About this Episode

Are you looking for ways to bring your family closer together? Join Zan and Joe Tyler as they discuss how homeschooling sets the stage for powerful family bonding because of the vast amounts of time it gives you with your children. The Tylers reminisce about how family vacations, tragedies, travel, educational field trips, daily life, schoolwork, the children’s activities, and being outdoors together created shared emotional experiences that bound them together as a family. Joe says, “We really tried to use everything that happened in our family for the benefit of the Gospel and the benefit of bringing us closer together.”

Podcast Sponsor

At BJU Press Homeschool, we’re committed to providing children an education from a biblical worldview that is academically sound and challenges them to advance, think critically, and live like Christ. This type of education is not often possible in public schools because of the number of children taught in a classroom, a difference in worldview, and peer and societal pressure to conform. Homeschooling allows parents to instruct and disciple their children without daily fighting messages from an opposing worldview taught in the classroom. And with tuition costs and fees for private schooling or tutoring, homeschooling may be the only option for parents who are concerned for their children’s physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
