SR 873: Aby Rinella – Homeschooling Every Subject Series Kickoff

1
00:00:00,291 –> 00:00:01,416
I can’t wait to hear that.

2
00:00:01,416 –> 00:00:04,333
But, you know,
we know that music goes hand in hand

3
00:00:04,333 –> 00:00:07,041
with academia, with intelligence,
even with IQ stuff.

4
00:00:07,041 –> 00:00:10,041
I mean, music is so much more powerful.

5
00:00:10,541 –> 00:00:12,625
Hey, everyone, this is Yvette Hampton.

6
00:00:12,625 –> 00:00:15,000
Welcome back to the Schoolhouse
Rocked Podcast.

7
00:00:15,000 –> 00:00:20,000
I am so glad you are with us this week
because we are kicking off

8
00:00:20,000 –> 00:00:23,333
a new series this week
and I’m so excited about this one.

9
00:00:23,666 –> 00:00:26,250
This one is called Homeschooling
Every Subject.

10
00:00:26,250 –> 00:00:29,333
And I have had this on my heart
for quite some time.

11
00:00:29,333 –> 00:00:32,000
We did a few months ago.

12
00:00:32,000 –> 00:00:35,333
If you guys remember what you probably do,
if you listen to the podcast, we did

13
00:00:35,333 –> 00:00:37,458
a series called Homeschooling
through the years

14
00:00:37,458 –> 00:00:38,750
where we talked about home

15
00:00:38,750 –> 00:00:41,750
schooling, preschool,
all the way through the after years.

16
00:00:41,875 –> 00:00:45,250
And as we did that one, I was like,
you know, I really want to talk about like

17
00:00:45,708 –> 00:00:48,500
every subject,
because oftentimes the question

18
00:00:48,500 –> 00:00:51,666
is, well, how do we teach this
particular subject in our homeschool?

19
00:00:51,666 –> 00:00:55,666
So whether you’re kindergarten, third
grade, 11th grade, 12th grade, whatever,

20
00:00:56,125 –> 00:00:57,416
it’s always the question of how do I

21
00:00:57,416 –> 00:01:01,375
teach a specific subject to my kids,
especially when it’s a subject

22
00:01:01,375 –> 00:01:05,083
that maybe you’re not super familiar
with or very strong in.

23
00:01:05,083 –> 00:01:08,541
And so we’re going to talk about this
for the next several weeks.

24
00:01:08,958 –> 00:01:12,333
We’ve got let’s see,
we’ve got one, two, three, four,

25
00:01:12,333 –> 00:01:15,333
five, six, seven, eight, eight weeks
I should have before.

26
00:01:15,333 –> 00:01:15,625
Right now

27
00:01:16,791 –> 00:01:17,000
we’ve

28
00:01:17,000 –> 00:01:20,125
got eight weeks that
we are going to be running this series.

29
00:01:20,125 –> 00:01:22,708
And we’ll talk a little bit today
about who’s

30
00:01:22,708 –> 00:01:25,708
coming on to talk about those subjects
and what we’re going to be discussing.

31
00:01:25,875 –> 00:01:29,958
But before we do, I want to say thank you

I’m glad to be here.

45
00:02:08,875 –> 00:02:11,166
Yeah I’m excited about this.

46
00:02:11,166 –> 00:02:13,875
I’m excited to be here
because I like series.

47
00:02:13,875 –> 00:02:16,375
I like, I just like series.

48
00:02:16,375 –> 00:02:17,708
I like TV series.

49
00:02:17,708 –> 00:02:21,458
I like podcast series because I like order

50
00:02:21,458 –> 00:02:25,166
and I like, you know,
just yeah, everything in its place.

51
00:02:25,500 –> 00:02:27,500
It just makes sense, which it’s fun to do.

52
00:02:27,500 –> 00:02:29,000
Like the one off ones, you know?

53
00:02:29,000 –> 00:02:30,083
Totally, totally.

54
00:02:30,083 –> 00:02:32,875
But you’re right. Like a TV show
never has like one episode.

55
00:02:32,875 –> 00:02:35,666
No, it doesn’t always.

56
00:02:35,666 –> 00:02:36,833
Structure to it, right?

57
00:02:36,833 –> 00:02:39,750
Like, and then you’re excited
for the next one, right?

58
00:02:39,750 –> 00:02:41,250
Because you’re like, okay, all creatures.

59
00:02:41,250 –> 00:02:42,083
Did you know, by the way,

60
00:02:42,083 –> 00:02:45,416
All creatures, great and small is season
five is coming out.

61
00:02:45,416 –> 00:02:47,041
Did you have tell me you watched it.

62
00:02:47,041 –> 00:02:50,000
Think a. Series or No. What is it?

63
00:02:50,000 –> 00:02:52,458
What every listener right now

64
00:02:52,458 –> 00:02:55,458
just about fell out of their chair.

65
00:02:55,500 –> 00:02:58,583
was James Herriot, who’s an author
who is like my mom’s favorite author

66
00:02:58,583 –> 00:03:00,208
when she was a little girl.

67
00:03:00,208 –> 00:03:04,625
And it’s a it’s a
see at the TV series on BBC or PBS.

68
00:03:04,625 –> 00:03:07,208
I think it’s BBC.
It might be PBS. Anyway, it’s British.

69
00:03:07,208 –> 00:03:09,875
It is so amazing.

70
00:03:09,875 –> 00:03:11,250
And like, you can’t even.

71
00:03:11,250 –> 00:03:13,041
I can’t even believe you.

72
00:03:13,041 –> 00:03:14,208
Can I get it on Roku?

73
00:03:14,208 –> 00:03:15,958
Because the only thing we have.

74
00:03:15,958 –> 00:03:17,875
People are going to write you letters.

75
00:03:17,875 –> 00:03:18,500
That’s fine.

76
00:03:18,500 –> 00:03:19,708
Can you get it?

77
00:03:19,708 –> 00:03:22,083
It’s just amazing about it. So go.

78
00:03:22,083 –> 00:03:24,291
Okay. Write it down.

79
00:03:24,291 –> 00:03:25,666
All creatures big and small.

80
00:03:25,666 –> 00:03:27,875
All creatures
great and small. Great and small.

81
00:03:27,875 –> 00:03:29,958
All creatures great and small.
The whole family will love it.

82
00:03:29,958 –> 00:03:32,041
The entire family love it.

83
00:03:32,041 –> 00:03:34,250
And there’s no, like, weird agenda.

84
00:03:34,250 –> 00:03:35,833
There’s no weeping.

85
00:03:35,833 –> 00:03:36,958
It’s so wonderful.

86
00:03:36,958 –> 00:03:38,333
Talking about God’s creation.

87
00:03:38,333 –> 00:03:39,041
Is that what it is?

88
00:03:39,041 –> 00:03:40,041
Well, it’s about it.

89
00:03:40,041 –> 00:03:41,208
It’s about a vet.

90
00:03:41,208 –> 00:03:44,125
He’s a vet in. It’s not. A vet.

91
00:03:44,125 –> 00:03:45,416
Not even.

92
00:03:45,416 –> 00:03:46,583
But you.

93
00:03:46,583 –> 00:03:48,166
Some people call me a vet now.

94
00:03:48,166 –> 00:03:49,625
Some people call you Yoda.

95
00:03:49,625 –> 00:03:51,583
And it makes that to like the why.

96
00:03:51,583 –> 00:03:53,875
They’re like, Yeah,
but anyway, okay, people

97
00:03:53,875 –> 00:03:56,166
speaking of theories,
this is not a plug for all creatures.

