New Product Watch!

 

Keep an eye out for the next e-book in the Values-Driven series--Values-Driven Discipleship: Character Training and Biblical Instruction Manual.

 

Let's face it, most of us aren't Bible scholars. Add to that the time pressures of everyday living, and it becomes painfully obvious that we, as parents, need HELP in fulfilling the all-important Biblical mandate to raise our children in "the nurture and admontion of the Lord." 

 

That's why we're so excited to offer this topical Bible reference to parents. It's an all-in-one discipleship resource that can truly help you to "make the most of every opportunity" and turn your child's heart to Christ.

 

Stay tuned for the product release!

Many of you purchased e-books in October, and we were able to give more than expected to Lynda & Lauren Coats to help defray some of their medical expenses.

 

This month, we're giving all of our VDF e-book proceeds to benefit missions in Pakistan. God is doing amazing things in the Muslim world, and we're honored to help support the spread of the Gospel in this area.

 

We were recently blessed to receive a review copy of Marilyn Rockett's Homeschooling at the Speed of Life. Initially, I wasn't sure if this book would be for me, since we're in a pretty comfortable homeschooling routine and I didn't really "need" anything in particular when I started reading.

 

At first I simply found Marilyn's gentle encouragement and personal testimonies edifying. I was grateful to have some affirmation about some things that we're doing that are working--but then I also found many helpful suggestions that caused me to revise some things that weren't.

 

Finally, being the organization-junkie that I am, I found that I particularly loved the companion CD that comes with the book--chock full of just about any kind of form you can imagine. A treasure trove for the manager of the home!

 

In particular, Marilyn's "Weakness/Strength" form showed me how valuable it could be to review the children's work performance in conjunction with the distribution of their monthly allowance. How "real-life" can you get? It has been helpful to leave these charts on the refrigerator, so that I can gently remind the children about ways they can improve things as they go about their daily chores.

 

I would highly recommend Homeschooling at the Speed of Life to new and veteran homeschoolers alike. Marilyn has been-there, done-that, and she has a practical and uplifting style that's sure to speak to every mom.

 

We're excited to be able to offer some of Marilyn's very helpful charts as FREEBIES, so you can get a taste of some of the great things that are available in this resource.
