Episode Details

Missy Andrews Joins Yvette Hampton to share wisdom from her many years as a homeschool mom, curriculum publisher, and literature expert. This is an excerpt from Missy's interview on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast. For more Biblical homeschool encouragement listen to the the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Watch this full conversation on our YouTube channel. This week Missy and Yvette cover the following topics: Is it really possible for me to give my kids a top drawer, literary education when I am just one person - and maybe not even a very well-educated person? How can the concept of mastery education intensify the already substantial burden that homeschooling parents carry? How might clarifying our definition of education free us from the tyranny of booklists? If education isn't a list of facts and books, then what is it? If education is less about how many books you read and more about how you read them, then my booklist just got a lot shorter! Isn't this too good to be true? How might an unexamined view of success and identity complicate the homeschooling process?  How does the gospel liberate us to homeschool our kids joyfully and graciously?