98
00:03:56,166 –> 00:03:58,083
Great and small, but it sort of is.

99
00:03:58,083 –> 00:04:01,416
But we’re really talking
about a homeschool series this year in

100
00:04:01,458 –> 00:04:02,458
eight weeks.

101
00:04:02,458 –> 00:04:05,583
Yeah, well, well, real quick,
I’m going to give a quick plug here

102
00:04:05,583 –> 00:04:08,500
because we’re talking about things
that you can watch on your television set.

103
00:04:08,500 –> 00:04:10,625
Okay. Also known as a TV.

104
00:04:10,625 –> 00:04:13,500
Yes. As we all know,
that’s the acronym for television.

105
00:04:13,500 –> 00:04:15,333
TV, television.

106
00:04:15,333 –> 00:04:16,666
So, you know, of course,

107
00:04:16,666 –> 00:04:20,291
you can stream the movie Schoolhouse
Rock, the Homeschool Revolution for free.

108
00:04:20,500 –> 00:04:21,625
But now

109
00:04:22,666 –> 00:04:25,875
we have sitting in Garrett’s office,

110
00:04:26,250 –> 00:04:29,958
600 and something, plus Schoolhouse
Rocket DVDs.

111
00:04:30,083 –> 00:04:30,750
my goodness.

112
00:04:30,750 –> 00:04:31,041
Yeah.

113
00:04:31,041 –> 00:04:34,583
Our so our distributor because
because you can now stream it for free.

114
00:04:34,583 –> 00:04:36,750
People are watching it online. Right.

115
00:04:36,750 –> 00:04:40,291
And so the DVDs are selling
like when we go to conventions and things

116
00:04:40,291 –> 00:04:44,833
like that, we we always sell DVDs
and we have some other people like Israel.

117
00:04:44,833 –> 00:04:48,041
Wayne carries DVDs with him
and he sells them at his booth and others

118
00:04:48,625 –> 00:04:49,166
who are in the movie.

119
00:04:49,166 –> 00:04:51,833
I don’t even know who at this point
still has them,

120
00:04:51,833 –> 00:04:54,666
but but they sell it convention
and things like that when people,

121
00:04:54,666 –> 00:04:57,666
you know in person, but not a ton of
people are buying them online.

122
00:04:58,416 –> 00:05:00,833
They did three years ago
when the movie came out.

123
00:05:00,833 –> 00:05:02,541
Right.
So our distributor called us. Right.

124
00:05:02,541 –> 00:05:03,208
And they were like,

125
00:05:03,208 –> 00:05:06,625
So we have like 600 DVDs because they did
a whole second reprint of them.

126
00:05:07,125 –> 00:05:10,375
And then they were like,
We don’t know what to do with them, so

127
00:05:10,625 –> 00:05:12,208
we can either send him to you or recycle.

128
00:05:12,208 –> 00:05:14,666
And we’re like, Just send him to us.
So they sent them to us.

129
00:05:14,666 –> 00:05:18,625
So we have these massive boxes
stacked in Carrot’s office

130
00:05:18,625 –> 00:05:22,791
right now, and Garrett
just put them up on our website.

131
00:05:22,791 –> 00:05:27,208
So if anyone is interested in DVDs, like,
it could be a Christmas gift. For.

132
00:05:27,625 –> 00:05:28,500
Your family members.

133
00:05:28,500 –> 00:05:30,208
And that’s what I think
would be good as gifts,

134
00:05:30,208 –> 00:05:32,750
because you can send someone
a link to watch something

135
00:05:32,750 –> 00:05:35,125
and they’re just going to like that’s
going to sit in their email box for ever.

136
00:05:35,125 –> 00:05:39,958
But if you send them an actual DVD that’s
going to sit on their shelf and keep

137
00:05:40,208 –> 00:05:41,541
they’re going to
they’re going to watch it.

138
00:05:41,541 –> 00:05:43,250
And it’s a must watch.

139
00:05:43,250 –> 00:05:43,916
It’s a must.

140
00:05:43,916 –> 00:05:44,458
So buy.

141
00:05:44,458 –> 00:05:47,250
It for your friends and family
and then watch All Creatures

142
00:05:47,250 –> 00:05:50,250
great and small and watch Schoolhouse
Rock, the homeschool revolution.

143
00:05:50,291 –> 00:05:51,958
All in the same night.

144
00:05:51,958 –> 00:05:52,625
same.

145
00:05:52,625 –> 00:05:54,791
But maybe have like, a weekend.

146
00:05:54,791 –> 00:05:56,083
Yeah, give. Yourself a bunch of time.

147
00:05:56,083 –> 00:05:59,291
But if you guys are interested in DVDs,
you can go to our website now,

148
00:05:59,625 –> 00:06:04,083
click on the Purchase DVD button
wherever Garrett has placed that

149
00:06:04,500 –> 00:06:07,375
and you can purchase the DVD
and they’re they’re really good price

150
00:06:07,375 –> 00:06:11,000
I’ll just let you know and we would like
to get them out of our home.

151
00:06:11,541 –> 00:06:15,000
So. Awesome,
so great Christmas gift for those of you

152
00:06:15,000 –> 00:06:17,125
who would like to watch it,
or if you just have friends

153
00:06:17,125 –> 00:06:18,708
who are wondering about homeschooling
and you want to

154
00:06:18,708 –> 00:06:21,750
give them a physical movie,
then that’s the way to do so.

155
00:06:21,791 –> 00:06:25,541
And and it’s going to have a lot of value
someday because those things, yes, kids

156
00:06:25,541 –> 00:06:29,333
are going to be like, What’s this
circular thing that you put in a machine?

157
00:06:29,333 –> 00:06:29,666
Right?

158
00:06:29,666 –> 00:06:33,291
I know one of these days
it might end up at like Dollar Tree.

159
00:06:33,625 –> 00:06:35,208
Yeah. Or the museum.

160
00:06:35,208 –> 00:06:37,375
Or the museum. It could go either way.

161
00:06:37,375 –> 00:06:37,583
Yeah.

162
00:06:37,583 –> 00:06:40,666
They still sell them at the Creation
Museum and the Ark encounter.

163
00:06:40,875 –> 00:06:41,833
do. They?

164
00:06:41,833 –> 00:06:42,541
Well, that’s cool.

165
00:06:42,541 –> 00:06:44,791
Yeah, I think unless they sold out of them
anyway.

166
00:06:44,791 –> 00:06:46,958
Okay, so.
But we’re not here to talk about that.

167
00:06:46,958 –> 00:06:49,916
We’re here to talk about this new series
that we’re doing.

168
00:06:49,916 –> 00:06:51,208
And I’m so excited about it.

169
00:06:51,208 –> 00:06:55,375
And so I want to kind of run through
what we’re going to be doing

170
00:06:55,375 –> 00:06:58,125
and who’s going to come on.
And this is just our kickoff episode.

171
00:06:58,125 –> 00:07:01,791
This is just Abby and I coming on
because we wanted to give you a heads up

172
00:07:01,791 –> 00:07:05,250
and let you know that this is what is
coming up over the next several weeks.

173
00:07:05,666 –> 00:07:09,208
And so we’ve got all the subjects covered,
I think.

174
00:07:09,208 –> 00:07:10,458
I mean, I did my best to.

175
00:07:10,458 –> 00:07:12,458
I have a question and tell me.

176
00:07:12,458 –> 00:07:12,833
I mean, I.

