing this affect not only the family, but our friends and neighbors? MaryAnn Gaver, homeschool mom and contributor to the Home School Court Report magazine, will look into effective ways to set up a foundation of love within the family. Along with Belinda Parrish, homeschool mother of eight, MaryAnn will show how loving words and actions between parents and siblings provide a powerful testimony of Christian love to the world. Sign up for this encouraging and refreshing e-vent and let love blossom! |

Imagine social workers and the police taking your child because you homeschool - a remote possibility? Few homeschoolers in the United States will ever face such an extreme circumstance, even though it has been known to happen. But in countries like Germany and Sweden, where parents are persecuted for homeschooling, the possibility of children being taken away is very real. Why should this matter to us in the U.S.? HSLDA Staff Attorney and Director of International Relations Mike Donnelly will interview international homeschooling parents in exile and other guests to discuss why what happens over there matters over here. You'll be able to call in to join the discussion, ask Mike questions, or share any personal experience you've had. This e-vent is absolutely free, so don't hesitate to find out how you can help homeschoolers who struggle for freedom and recognition. |

Christian parents have a strong desire to see their children accept Christ, but often struggle with identifying their role. What part do parents play in their child's salvation? Have they failed as parents if their child continues in unbelief? A few parents have asked, "What about the gospel-isn't there a children's version that is simplified" This forum will seek to address these questions and others as look at what God's word says on the topic. Teacher, author, and homeschool father Dr. Stuart Scott will use a presentation that he developed to share with his own children as a tool in explaining the gospel to children. Author and homeschooling mother Martha Peace will join Stuart throughout the presentation and answer your questions about parenting. Sign up for this special e-vent today! Please note that this e-vent has been rescheduled to March 8, 2012. We hope that you will join us! |

Pseudoscience and speculation are creeping into the Church! Are Christians conceding their beliefs to a worldview based on millions of years of evolution? Do the hypotheses of secular science align with the teachings of Scripture, or are they slowly undermining God's authority? Millions of years require millions of compromises on the part of Christians. Know that you can trust the Bible and its redemptive truth. |

The book of Genesis was God's foundational pillar for His people thousands of years ago, and is no less so today. In it one finds His plan of grace unfolding, from the creation of a perfect world to the devastation of sin and the Fall that corrupted all things. Genesis clearly illustrates our world's need for a Savior and foreshadows Christ's redeeming work on the cross. |

Dr. Werner tells his personal story, describing his 30-year journey of discovery played out over three continents, unearthing truth one fossil at a time. In order to solve the controversy created by the evolutionary theory, he reviewed thousands of fossils from the dinosaur era, comparing them to animals and plants of today. He shares what he has learned along the way that influenced his decision to abandon evolution altogether. |
