The challenges we face today are much different than in previous generations.
This year’s convention is timely in offering encouragement and empowerment
for the future. Whether you have a rich generational Christian heritage, are
a first-generation Christian or somewhere in between, the Lord promises
blessing!
All three days present sessions for beginners,
but Thursday is foundational. Please don’t
miss it! Home education is much more than

pathway will bring the knowledge and
direction you need to get started on the right
foot. Gain insight about the law, choosing
curriculum, learning styles, methods and
setting a framework for your day.