177
00:07:12,833 –> 00:07:15,958
See this might get cut out
because you might have forgotten. Go.

178
00:07:16,041 –> 00:07:17,333
no, I don’t see math.

179
00:07:19,500 –> 00:07:20,250
Are you going to count?

180
00:07:20,250 –> 00:07:20,916
That is stand.

181
00:07:20,916 –> 00:07:23,833
Well, here’s no. Yes. Yeah. Okay.

182
00:07:23,833 –> 00:07:24,750
And here’s the reason why.

183
00:07:24,750 –> 00:07:27,750
We’ve actually already done
two entire episodes on math.

184
00:07:28,041 –> 00:07:31,791
So we’ll actually just plug
those kind of into the book.

185
00:07:31,791 –> 00:07:34,125
Can only handle so much math.

186
00:07:34,125 –> 00:07:34,833
So much math.

187
00:07:34,833 –> 00:07:37,833
And like you said,
we are doing a whole episode on STEM,

188
00:07:37,875 –> 00:07:39,541
which for those who might not know.

189
00:07:39,541 –> 00:07:42,416
This. Is science in technology, right?

190
00:07:42,416 –> 00:07:45,416
Science, technology, engineering and math.

191
00:07:45,500 –> 00:07:46,583
There you go.

192
00:07:46,583 –> 00:07:49,041
So so we will talk a little bit
about math there.

193
00:07:49,041 –> 00:07:52,000
But we’ve like I said, we’ve done
two entire episodes.

194
00:07:52,000 –> 00:07:52,750
Yeah, typically.

195
00:07:52,750 –> 00:07:55,500
Sorry if there are people
that want to hear more than two episodes

196
00:07:55,500 –> 00:07:56,416
all about math.

197
00:07:56,416 –> 00:07:59,000
They need more help than we can offer.

198
00:07:59,000 –> 00:08:01,000
Right? Right.

199
00:08:01,000 –> 00:08:03,708
But you’re a math person
and we’ve talked about this.

200
00:08:03,708 –> 00:08:04,916
You know, I love math here.

201
00:08:04,916 –> 00:08:08,541
We weird last night calls and ask me
a question and I’m like more, please.

202
00:08:08,541 –> 00:08:12,041
Like deep down, I was like, I hope he gets
it wrong so I can teach it to him again.

203
00:08:13,041 –> 00:08:13,625
my goodness.

204
00:08:13,625 –> 00:08:16,250
And math. Never have I said that.

205
00:08:16,250 –> 00:08:17,250
my goodness. So.

206
00:08:17,250 –> 00:08:22,250
So speaking of STEM, we’re having Robert
Walsh on to talk about that.

207
00:08:22,250 –> 00:08:25,916
And he’s from Excalibur Solutions
STEM Academy.

208
00:08:26,208 –> 00:08:28,166
I’ve not had him on the podcast before.

209
00:08:28,166 –> 00:08:30,708
So this episode is going to be amazing.

210
00:08:30,708 –> 00:08:32,250
And so I’m super excited.

211
00:08:32,250 –> 00:08:33,750
I’m excited about that one.

212
00:08:33,750 –> 00:08:34,375
Yeah, me too.

213
00:08:34,375 –> 00:08:37,791
We’ve never done an episode
on STEM before, so this’ll be a fun one.

214
00:08:38,000 –> 00:08:41,000
To do something that, you know, ten,
20 years ago parents weren’t

215
00:08:41,041 –> 00:08:42,958
thinking about teaching necessarily.

216
00:08:42,958 –> 00:08:45,041
I mean, they were doing science,
they were doing, you know,

217
00:08:45,041 –> 00:08:49,500
but it’s kind of a new field that our kids
get to explore this generation.

218
00:08:49,500 –> 00:08:53,666
So I’m excited about is I remember
when we were living in California

219
00:08:53,666 –> 00:08:57,958
and I want to say it was maybe about ten
or 15 years ago.

220
00:08:57,958 –> 00:08:58,791
I can’t remember exactly.

221
00:08:58,791 –> 00:09:00,541
I want to say about ten years ago

222
00:09:00,541 –> 00:09:03,750
and there was a new school
that was built somewhere near our house

223
00:09:03,958 –> 00:09:07,625
and it was a STEM school
and it was like all, you know,

224
00:09:07,708 –> 00:09:11,125
the excitement in the neighborhood
because the parents

225
00:09:11,541 –> 00:09:14,541
who wanted their kids to go to this space,
it was a public school,

226
00:09:15,083 –> 00:09:16,916
but it was focused on stem.

227
00:09:16,916 –> 00:09:19,541
And so if parents wanted their kids
to go to this school,

228
00:09:19,541 –> 00:09:20,875
it was kind of like a lottery,

229
00:09:20,875 –> 00:09:24,083
I think, where you would put your name in
and only certain kids got in.

230
00:09:24,083 –> 00:09:25,250
And so it was a really big deal.

231
00:09:25,250 –> 00:09:27,083
If your kid got in,
which I mean, I still wouldn’t

232
00:09:27,083 –> 00:09:30,791
put my kids in a public school
to learn about STEM, but.

233
00:09:30,833 –> 00:09:31,375
Right.

234
00:09:31,375 –> 00:09:33,000
But Robert Walsh is going to

235
00:09:33,000 –> 00:09:36,500
come on and he’s talking about
how to teach STEM in the homeschool.

236
00:09:36,875 –> 00:09:37,791
I love it.

237
00:09:37,791 –> 00:09:40,166
So probably from a biblical worldview.
Yes. Yes.

238
00:09:40,166 –> 00:09:43,166
Science, technology, engineering
and math was created by God.

239
00:09:43,291 –> 00:09:44,458
Exactly. Exactly.

240
00:09:44,458 –> 00:09:46,250
So it’s exciting.
I’m excited for that one.

241
00:09:46,250 –> 00:09:47,000
What else do you have?

242
00:09:47,000 –> 00:09:49,416
Yeah, well, I’ll come back and tell you
after the break. We’re going to.

243
00:09:49,416 –> 00:09:51,666
Take a break. We’ll be right back.

244
00:09:51,666 –> 00:09:54,666
Have you tried CTCMath yet
with your child?

245
00:09:55,000 –> 00:09:58,000
Here’s a testimonial
from another happy homeschool mom.

246
00:09:58,166 –> 00:10:01,708
Amber said, I’m
absolutely thrilled with CTCMath.

247
00:10:02,000 –> 00:10:05,875
It’s a rare find that I’ve used with
my children for more than five years now.

248
00:10:06,000 –> 00:10:09,208
I have six children
using CTCMath, and each child

249
00:10:09,208 –> 00:10:12,208
has found it easy to navigate
and very applicable.

250
00:10:12,291 –> 00:10:13,708
Thank you so much for all that

251
00:10:13,708 –> 00:10:16,708

We are back with Aby.

267
00:11:14,000 –> 00:11:15,833
All right.
So before the break, we talked about

268
00:11:15,833 –> 00:11:17,791
Robert
Walsh is coming on to talk about STEM.

269
00:11:18,750 –> 00:11:19,916
We’re going to talk about history.

270
00:11:19,916 –> 00:11:21,500
We’re going to do a whole week on history.

271
00:11:21,500 –> 00:11:25,833
And this one, of course,
I mean, I was like, well, there’s only one

272
00:11:26,333 –> 00:11:29,541
there’s not only only one good option
for this, but

273
00:11:29,958 –> 00:11:34,791
in my world of my friends,
I love Linda lacrosse, Cobar. Yes.

