Education is one of the most challenging topics for many parents. Do we homeschool our kids? Is it okay to send them to public school? Or should we invest in private school?

What about a parent’s role in their child’s education? How much responsibility should we shoulder versus the school itself?

These are questions we tackle in this episode with Mr. Stuart Tutler, the Headmaster of New Hope Academy in Franklin, TN.

We describe Mr. Tutler as a student of pedagogy. He has a passion for learning about the methods of teaching. In other words, in this episode, Mr. Tutler shares with us what he’s learning to be the best ways to teach kids.

Encouraging parents, he answers for us a few questions:

  • Who’s responsible for a child’s education?
  • How important is it that my child gets good grades?
  • What is the role of experience in a child’s education?
  • How do we navigate the private, homeschool, or public school discussion?
  • Why and how should we emphasize wellness (i.e. nutrition, movement, rest, etc.) in our child’s education?
  • How can we educate our children–and ourselves–about the history and issues related to both racial reconciliation and empowering the poor?

Speaking of these latter two topics, one of the reasons we love New Hope Academy is because they are committed to providing an excellent, Christ-centered education to all students while intentionally reserving 40 to 50 percent of their seats for children from low-income households. With an emphasis on economic and racial diversity, the heart is to teach kids to love all people.

Our discussion in this episode ends with ways we as parents can help our children do just that. No matter your choice of schooling, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.

No doubt 2020 was a year of chaos and disruption. Every one of us more than ready to enter 2021. Although a new year means a clean slate, life will always have its challenges. Not far into 2021 we already had another national crisis. Throw in world events, a pandemic, school cancellations, and not to mention personal illness or family crises, how do we navigate the new year as a family?

In this episode, we raise one question we keep asking in our home, “How can be famous at home and love our neighbor in all that’s happening around us?” To answer that question, we put together a family survival guide to being famous at home in 2021! Some highlights include: 

	•	How to manage fear
	•	How to talk to our kids about and navigate world and national events our respective countries
	•	What does it mean for us to love our neighbor?

Together, let’s set the tone for what God wants to do in 2021!

“First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.” 1 Timothy 2:1-4
One of the best ways to teach kids discipline is t One of the best ways to teach kids discipline is through fasting. It’s important for them to learn that when they fill their lives with stuff, they leave less room for God. Some of this stuff could be the use of unkind words, whining and complaining, devices, TV time, social media, sugary drinks or foods, and more.

In this 5 minute episode, Josh and Christi talk about a recent experience they had fasting as a family. They encourage your family to do the same as they provide helpful ways to do so.

What better time to do this than in the beginning of a new year?!
