Parents considering homeschooling often worry about whether or not their children will turn out “normal”. They wonder if their children will emerge from homeschool truly prepared for success in life, or if they’ll emerge socially inept and uneducated. In this session, Daniel Craig, a homeschool graduate, will share why he is glad he was homeschooled, and why your children will be too. Based on both his personal experience, and the unchanging truths of God’s word, Daniel will help you understand what homeschool "success" really is, where it comes from, and the real reason it matters.

“This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased!” were the words spoken by the Father to the Son. “I delight to do Your will” were the words spoken by the Son to the Father. THe ultimate Father-Son relationship was characterized by delighting, and seeking to delight. Does this characterize your father-son relationship? Drawing from the Word and experiences as both a father and son, Daniel will paint a picture for both fathers and sons of how delighting and seeking to delight can help forge the strongest of father-son bonds.

No matter where we turn, we’re facing an epidemic of visionless, clueless, fantasy-driven young people. Stuck in an education system which fosters this disconnect from reality, few Millennials, even Christians, are able to successfully bridge the gap into real life. From the perspective of a millennial, Daniel calls students and parents to adopt a new paradigm for his generation in light of God’s word. Don't attend this session unless you are ready to be challenged with a new vision for life and an awakened understanding of the responsibilities God calls every young person to fulfill.

Walk into any bookstore in America, go to the self-help section and see how many books claim, in some fashion, to provide “the REAL Secret to a Good, Long Life.” Quite a few, right? But just how many do you think will tell you that the secret is to “Honor your father and mother that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth”? Probably not very many. Presented by a fella who has to work hard at honoring parents – just like anyone else, this practical session will get down and dirty with what it really means to honor your parents and why it’s so important. (Hint: it's the first commandment with a promise...) You won't hear this talk at your typical motivational seminar.

Why do you homeschool? Is it better test scores? Escaping transgendered bathrooms and sex-ed for six-year-olds? Passing on your faith to your kids? Those may all be good reasons, but if you want a motivation that will keep you engaged in home education for the long haul, you’ll need a deeper reason. You need to know the REAL reason we homeschool. Starting all the way back in Genesis 3, education has been ground zero in the battle between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of Satan. This session presents an enlightening biblical and historical perspective on this epic struggle in order to reveal the most important reason for homeschooling. Be encouraged, dads and moms! What you do matters even more than you imagined!

"Joy to the world the Lord has come" is a wonderful thing to sing at Christmastime when everything can seem to be joyous. But does this powerful truth set the tone of your home? Is your family characterized by the Gospel-powered joy that flows wherever the Kingdom of God has taken root? If you think you could use a little more joy in your home (like we all can!), take heart: "He comes to make his blessing flow, far as the curse is found"! How does He do that? Come and hear seven habits of joy-filled families that crank the faucet of "joy in the Holy Spirit" wide open!

This session is a “must hear” for parents and students alike. Everyone recognizes that there are problems with traditional higher education. Yet for all the press, commentary, and money spent to fix the problem, far too few people recognize the amazing benefits of one-on-one mentor-driven education. Even as homeschoolers, we often fail to realize that the need for biblical discipleship in education also applies to the college years. Get ready to adopt a new paradigm for “higher education” as Daniel explains how your student can launch into life NOW, with clear vision, through powerful mentoring relationships and real-life application.