274
00:11:34,791 –> 00:11:37,375
She is the author
of The Mystery of History.

275
00:11:37,375 –> 00:11:40,375
And so she’s going to come on and talk
about history from a biblical worldview.

276
00:11:40,375 –> 00:11:42,541
And she kind of breaks
it apart about like,

277
00:11:42,541 –> 00:11:43,375
you know, what do you teach

278
00:11:43,375 –> 00:11:47,333
when what’s important to know in history,
what’s really not so important?

279
00:11:47,333 –> 00:11:50,000
But if your kids love history,
here are some things they can dig into.

280
00:11:50,000 –> 00:11:52,791
And she she just talks to the whole thing.

281
00:11:52,791 –> 00:11:55,875
And just so you know,
because I want you guys to understand,

282
00:11:56,541 –> 00:11:59,791
none of these are going to be like
when Linda comes on, she’s not there

283
00:11:59,791 –> 00:12:01,500
to sell you on the mystery of history.

284
00:12:01,500 –> 00:12:04,500
Like we’re talking about history,
like an overview of history.

285
00:12:04,500 –> 00:12:05,583
Right? Okay.

286
00:12:05,583 –> 00:12:07,708
So with all of these, it’s not we’re not,

287
00:12:07,708 –> 00:12:10,708
you know, promoting
one specific curriculum.

288
00:12:10,750 –> 00:12:13,708
We’re discussing how to teach these

289
00:12:13,708 –> 00:12:16,708
particular subjects in your home school.

290
00:12:17,166 –> 00:12:18,750
But she’s just a fantastic one.

291
00:12:18,750 –> 00:12:20,416
I mean, she loves the Lord.

292
00:12:20,416 –> 00:12:23,708
She knows everything
there is to know about history.

293
00:12:23,708 –> 00:12:25,916
I mean, it’s incredible, you know.

294
00:12:25,916 –> 00:12:28,083
And you want to bring it to life,
you know?

295
00:12:28,083 –> 00:12:30,583
And so that’s why if you’re like,
we don’t use that history, then.

296
00:12:30,583 –> 00:12:32,625
So these episodes will still be for you

297
00:12:32,625 –> 00:12:35,083
because it’s just
it isn’t specific to that.

298
00:12:35,083 –> 00:12:38,416
Like Yvette said, I want to reiterate
that it’s just an overview of

299
00:12:39,083 –> 00:12:42,083
of that subject. Yes. Yeah, absolutely.

300
00:12:42,083 –> 00:12:45,083
So Linda is going to
come on to talk about history.

301
00:12:45,208 –> 00:12:47,333
David Reeves, he is a new guest.

302
00:12:47,333 –> 00:12:49,333
And man, I loved interviewing him.

303
00:12:49,333 –> 00:12:53,333
He’s going to come in and talk
about science and he is an amazing guy.

304
00:12:53,333 –> 00:12:57,208
He just opened up recently
in the last couple of years,

305
00:12:57,208 –> 00:13:00,208
I want to say the last year,
last two years.

306
00:13:00,416 –> 00:13:02,708
It’s called the Wonders Center and Science

307
00:13:02,708 –> 00:13:05,791
Museum,
and it’s outside of Nashville, Tennessee.

308
00:13:05,791 –> 00:13:09,875
And I’ve not been there before,
but it looks absolutely amazing.

309
00:13:10,166 –> 00:13:13,041
And it is a science museum

310
00:13:13,041 –> 00:13:16,500
that has been built from
a biblical worldview, which is incredible.

311
00:13:16,500 –> 00:13:17,250
I think.

312
00:13:17,250 –> 00:13:21,750
I believe that it’s
I think he said it’s the only Christian

313
00:13:21,750 –> 00:13:25,333
worldview, science museum
I think, in the world.

314
00:13:25,458 –> 00:13:27,500
That’s amazing.
Now you’ve got the Ark encounter.

315
00:13:27,500 –> 00:13:30,791
But the Ark encounter, though they have
science stuff and the Creation Museum.

316
00:13:31,625 –> 00:13:34,041
Those are the. Constants, right?

317
00:13:34,041 –> 00:13:35,833
That one’s not considered.

318
00:13:35,833 –> 00:13:38,041
I don’t think it’s considered
specifically a science museum.

319
00:13:38,041 –> 00:13:41,875
And I know he’s worked hand in hand
a lot with, you know, the staff at the Ark

320
00:13:41,875 –> 00:13:42,625
Museum and stuff.

321
00:13:42,625 –> 00:13:45,625
So but he’s it looks really incredible.

322
00:13:45,625 –> 00:13:49,666
So he can go on and he talks about science

323
00:13:49,666 –> 00:13:51,875
and how to teach science
from a biblical worldview.

324
00:13:51,875 –> 00:13:52,833
And all of these guests,

325
00:13:52,833 –> 00:13:56,125
we talk about how to do these things
kind of kindergarten through 12th grade.

326
00:13:56,125 –> 00:13:58,875
So it doesn’t matter
what grade your kids are in.

327
00:13:58,875 –> 00:14:02,750
We’re going to talk about
all of these subjects kind of as a whole.

328
00:14:03,625 –> 00:14:07,291
So. So yeah, scientists find
that was a really fun one to do, right?

329
00:14:08,000 –> 00:14:09,458
This one was really fun, too.

330
00:14:09,458 –> 00:14:14,041
Monica Swanson
I interviewed her and we talked about P.E.

331
00:14:14,041 –> 00:14:17,625
and Health,
and I think the last time she was on,

332
00:14:18,083 –> 00:14:20,750
we we talked
about the end of that episode.

333
00:14:20,750 –> 00:14:22,541
I think she was talking
a little bit about that.

334
00:14:22,541 –> 00:14:25,708
And I said, I want to have you back on
to talk about money and health.

335
00:14:26,125 –> 00:14:28,375
And so she comes on and talks about that.

336
00:14:28,375 –> 00:14:30,083
And so it was a great conversation.

337
00:14:30,083 –> 00:14:30,250
We had a.

338
00:14:30,250 –> 00:14:31,458
Really good game
because you don’t really think

339
00:14:31,458 –> 00:14:33,166
about needing to do it with Huntsville
kids.

340
00:14:33,166 –> 00:14:33,958
You’re like, right,

341
00:14:33,958 –> 00:14:37,041
You’re outside 90% of the day,
running around, climbing my walls,

342
00:14:37,041 –> 00:14:39,458
jumping on my couch.
That’s when you shouldn’t be. There’s your

343
00:14:40,583 –> 00:14:43,583
yes, that is in the Rinella household.

344
00:14:43,875 –> 00:14:46,875
But Abby Rinella forgets
that not everybody lives

345
00:14:46,875 –> 00:14:48,791
the life that she lives with.

346
00:14:48,791 –> 00:14:51,333
Her kids always outside.

347
00:14:51,333 –> 00:14:53,458
I have to push my kids outside. Yeah.

348
00:14:53,458 –> 00:14:54,250
So this will help.

349
00:14:54,250 –> 00:14:58,250
And it is something that we that honestly,
physical education isn’t just

350
00:14:58,791 –> 00:15:00,083
we always think when we were kids.

351
00:15:00,083 –> 00:15:02,583
It’s running laps and climbing the rope,
right? That’s not what it is.

352
00:15:02,583 –> 00:15:06,625
It is health and exercise and nutrition
and just the overarching.

353
00:15:06,958 –> 00:15:08,250
Yeah, yeah.

