As homeschooling parents, we want to raise young people of faith, of character, of wisdom and knowledge, who are positioned to fulfill God's purposes in their lives and become young adults of great influence, both at home and in the marketplace of life. We believe an excellent education is an important part of that process. But, Parents, we must not let education become an idol at the expense of all that really matters. Let's talk about priorities and how to keep first things first.

“Book Smart” kids may do well in school, but who will prepare them for the realities of life? Becoming “Life Smart” is critical for real-world success. Steve & Annette Economides have been teaching life skills to children since 1995 in the areas of personal responsibility, organization, personal appearance, attitude, and work ethic. You can create an atmosphere of learning where everyday experiences are the vehicle to develop children into adults who excel in every area of life.

Sam is going to share our family’s vision of what we saw that scripture taught concerning the Christian family. Our highest calling as fathers is to “train up a child in the discipline and instruction of the Lord” Ephesians 6:4 [ESV]. This training was based on our family philosophy, and it was used to form these four points: 1. Start early 2. Teach fundamentals 3. Protect their environment 4. Practice, practice, practice We patterned our training from a sports perspective.

Share your fears and ask your questions of this 20 year homeschool veteran. Get advice on curriculum types, homeschool models, how to homeschool with a wide range of ages, what to do with a toddler underfoot, where to go for legal counsel, and more.

The USDA estimates it will cost $261,000 to raise a child through high school. Steve and Annette will show you how to successfully raise your children for a fraction of this cost. Since 1995, they have been teaching their kids to earn, save and spend their own money. They'll cover the system they've developed and how you can customize it to fit your own family's lifestyle. By training your kids (of any age) to handle money wisely, they will be prepared to enter adulthood ready to soar. They’ll also share the 8 bonuses their kids experienced by learning to stay financially independent.

Conflict arises when parents least expect it, but it is a normal part of family life. Christian Discipline (child training…not punishment) in the home is essential for healthy relationships and creating an atmosphere where God is honored and learning begins. Unfortunately, accomplishing that goal from the toddler years to the teenage years is difficult and confusing. In this fast-paced, how-to workshop, Roger and Jan will share practical ways of dealing with common areas of conflict from a Biblical perspective.

A homeschool dad can sometimes feel like an outsider – going to work and then coming home to hear about his family’s activities. In this candid session, 25 year homeschool veterans Steve & Annette Economides share the 5 things Steve did to unintentionally undermine his wife and children, and 5 things God taught him to restore and build-up his family. Steve will lead dads to discover how to become an integral part of family life and create a powerful foundation of peace and hope in their homes.

When was the last time you laughed? Do you remember when you laughed so hard that it made your stomach hurt? Children laugh way more than adults. What would happen if we laughed just a little bit more each day? What if we chose laughter instead of raised voices or tears? Family should be a safe place where we can giggle, laugh, and sing together. With a combination of her experience as a professional counselor and her natural ability to bring out lots of laughter in her audiences, Jeni's presentation will leave you with a lighter heart and tangible ways to keep things in perspective with all the "togetherness" in real-life family.

Join the Welches and their homeschool graduates as they present how to practically impart the key elements of servant leadership in the context of home and family. Believing that our children should be agents of initiative and influence, they will address the challenges of transferring courage, creativity, intentionality, and responsibility. Come hear how they turned these big picture ideas in to real life, practical steps. A portion of the time will be allotted for you to hear from and ask questions of their children.
