Invasion of the Conviction Snatchers
Thursday July 31, 2025 2:00pm - 2:50pm EDT
Do you have a child who doesn’t want to be homeschooled, in-laws who don’t understand your reasons for homeschooling, a spouse who isn’t sold on the idea, or a guilt complex reminding you that you have no business homeschooling your children? Those nagging, sometimes-silent disapprovals can crush a person under the weight of guilt and despair.

You sometimes feel like a wave tossed to and fro because in your heart of hearts you feel God would have you homeschool…but then again, the arguments against it are almost drowning you.

Join Todd, as he goes face to face with the naysayers and shows you how to address their concerns, questions, and logic of why you shouldn’t homeschool your children.

The Horror of the Flood
Thursday July 31, 2025 2:00pm - 2:50pm EDT
Could you explain where the water for a world-wide flood would have come from, & where it all went afterward?! Many Christians can’t. Understanding the flood (the purpose, causes, aftermath and evidence) is very important to an understanding of a biblically sound creation model. This session covers the basics of this event, and also includes a video & PowerPoint presentation of the “Hydroplate Theory” - a biblically accurate and scientifically feasible portrayal of the flood event.

Thursday July 31, 2025 3:10pm - 4:00pm EDT

The Roots of Anger: Teaching Children to Handle Emotions Biblically
Thursday July 31, 2025 4:20pm - 5:10pm EDT
Anger is a natural emotion, but when left unchecked, it can lead to frustration, broken relationships, and spiritual distance from God. The Bible warns parents of the seriousness of unchecked anger in our children, so in The Roots of Anger: Teaching Children to Handle Emotions Biblically, David will dive into understanding the foundational nature of anger and explore how to guide children through it in a way that honors God.

This workshop will equip parents with:
• A biblical perspective on anger and its root causes. • Practical strategies to help children channel anger in a productive, godly direction. • Insights into how unchecked anger can lead children away from the Lord and ways to prevent it. • A deeper understanding of what triggers anger (anxiety, frustration, injustice) and how to respond with love and wisdom. • Tools for modeling repentance and reconciliation when you, as a parent, make mistakes.

By the end of this workshop, you’ll have the tools to create a home environment where anger is handled biblically, strengthening your relationship with your children and guiding them in emotional growth and spiritual maturity.

The earth is wearing out just like the Bible said it would. The earth is undergoing changes that can be seen everywhere. Why do volcanoes erupt? Why are there earthquakes? Why do rocks fall from the sky? What are comets? Why are there unique weather patterns? Is the earth warming? If so, why? Why are all continents shifting toward the Pacific? What produces El Niños? What does the mid-Atlantic Ridge have to do with the west Pacific? Etc. The answers are all related, & might surprise you!

Whole-Family Charlotte Mason Schedule Planning
Thursday July 31, 2025 4:20pm - 5:10pm EDT
The best part of homeschooling is gathering all of the children together around the table or in the family room and reading stories aloud. Sadly, a lot of homeschool curriculum does not fit well with this style of home education. Many books and programs divide children within the family into grade levels for all subjects, like a public school. There's good news, though! Learn how to make a Charlotte Mason-style homeschool schedule that will work for your whole family.