354
00:15:08,250 –> 00:15:12,333
So and we talk about all aspects of health
too, like we talk about mental

355
00:15:12,333 –> 00:15:15,375
health, physical, emotional health,
all of that stuff.

356
00:15:15,375 –> 00:15:19,000
And so we just kind of encompass
the whole world of P.E and health.

357
00:15:19,000 –> 00:15:22,000
And, well. Just a great, great episode.

358
00:15:22,083 –> 00:15:25,750
Andrew putu is coming on and he’s
going to talk about can you guess.

359
00:15:25,875 –> 00:15:28,375
Wait for it, wait for staff.

360
00:15:28,375 –> 00:15:32,083
I’ll tell you that
it’s going to be something smart language,

361
00:15:32,333 –> 00:15:34,250
Language writing.

362
00:15:34,250 –> 00:15:35,041
Yeah. Yep.

363
00:15:35,041 –> 00:15:38,666
He’s talking about language
arts, writing, spelling it

364
00:15:38,666 –> 00:15:41,333
all, all the things having to do
with language arts.

365
00:15:41,333 –> 00:15:45,166
And again, this is not a
like ICW for those who may not know.

366
00:15:45,166 –> 00:15:48,708
Andrew Peter Wah, He’s the founder of
the Institute for Excellence in Writing.

367
00:15:49,375 –> 00:15:51,750
This is not a ICW commercial that he like.

368
00:15:51,750 –> 00:15:56,583
He’s going to give a broad overview
of how to teach language arts

369
00:15:57,041 –> 00:15:59,791
in our home school and so that he’s he’s

370
00:15:59,791 –> 00:16:02,791
just an amazing guest, an amazing speaker.

371
00:16:03,208 –> 00:16:06,041
And then I was looking for somebody
to teach music because I really wanted to

372
00:16:06,041 –> 00:16:07,375
talk about the arts.

373
00:16:07,375 –> 00:16:12,666
And so I wanted to separate music
and then art, right?

374
00:16:12,666 –> 00:16:16,208
And so I Garrett
and I were talking about it and Garrett

375
00:16:16,208 –> 00:16:19,208
said, Well, why don’t you have Andrew
People want to talk about music.

376
00:16:19,375 –> 00:16:20,541
It’s like, Wow.

377
00:16:20,541 –> 00:16:23,000
Of course
he’s the perfect one to talk about that.

378
00:16:23,000 –> 00:16:26,458
And if you don’t know, Andrew
taught the Suzuki

379
00:16:26,458 –> 00:16:29,458
method before he like he,
he is an incredible musician

380
00:16:29,666 –> 00:16:33,750
and he taught music before he ever
even got into the world of language arts.

381
00:16:34,041 –> 00:16:36,833
Like, that’s really his passion. Wow.

382
00:16:36,833 –> 00:16:39,833
And so he comes on and talks about music.

383
00:16:39,833 –> 00:16:40,916
I can’t wait to hear that.

384
00:16:40,916 –> 00:16:43,833
But, you know,
we know that music goes hand in hand

385
00:16:43,833 –> 00:16:46,541
with academia, with intelligence,
even with IQ stuff.

386
00:16:46,541 –> 00:16:49,125
I mean, music is so much more powerful.

387
00:16:49,125 –> 00:16:51,416
Yes. Okay. Here’s a little side note.

388
00:16:51,416 –> 00:16:55,291
I was I was reading this
amazing book called Evidence Not Seen.

389
00:16:55,291 –> 00:16:56,041
And it’s about

390
00:16:57,041 –> 00:16:57,791
a missionary.

391
00:16:57,791 –> 00:16:59,541
And she was in a Japanese internment camp.

392
00:16:59,541 –> 00:17:01,791
And she was it’s very Corey ten boom ish.

393
00:17:01,791 –> 00:17:03,625
But her name is Darlene Gibler.

394
00:17:03,625 –> 00:17:06,375
ROSE Amazing book. Incredible book.

395
00:17:06,375 –> 00:17:09,666
The first 40 some pages are boring,
but the rest of the book is amazing.

396
00:17:10,458 –> 00:17:15,375
Anyway, she, like in the internment camp,
was kind of the encourager of everyone.

397
00:17:15,375 –> 00:17:19,208
I think I probably shared about this book
before, and all of this scripture would

398
00:17:19,208 –> 00:17:24,083
just come to her mind and she’s like,
I didn’t even know that I knew that verse.

399
00:17:24,083 –> 00:17:26,250
And when she dug deep and figured it out,

400
00:17:26,250 –> 00:17:30,666
it was because of like Sunday school
songs, Scripture marry to music.

401
00:17:30,666 –> 00:17:34,708
And it’s so incredible
just the way that God designed our brains,

402
00:17:34,708 –> 00:17:37,791
you know, And musically,
how that actually helps our entire brain.

403
00:17:37,791 –> 00:17:41,458
So know, I’m sure he’s not going to talk
about VBS Sunday School songs.

404
00:17:41,458 –> 00:17:46,083
He’s going to talk about like, of course
this is his method, real music, right?

405
00:17:46,250 –> 00:17:48,750
And not just the Suzuki
method, but he’ll talk about

406
00:17:49,916 –> 00:17:50,458
music.

407
00:17:50,458 –> 00:17:52,958
And how we can interpret. The theory
and how to incorporate that.

408
00:17:52,958 –> 00:17:56,250
And yeah, the benefits of yeah,
teaching music to our kids

409
00:17:56,250 –> 00:17:59,375
and how you can teach music
without actually being a musician.

410
00:18:00,000 –> 00:18:01,208
Yourself that I need.

411
00:18:01,208 –> 00:18:03,875
Yes. Yeah, that’s
what most about me because how many. Yeah.

412
00:18:03,875 –> 00:18:07,041
I mean there are a lot of homeschool
parents who are musicians, but yeah, many

413
00:18:07,041 –> 00:18:09,500
I would say probably more who are.
Not are not.

414
00:18:09,500 –> 00:18:10,791
That’s going to be a good one.

415
00:18:10,791 –> 00:18:12,458
Yeah. Yeah, it is.

416
00:18:12,458 –> 00:18:15,166
And then Courtney Sanford,
she’s also a new guest.

417
00:18:15,166 –> 00:18:17,250
She’s going to come on and talk about art.

418
00:18:17,250 –> 00:18:20,250
She’s the founder of the Delightful
Art Company

419
00:18:20,500 –> 00:18:25,708
and she’s got some great resources and
just talks about how to incorporate art.

420
00:18:26,000 –> 00:18:28,791
And again,
for the parent who’s not artistic,

421
00:18:30,166 –> 00:18:32,875
that’s always kind of where I feel like
I fall like,

422
00:18:32,875 –> 00:18:35,500
man, I don’t know how to teach
this particular subject,

423
00:18:35,500 –> 00:18:38,708
so I want to just push it to the side
and not teach it at all.

424
00:18:38,708 –> 00:18:41,083
And so Courtney will be here to help us.

425
00:18:41,083 –> 00:18:45,166
For those of us
who are not great artists, I love it.

426
00:18:45,958 –> 00:18:46,458
Yeah.

427
00:18:46,458 –> 00:18:49,416
So and then I talked about Robert Walsh,

428
00:18:49,416 –> 00:18:53,166
of course, talking about time
and then our grand finale.

429
00:18:53,416 –> 00:18:56,041
This one, I’m super excited about.

430
00:18:56,041 –> 00:18:58,833
I was looking for somebody
to come on and talk about Bible.

