Eek! I’d love to join you…desperately want to, but can I stay up for a 1am start time? I’ll see…life has been hectic here lately and I’ve been sooo tired.
If I don’t get to join in, I hope your talk goes well for you Robin, as I know it will be gratefully received by others.
Bless you online friend, who is always in my prayers,

I listened to the audios. They were wonderful. You did a great job and the message about fear was excellent.
By the way, I just had my 10th baby Wed. night, 8-6-08. Her name is Abigail Eden. She and I are both doing well.
Love,

Hello! This sounds like a very interesting podcast. I am a homeschooler of 6 children and enjoy anything that pertains to that. I wanted to listen to the podcast (well, actually download because I have turtle-net) but it is telling me I am at a broken link. Is it just me or is the link truly not going where it should? Thanks for any help!
BLessings,
Mona

great podcast Robin.
Comment by Susan :
Oh yeah! I’m interested in more…if and when you’re able.
Comment by MoBo :
Oh please definitely do more podcasts. I so enjoyed hearing your heart. Your motives behind the HOW Approach are in alignment with things I have been taught over the last few years; I am quite interested. I would also like to know how you approach Math. Thank you for your faithfulness.

I have become afraid of many things. I have yelled at my son lots of times. I can’t make decisions anymore because I married a man I thought was godly, but turned out to be treacherous. Because of my apparent lack of discernment and countless failures in all areas of life since, and advice from “experts”, I put my son into the local public middle school instead of homeschooling this year. I had no idea there would be so much opposition: legalism and apathy from staff and administration, an increasingly urban atmosphere and emphasis on not thinking. My son did not want to go to this school, but I could’nt decide what was best. So having no confidence in myself and no direction for homeschooling, I took him to that place. He’s smart and I felt I was keeping him at an academic disadvantage, but according to testing done at school, last year he learned as much with me at home, having no experience, as the other kids learned in public school. We used to have time to go to the gym and take walks in the park. We don’t now. There’s more tension because of all the meetings and phone calls and lack of cooperation from the school. I know there are times when parents must take their children to a public or private school (We also had a bad experience with one of those), But my fear made me send my child somewhere icky…more guilt, shame, self-loathing. I just wanted to thank you for the insight and let others know our experience. One question: Have you ever completely given-up on God?
Comment by Wendy :
Thank you for this podcast. It is what I needed to hear. The Lord has been speaking to me about resting in HIM. This is a wonderful confirmation.
Comment by Mrs. Hewett :
Robin,
I love the Heart of Wisdom teaching approach and look forward to using it with my children as they reach “school age”. Thanks for providing the homeschool audio above – your perspective on Christian homeschooling is invaluable.
Blessings,
Mrs. H
Comment by Elizabeth :
I love getting advice. The Bible says for the older women to teach the younger women. I would love to hear what you have to say! Thanks for doing what you do and keep up the good work!
In Christ,
Elizabeth
Comment by Kate :
Thank you so much for your words…they speak to my heart. I am looking forward to redoing our family’s educational (and lifestyle) focus using the HOW approach. The Lord is worthy of being our all in all! Kate in GA
Comment by Kathryn :
Thanks for the great words – and for letting me know you are on twitter. I started following you today and I can already see that your words of faith and inspiration are going to be just what I needed.
I stumbled across your book “What a Child Needs to Know When” just when I was considering giving up on homeschooling. It was the perfect words are the perfect time. You have the ability to explain what most of us know in our hearts and that makes following our hearts much easier.
Comment by Janis :
Wonderful words. What a blessing to everyone. I wholeheartedly agree in every way with every word. Your message confirms everything the Lord has led our family into for well over a decade, with many striking parallels to your own.
Oh, how I need to learn to rest in Him, EVERY moment of EVERY day, by His Spirit. Thanks so much for your gentle but firm and fortifying message, Robin. Shalom.
Comment by Laura :
Your writings have been an important part of my growth as a follower of Christ (which of course impacts homeschooling). Thank you for your oppenness and gentle spirit.
Comment by Jacque :
Great audio! I will be listening to it again!
I will blog about it and Tweet about it then too. I will let you know as described. I am also going to email some of my friends, because some of them are not on the internet, blogging, etc., and I want them to know!
Thank you for this. You are a sweetie!
Comment by QuietMom :
Fabulous. Can’t wait to listen to the audio. Love your stuff!

Robin,
Lovely audio! Great advice regardless of age, gender or the family size.
I’ll be sure to continue to point homeschoolers toward the Bible and your site.
Regards,

Comment by Debbie :
Thank you so much for your encouraging words, they were like a drink of cold water to my spirit!
Comment by Kim :
I came across your site on another homeschoolers blog. Fear…something I struggle with daily. I am not even homeschooling yet, as I will begin doing preschool homeschool with my little boy in the fall, but I already have many fears regarding it.
My husband and I knew from the beginning that we would most likely not send our children to preschool and that I would teach them from home at this age level. However, after observing children and teachers in the public school setting as a teacher myself, my husband and I have begun praying about whether or not to homeschool indefinitely. But then the fear sets in.
Fear…what will other people say about our decision, what will our family think about our decision, will our children miss out on social opportunities and friendships with their peers, will we be able to stay focused on the task at hand and stay organized? These fears are real and make me second guess our decision. However, we continue to bathe this decision of whether to homeschool indefinitely or not in prayer, prayin that the Lord will open or close doors when and where needed.
I am so blessed to be a mother and thankful that the Lord has entrusted my son, and soon my unborn daughter into our care.
Thanks for your encouraging words regarding fear.
Kim

Thank you so much for your encouragement. I will be starting homeschooling with my high schooler next week. I also have an infant that will be homeschooled from “day one”. I can’t wait to read your book. Blessings!
Comment by Julie :
I so needed to hear your words of encouragement today. I agree with everything you have said and am so happy that you have chosen to share with others! Thanks!
I can’t wait to read your books!
Have a blessed week!

Comment by Homeschooling :
This is absolutely fabulous stuff! Want to have some more from your side.
Comment by Sally Sundeen :
This sounds like the book to have when it comes to homeschooling around a Bible based curriculum. I’ve heard such great things about this book, and unfortunately I do not have it. I am a new homeschooler, with a Pre-K child. I would love to have this and be able to use it from now through high school!
Comment by HSB Suzanne :
Thank you for your encouraging words. The audio is awesome! I appreciate your commitment to the Lord.
Comment by Karen :
Oh girl, I ask myself these questions every single day! You were speaking straight to me. “He flows out of us when we abide in Him!” This is exactly what I needed to hear. I know I know this but I not only want to know it but live it. I am so grateful for the life God has given me yet I’m not showing gratitude the way I’ve been living. I know God is not pleased when I’m constantly overwhelmed and frustrated. This is not His Will for me and there is nothing more I desire in this world than to please God Almighty.
Robin, You were used by God this very day to speak straight to my heart. You have rekindled His fire within me and a desire to be filled with His living water. You said “If we are not producing the fruits of the spirit that we are quenching the Holy Spirit” I about lost it. This is a very hard pill to swallow and very hard to admit but I’ve let outside circumstances and the constant disapproval of others change my heart and create doubt & fear. I must stop and hear God calling me back to the simple truth. In & through Him I can do all things! Thank you so much for such an amazing message.
God Bless,
Karen @ Lil Momma’s Haven
