Our Vision for Homeschooling: (Why we educate our children at home) 1. God gives instructions to parents to teach their children a. Deut. 6:5-9 Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates. 2. God wants what is godly and right to be taught a. “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge.” Proverbs 1:7 b. “In whom [Jesus Christ] are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.” Col.2:3 c. “But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night.” Ps. 1:2 d. “Set your mind on things above, not on earthly things.” Col. 3:2 e. “Do not be conformed any longer to the pattern of this world…” Romans 12:2 3. What are the advantages to homeschooling?

What do I want my child to be like; what is the goal of our parenting when they leave this home? a. Luke 2:52 says, “And Jesus grew in wisdom and in stature, and in favor with God and men.” When your child has grown to maturity, what do you desire to see as fruit in their lives? b.