431
00:18:58,833 –> 00:19:00,500
And of course

432
00:19:00,500 –> 00:19:03,833
we always want to incorporate Bible
into all of our subjects

433
00:19:03,833 –> 00:19:06,000
as much as possible,
and so you can incorporate it

434
00:19:06,000 –> 00:19:10,250
into science, history, music, language,
arts, all the things stem.

435
00:19:10,708 –> 00:19:13,375
But I wanted to talk specifically
about how to teach our kids

436
00:19:13,375 –> 00:19:14,958
how to study the Bible.

437
00:19:14,958 –> 00:19:17,875
And so the Lord led me back to Kim.

438
00:19:17,875 –> 00:19:20,291
Saugus Jones
If you guys don’t know who Kim

439
00:19:20,291 –> 00:19:23,916
Saugus Jones is, she is the founder
of the Not Consumed Ministry.

440
00:19:23,916 –> 00:19:26,916
And I know Abby,
you did a lot of her stuff.

441
00:19:26,958 –> 00:19:27,375
my gosh.

442
00:19:27,375 –> 00:19:30,375
We’ve done
probably everything that she has out there

443
00:19:30,500 –> 00:19:32,666
Bible wise, like all of her Bible. Great.

444
00:19:32,666 –> 00:19:35,625
And then we just started her
one of her language things.

445
00:19:35,625 –> 00:19:39,000
But we are right now
currently do in her Old Testament.

446
00:19:39,000 –> 00:19:40,916
I mean, they she has in the past.

447
00:19:40,916 –> 00:19:41,666
She’s my favorite.

448
00:19:41,666 –> 00:19:45,333
And again, it probably won’t be
just all pushing not consume stuff,

449
00:19:45,333 –> 00:19:49,541
but I will not consume stuff
because it is absolutely phenomenal.

450
00:19:49,625 –> 00:19:51,791
But I always say
every time we talk about Bible homeschool,

451
00:19:51,791 –> 00:19:56,458
I say Bible is not a homeschool subject
because you don’t graduate from Bible.

452
00:19:56,458 –> 00:19:59,750
You don’t take weekends off from Bible,
you don’t take spring and Christmas break.

453
00:19:59,791 –> 00:20:00,791
Bible is life.

454
00:20:00,791 –> 00:20:04,583
And like you said, you work it
into every subject, but it is also our job

455
00:20:04,583 –> 00:20:08,541
as parents to teach our kids
how to study the word of God.

456
00:20:08,541 –> 00:20:08,875
Right.

457
00:20:08,875 –> 00:20:12,625
And how to actually apply it
and study it and understand it.

458
00:20:12,625 –> 00:20:13,791
And so we do have to teach that.

459
00:20:13,791 –> 00:20:15,833
That’s something that is taught.

460
00:20:15,833 –> 00:20:16,958
Yeah, absolutely.

461
00:20:16,958 –> 00:20:18,833
So Kim is going to
come on and talk about that

462
00:20:20,125 –> 00:20:21,208
great conversation.

463
00:20:21,208 –> 00:20:23,583
I’m so excited about that as well.

464
00:20:23,583 –> 00:20:25,583
And, you know,
I always find that those are helpful.

465
00:20:25,583 –> 00:20:28,666
We did at the beginning of this year,
we kicked off the year

466
00:20:28,666 –> 00:20:31,666
actually,
we’re talking about how to study the Bible

467
00:20:31,916 –> 00:20:34,375
and but that was geared
more towards us moms.

468
00:20:34,375 –> 00:20:37,916
And there was, of course, stuff in there
for teaching our kids how to study.

469
00:20:37,916 –> 00:20:39,291
But this one’s going to be really focused

470
00:20:39,291 –> 00:20:42,958
on how to teach our kids from kindergarten
all the way through high school.

471
00:20:43,250 –> 00:20:44,875
How to dig in to the Word of God.

472
00:20:44,875 –> 00:20:49,125
And so Kim’s amazing
and I’m so excited to have her on.

473
00:20:49,458 –> 00:20:50,208
Yeah, about that.

474
00:20:50,208 –> 00:20:51,250
Yeah. Yeah.

475
00:20:51,250 –> 00:20:54,250
So that’s the whole series
and it’s going to be great.

476
00:20:54,458 –> 00:20:57,250
I’m so excited about this,
the series that we’ve done in the past.

477
00:20:57,250 –> 00:21:00,750
You know, like I said, we did the
homeschooling through the years recently,

478
00:21:01,291 –> 00:21:04,125
a few years ago is probably
about two years ago or so we did

479
00:21:04,125 –> 00:21:08,333
the Family series and that when we talked
about marriage, parenting, motherhood,

480
00:21:08,625 –> 00:21:11,750
siblings, siblings, grandparents, yet

481
00:21:13,166 –> 00:21:13,916
all of that stuff.

482
00:21:13,916 –> 00:21:16,250
And so
that when we really focused on the family

483
00:21:16,250 –> 00:21:20,083
and then the other series we’ve done
is the Homeschool Survival Series.

484
00:21:20,083 –> 00:21:22,583
And that one again was fantastic.

485
00:21:22,583 –> 00:21:24,750
Just kind of the like,
how do we get started?

486
00:21:24,750 –> 00:21:26,583
What do we do once we get started? Right?

487
00:21:26,583 –> 00:21:31,083
And we have for those who don’t know,
we have the homeschool survival kit.

488
00:21:31,458 –> 00:21:33,500
That’s a free download from our website.

489
00:21:33,500 –> 00:21:34,791
And if you watch the movie,

490
00:21:34,791 –> 00:21:38,708
if you go on the website and click
on watched Schoolhouse Rock for free,

491
00:21:39,000 –> 00:21:42,583
it will actually email you
with that survival kit for free.

492
00:21:42,583 –> 00:21:43,875
And it’s just a free download

493
00:21:43,875 –> 00:21:47,125
and it gives all the details and specifics
about how to homeschool.

494
00:21:48,083 –> 00:21:50,125
And yeah,
so we did that as a whole series.

495
00:21:50,125 –> 00:21:51,833
That was a couple of years ago too.

496
00:21:51,833 –> 00:21:52,958
I think that was shortly

497
00:21:52,958 –> 00:21:57,166
after the movie came out, not not too long
after the movie was released ten times.

498
00:21:57,166 –> 00:21:58,041
Fine.

499
00:21:58,041 –> 00:22:00,208
I know. It really is. So.

500
00:22:00,208 –> 00:22:02,166
So yeah, I’m excited about this series.

501
00:22:02,166 –> 00:22:03,291
I’m really excited.

502
00:22:03,291 –> 00:22:05,000
Okay, to ask you to wrap it up.

503
00:22:05,000 –> 00:22:06,541
Okay. Just for fun. Yeah.

504
00:22:06,541 –> 00:22:11,333
What are your two favorite subjects
to teach and what are your two least

505
00:22:11,333 –> 00:22:12,416
favorite subjects to teach?

506
00:22:14,208 –> 00:22:14,791
I like

507
00:22:14,791 –> 00:22:17,958
teaching
history, and I hated history as a kid.

508
00:22:17,958 –> 00:22:20,958
It was not interesting to me, and
I think that’s why I enjoyed teaching it,

509
00:22:21,250 –> 00:22:24,083
because I feel like I’m learning
so much of it for the first time.

510
00:22:24,083 –> 00:22:24,958
Right?

511
00:22:24,958 –> 00:22:26,708
And so I really enjoy history.

