HOMESCHOOLING BEGINS WITH HOME
CHRISTIAN HOMESCHOOLING BEGINS WITH CHRIST

SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE

Scholarship Overview

This series of Christian Homeschooling Articles addresses the following themes:

  1. Relationship
  2. Stewardship
  3. Scholarship
  4. Easy Recordkeeping

Purposefully

train your children to

develop skills that will equip them to

acquire knowledge that will serve them

as they serve the Lord and others.

Skill

  • A learned power of doing something competently;
  • A developed aptitude or ability.

Knowledge

  • The fact or condition of knowing something with familiarity gained through experience or association.

Webster’s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary

What????

You may be thinking, “That’s an interesting line, but what does it mean practically?”

I pray that this series of Christian Homeschooling Articles will help you to clarify in your own mind the two broad aspects of education scholarship:

  1. Developing Skills and

  2. Acquiring Knowledge.

What connects
these two broad areas of
skill development and knowledge acquisition?

Discipline.

Discipline

  • Training that corrects, molds, or perfects the mental faculties or moral character.
Webster’s Ninth Collegiate Dictionary

This section of Christian Homeschooling Articles on scholarship progresses through the three seasons of homeschooling. As you read through the seasons, I hope you…

  • perceive how these two broad aspects of education—skills development and knowledge acquisition—build upon each other and change over time; and

  • discover the underlying, hidden benefit of your decision to homeschool your children:

    Your increasing discipline
    will enable you, Mom, to grow in
    personal skill development and knowledge acquisition
     with your children.

Relationship ~ Stewardship ~ Scholarship

May the Lord become the anchor of your soul
while navigating through the waters of homeschooling
as you yield to His work in your life
through these three “ships.”

He will be the sure foundation for your times,
a rich store of salvation and wisdom and knowledge;
the fear of the Lord is the
key to this treasure.
~Isaiah 33:6
