I used to say that homeschooling was our lifestyle but now I say our lifestyle is our homeschool!
Lifestyle Homeschool is about discipling our children; about character training, about everyday life giving learning opportunities, about Bible study and practical skills. Your lifestyle will provide the experiences that will give your children a rich education.
This week I’ve been thinking about passion – what is my passion?What is passion?Thanks to Hollywood we think of romantic passion but I believe there is more.Jesus was passionate – Paul was passionate – the early Christians were passionate.The early Christians – they turned the world upside down!You can’t do that without passion.But what about me?Am I passionate about the things God would have me be passionate about.I think of Paul again – as Saul he was a passionate man, and yet Jesus apprehended him and he came to see that the things he was passionate about were not the things the Lord Jesus was passionate about.Saul, changing his name to Paul, changed his passions to be in line with Jesus.We need to do the same.What passions will I be known for?
I recently read a fascinating book on Paul written by Johnny Cash and his passion/zeal both before and after his conversion came through very strongly. It is called Man in White - a novel on the life of the Apostle Paul. It is one I will be encouraging my teens to read. Linda Gage