512
00:22:26,708 –> 00:22:30,833
It’s it’s fascinating to me and you know,

513
00:22:32,875 –> 00:22:36,541
probably well,
I would say probably language arts,

514
00:22:36,541 –> 00:22:39,333
because I really like to write.

515
00:22:39,333 –> 00:22:40,541
I love to write.

516
00:22:40,541 –> 00:22:44,541
And so which is kind of funny
because I didn’t used to love writing,

517
00:22:45,250 –> 00:22:48,500
but I have to be in the mood to write
and it has to be something that,

518
00:22:48,625 –> 00:22:51,125
that you want about.
Yeah, that I want to write, right?

519
00:22:51,125 –> 00:22:52,791
So if someone were to give me

520
00:22:52,791 –> 00:22:56,125
like a subject and say,
I want you to write about dinosaurs,

521
00:22:56,125 –> 00:22:59,125
no, I would be like,
No, I’m going to go do the dishes.

522
00:22:59,166 –> 00:23:01,041
Kids are probably the same way, right?

523
00:23:01,041 –> 00:23:02,750
Like, we have to remember that
when we teach our kids,

524
00:23:02,750 –> 00:23:06,000
we can just suck the writing joy
right out of them by being like,

525
00:23:06,000 –> 00:23:10,625
Write me a five paragraph essay
on, you know, Yeah, dinosaurs, right?

526
00:23:10,916 –> 00:23:13,000
We all love to learn
what we’re passionate about.

527
00:23:13,000 –> 00:23:13,875
Okay, what do you hate?

528
00:23:13,875 –> 00:23:15,416
Because I know you don’t like to teach
math.

529
00:23:15,416 –> 00:23:17,250
I already know, but what don’t.

530
00:23:17,250 –> 00:23:20,250
What other subject
do you not love to teach?

531
00:23:20,500 –> 00:23:22,458
Math. Yeah.

532
00:23:22,458 –> 00:23:23,500
I just said that right?

533
00:23:25,958 –> 00:23:27,416
Yeah, definitely math.

534
00:23:27,416 –> 00:23:30,625
And I want to say science,
but it’s not because I don’t.

535
00:23:30,625 –> 00:23:32,416
I love science.

536
00:23:32,416 –> 00:23:33,958
I have a really hard time with science.

537
00:23:33,958 –> 00:23:37,833
Like, there’s so many big words
and all the definitions and meanings,

538
00:23:37,833 –> 00:23:39,416
it gets very confusing to me.

539
00:23:39,416 –> 00:23:40,041
I’m like, What?

540
00:23:40,041 –> 00:23:43,666
Like right now Laci and I are studying
about cells and I’m like.

541
00:23:43,916 –> 00:23:45,291
Yeah, I know.

542
00:23:45,291 –> 00:23:49,375
I don’t understand this, or I know
some people like they just grab on to that

543
00:23:49,375 –> 00:23:51,208
and they’re like,
This is the most interesting thing ever.

544
00:23:51,208 –> 00:23:51,625
Totally.

545
00:23:51,625 –> 00:23:52,833
So I find it interesting

546
00:23:52,833 –> 00:23:56,166
because God, the Creator created it
and it’s fascinating to.

547
00:23:56,166 –> 00:23:57,291
Me, right?

548
00:23:57,291 –> 00:23:58,458
So I wouldn’t say that I hate it.

549
00:23:58,458 –> 00:24:01,458
It’s just I have a hard time with science,
but I’m

550
00:24:01,625 –> 00:24:05,291
so grateful for really good science
curriculum, right?

551
00:24:05,291 –> 00:24:07,791
The Christian science curriculum
makes it easy

552
00:24:07,791 –> 00:24:09,333
because then I don’t have to teach it.

553
00:24:09,333 –> 00:24:12,000
I just basically learn reading.

554
00:24:12,000 –> 00:24:14,458
I learn alongside of my child’s family.

555
00:24:14,458 –> 00:24:17,291
She remembers way more than I remember.

556
00:24:17,291 –> 00:24:19,958
She started telling me about themselves
the other day and I was like.

557
00:24:19,958 –> 00:24:21,166
I’m glad you got that.

558
00:24:21,166 –> 00:24:23,541
Yeah. You’re so smart like that.

559
00:24:23,541 –> 00:24:24,958
So funny.

560
00:24:24,958 –> 00:24:25,500
How about you?

561
00:24:25,500 –> 00:24:27,625
What’s what are your two favorites
in your teen least favorite?

562
00:24:27,625 –> 00:24:29,541
I like history, of course.

563
00:24:29,541 –> 00:24:31,625
I absolutely love teaching history.

564
00:24:31,625 –> 00:24:35,833
And again, I didn’t like history as a kid
and even into high school

565
00:24:35,833 –> 00:24:40,166
and even into college because it wasn’t
I didn’t seem relevant.

566
00:24:40,166 –> 00:24:41,708
It didn’t seem like it applied to me.

567
00:24:41,708 –> 00:24:44,708
And now I realize, my word,
it really, really does.

568
00:24:45,250 –> 00:24:46,708
Especially since 2020.

569
00:24:46,708 –> 00:24:48,583
I’m like, We need to learn some history.

570
00:24:48,583 –> 00:24:51,041
So I love
I absolutely love teaching history.

571
00:24:52,333 –> 00:24:54,750
I also loved I do like to teach math.

572
00:24:54,750 –> 00:24:57,291
I really like to teach math.

573
00:24:57,291 –> 00:25:00,750
I don’t like to teach math to kids
that are in middle school,

574
00:25:00,750 –> 00:25:03,750
not because I don’t like middle school
math, but because middle schoolers

575
00:25:05,666 –> 00:25:08,666
can be challenging
when you’re teaching them that.

576
00:25:09,833 –> 00:25:11,750
You’re not talking about any specific.

577
00:25:11,750 –> 00:25:13,708
Minutes, You’re just saying. In general.

578
00:25:13,708 –> 00:25:16,375
I enjoy teaching the math again.
So we just took it.

579
00:25:16,375 –> 00:25:18,083
Yeah, you you have to ebb and flow.

580
00:25:18,083 –> 00:25:18,750
Your curriculum.

581
00:25:18,750 –> 00:25:21,791
You’re like, this year we’re going to do
something where I’m not teaching math,

582
00:25:23,250 –> 00:25:25,083
and then what do I not like to teach?

583
00:25:25,083 –> 00:25:29,833
I used to say science because one I I’m,

584
00:25:30,333 –> 00:25:33,833
I was a lazy science teacher
and we live in a place where I can’t just

585
00:25:33,833 –> 00:25:37,375
run and grab, you know, this
like for science, you have to have like,

586
00:25:37,375 –> 00:25:40,750
okay, you need one rubber band
and one Q-Tip and one this and one that

587
00:25:41,291 –> 00:25:43,083
and all this supplies.

588
00:25:43,083 –> 00:25:45,333
And then I discovered, like,
you could actually buy the,

589
00:25:45,333 –> 00:25:47,500
the kits that come with all of it
with your curriculum.

590
00:25:47,500 –> 00:25:52,000
And that changed my life because
when I loved science, I loved science

591
00:25:52,000 –> 00:25:56,000
in those really, I learned in those
early years when I started homeschooling

592
00:25:56,000 –> 00:26:00,208
that you can that science is biblical
and I was a public school kid.

593
00:26:00,208 –> 00:26:02,791
So to me science was just a bunch of lies.

