Join me and Christie as we chat about how to help our kids find their deep roots in Christ.

We also chat about reasons parents might find it hard to disciple their kids (roadblocks to discipleship, mentoring, and teaching the Bible), and a few ways we can integrate our faith into our parenting style.

Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R77ZGIyh41k

Christie Thomas is a Western Canadian homeschool mom of 3 boys and spends her evenings helping Christian parents disciple their kids without having to know it all or do it all.

Here are a few ways to prepare mentally for homeschooling your high schooler:

• Get them into the mindset of homeschooling (deprogramming from a public or private school), and help them ease into home education
• Plan their high school academics in advance according to their future plans. Visit HSLDA.org to verify state regulations.
