Home School Heartbeat Radio Program

What's the best way to promote homeschooling? By being a happy, successful homeschooling family. Join Mike Smith on today's Home School Heartbeat as he looks at the picture of homeschooling that we present to the world around us.

Mike Smith:
This week we've been talking about the promotion of homeschooling in all avenues of society, from the home to the media.


We should remember that homeschooling is a personal decision. Each family is in a unique position and will have different ideas about the reasons they're homeschooling. However, God charges parents with the responsibility of raising children. Therefore, we'll be held accountable. We're also called to be ambassadors for Christ, and that includes our families.


Proverbs 10:1 says that a wise son brings joy to his father but a foolish son grief to his mother. People will look at your family and determine whether homeschooling is a valid alternative. The contrast between homeschool children in terms of social maturity and academic excellence should be noticeable in order to make an impact on others.


Most homeschool families succeed through hard work and God's grace. It's encouraging to see more and more families receive the blessings that come from homeschooling. The key reason that many more families are coming to know the benefits of homeschooling is because a homeschool family reached out and shared the blessings that come with this lifestyle.


Let's continue to share the good news of Christ and homeschooling. Until next time, I'm Mike Smith.
