Christian Homeschool

Academics are not the main focus of a Christian homeschool.

• Who is God?
• What has God done?
• What does God require?

In teaching the above, parents provide children with the foundation they need to live their lives for Christ.

Biblical Worldview

As Christian parents, we must also equip our children with a biblical worldview. Keeping the following verses in mind:

“Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is – his good, pleasing and perfect will.” Romans 12:2

and

“…we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” 2 Corinthians 10:5

We must teach our children how to interpret social and political issues from a biblical viewpoint, remembering to not only tell our children how we feel about certain topics, but also why we feel the way we do.

Keeping the Faith

According to Considering Homeschooling, studies show that “85% of Christian children sent to public school drop out of church, and do not hold a Christian worldview by high school graduation.”

As Proverbs 22:6 states, “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.”

Homeschoolers are in a unique position to shelter their children from negative influences and spend time training them in the ways of the Lord.
