In spite of what the culture is telling us, boys and girls are different. Have you ever had a war break out in the middle of history, or had a single math lesson take three hours? Then you’re probably raising boys! If the world seems intent on gender-bending and forcing our sons into a feminized mold, Hal and Melanie, parents of six boys, explain the Biblical way out – and a better way to turn wild little dirt lovers into strong Christian men. This session will make you appreciate your boys as never before!

Because none of it will matter if they don’t follow Christ. Many homeschoolers hope and pray that because they’ve homeschooled, their children will turn out all right. But unfortunately, we are seeing a number of homeschooled children turning away from God in rebellion. We can’t make our children serve Christ, but we can make sure we aren’t standing in the way! Find out about the power of delighting in your children and loving them as Christ loves us. Hear how to point them to the Savior and teach them to serve Him!

Conflicts arise when parents least expect it, but it is part of normal family life.

Join Lavon and his two adult sons talk about “A Father’s Blessing to his Children!” One of his sons is a new father himself; both are not that far removed from having been in the thick of being homeschooled themselves. A Dad’s role in mentoring his sons is significant. Rather than just talking about big picture principles, they’d like to share some real life practical ideas and thoughts as they talk about the ups and downs of their journey. An open and honest question and answer period will be facilitated at the end.
