Homeschooling From the Heart

Bibles Unbound

A friend just sent me an email about a really cool ministry opportunity called Bibles Unbound presented by Voice of the Martyrs. You can sign up on their site to participate in the program, or just read and pray for the effort, even if you are unable to help at this time. I read it to my kids and they said, "Let's do it!"

Basically you will have the opportunity to mail New Testaments to new 'friends' around the world who live in restricted nations. VOM supplies the Bibles and each one is sent to individual Christians who are hungering to have God's word. Not only do Christians receive the Bibles, but the Church is also gathering names and addresses of people who do not yet know the Lord, but are receptive learning more. It is cool to think that not only are we helping to meet the spiritual needs of fellow Christians, but also helping them to be a bold witness for Christ - often at great risk.

If you've never done so, I'd encourage you to visit the Voice of the Martyrs website and their site for Bibles Unbound. My kid have gathered blankets and sheets for Sudan and participated in other projects to help the Persecuted Church through the ministry of VOM. We have found it to be such a blessing to serve the Lord in this small way!

Remembering their chains...

Wow, does that ever look like a neat program! I guess the point about things like this is that while the country doesn't allow Bibles in inside your suitcases, etc., they can't check all the mail. So we can mail stuff through individually okay. That's great! I think my kids will love it.

Truly, a mother's heart IS her child's classroom! On this wonderful journey called homeschooling, it is always nice to have someone to encourage your heart and provide solid practical tips to equip you for the awesome task of educating your children for the Glory of God! I look forward to sharing product reviews, talking about learning styles, and looking at ways to minister to the hearts AND minds of our children!
