I feel a need to say that I am not as legalistic a home schooler as my recent posts look like. I felt a need to represent how I try to cover the bases, while still always learning, home education being a lifestyle and not just academics. The academics help me stay on track with certain skills to be learned, and then comes certain content to be presented, not by way of filling a container, but by ways that support explorative thinking, including questions that lead to discussions of worldview.
Above all is the spiritual character training of arrows and eternal souls for God.
Most of all I am amazed at how God equips us for this mission, if we lay down our agendas and do all His way, on His time, seeking Him, always. My way is tinkling brass, while His ways are full of the richness of God's glory.