594
00:26:02,791 –> 00:26:05,250
It didn’t fit and I didn’t understand why.

595
00:26:05,250 –> 00:26:09,416
And then I started teaching the kids,
starting with the apology as Who is God?

596
00:26:09,416 –> 00:26:11,291
Who am I, whatever that is.

597
00:26:11,291 –> 00:26:13,916
And all of a sudden I was like, my word.

598
00:26:13,916 –> 00:26:18,333
Like, Yeah, creation is in science
and God knew this stuff in his Bible

599
00:26:18,333 –> 00:26:22,125
before the scientist ever even got it,
you know?

600
00:26:22,458 –> 00:26:26,541
And so then all of a sudden,
I really, I started to love science.

601
00:26:26,750 –> 00:26:27,500
But you’re right.

602
00:26:27,500 –> 00:26:29,833
I also struggle with some of these things
where I’m sitting there.

603
00:26:29,833 –> 00:26:30,750
I’m like, You’re never going to.

604
00:26:30,750 –> 00:26:32,250
They’re like, When are we ever going
to need to know this?

605
00:26:32,250 –> 00:26:35,666
I’m like, You’re
not unless you do need to learn, right?

606
00:26:35,666 –> 00:26:37,666
And then in which case,
I’ll teach you how to learn

607
00:26:37,666 –> 00:26:40,000
so that if you need to learn it,
you can learn it, right?

608
00:26:40,000 –> 00:26:43,291
But I mean, how many adults can tell you
every single part of every single

609
00:26:43,291 –> 00:26:44,708
scientific everything. Yeah.

610
00:26:45,916 –> 00:26:46,625
So anyway.

611
00:26:46,625 –> 00:26:49,833
Yeah,
I would say I’m learning to love science,

612
00:26:49,833 –> 00:26:52,875
but it’s still not my my favorite.

613
00:26:53,041 –> 00:26:54,791
Yeah. Yeah.

614
00:26:54,791 –> 00:26:56,916
You know, it’s really interesting
because as we’re talking

615
00:26:56,916 –> 00:26:59,458
about what we love
and what we don’t love to teach,

616
00:26:59,458 –> 00:27:01,958
we realize again
that all of our kids are created.

617
00:27:01,958 –> 00:27:03,166
So you. Actually.

618
00:27:03,166 –> 00:27:08,166
And so I, I’ve said this before,
but I hate those bumper stickers.

619
00:27:08,166 –> 00:27:10,958
You know, my kid was an honor student.
You know, a student.

620
00:27:10,958 –> 00:27:12,750
I can’t even like why?

621
00:27:12,750 –> 00:27:15,958
I mean, our kids
don’t have to ace every single subject

622
00:27:15,958 –> 00:27:19,250
because God did not make them to ace
like he’s given us all.

623
00:27:19,375 –> 00:27:21,208
A unique. Desire and ability.

624
00:27:21,208 –> 00:27:23,208
Yeah, They’re not going to work
every single career.

625
00:27:23,208 –> 00:27:27,416
They’re not going to encounter
every single possible scenario.

626
00:27:27,708 –> 00:27:30,000
Right? But God already knows those things.

627
00:27:30,000 –> 00:27:33,041
So as long as we teach them
how to learn, yeah,

628
00:27:33,041 –> 00:27:36,083
then there’s nothing they can’t learn
when the time comes, right?

629
00:27:36,208 –> 00:27:36,916
Exactly.

630
00:27:36,916 –> 00:27:39,291
So, I mean, you know,
if your kid is going to be a doctor,

631
00:27:39,291 –> 00:27:40,875
they should know about cells.

632
00:27:40,875 –> 00:27:43,750
And you know how they’re going
to want to learn about cells.

633
00:27:43,750 –> 00:27:45,083
They’re going to desire to learn.

634
00:27:45,083 –> 00:27:47,041
Exactly if God made them that way.

635
00:27:47,041 –> 00:27:49,250
So, yes, it’s all good stuff.

636
00:27:49,250 –> 00:27:51,125
God has created us all.

637
00:27:51,125 –> 00:27:53,041
In such an. Amazing and unique. Way.

638
00:27:53,041 –> 00:27:55,416
Yeah, I’m excited to hear
from all the people that God

639
00:27:55,416 –> 00:27:57,416
give them a passion for each of these.

640
00:27:57,416 –> 00:28:00,208
That’s fun with
this is every person that’s going to be on

641
00:28:00,208 –> 00:28:03,708
has a passion
and they’re wired to love that.

642
00:28:03,708 –> 00:28:05,416
That specific area.

643
00:28:05,416 –> 00:28:06,666
And so it’s just fun.

644
00:28:06,666 –> 00:28:09,166
You kind of catch their vision a little,
you know? Right?

645
00:28:09,166 –> 00:28:11,208
Yep. Yep. And every subject.

646
00:28:11,208 –> 00:28:11,750
Yeah.

647
00:28:11,750 –> 00:28:14,458
Can and should be taught in a way
that points your kids to Jesus.

648
00:28:14,458 –> 00:28:15,916
Absolutely. It matters most.

649
00:28:15,916 –> 00:28:17,833
So so we’re excited.

650
00:28:17,833 –> 00:28:22,041
This series kicks off tomorrow with Linda
Hope, our talking about history.

651
00:28:22,041 –> 00:28:24,166
So that’s who’s going to be on this week.

652
00:28:24,166 –> 00:28:27,416
And then stay tuned for the next,
you know, several weeks,

653
00:28:27,416 –> 00:28:30,833
the next couple of months where we’ll be
working our way through this series.

654
00:28:30,833 –> 00:28:34,541
And we might have a couple of other
surprise episodes thrown in there as well.

655
00:28:34,541 –> 00:28:36,208
So just stay tuned for that.

656
00:28:36,208 –> 00:28:37,750
You guys,
Thank you so much for being with us.

657
00:28:37,750 –> 00:28:40,791
Abbi, thank you for kicking
this series off with me.

658
00:28:41,083 –> 00:28:42,083
We love you guys.

659
00:28:42,083 –> 00:28:45,541
You can again
go to the website schoolhouse Rock dot com

660
00:28:45,916 –> 00:28:47,458
and you can stream the movie for free.

661
00:28:47,458 –> 00:28:49,250
You can purchase the DVD,

662
00:28:49,250 –> 00:28:52,125
give those out as gifts for people,
you know, Thanksgiving gifts.

663
00:28:52,125 –> 00:28:54,541
Christmas gifts.
Birthday gifts are Thanksgiving.

664
00:28:54,541 –> 00:28:56,500
That’s the thing.
Did I just mean hanging out?

665
00:28:56,500 –> 00:28:58,000
I mean, like you bring someone a turkey.

666
00:28:58,000 –> 00:28:59,208
I mean.

667
00:28:59,208 –> 00:29:00,708
A turkey and a DVD. Yeah.

668
00:29:00,708 –> 00:29:03,333
The Pilgrims and Indians figure
instead of.

669
00:29:03,333 –> 00:29:03,916
I have an idea.

670
00:29:03,916 –> 00:29:05,125
Instead of watching football

671
00:29:05,125 –> 00:29:08,041
on Thanksgiving, watch Schoolhouse
Rocked with your entire family.

672
00:29:08,041 –> 00:29:09,083
Everyone will love it.

673
00:29:09,083 –> 00:29:10,583
And I don’t even care about football.

674
00:29:10,583 –> 00:29:12,125
No. And all creatures great and

675
00:29:13,833 –> 00:29:14,791
small.

676
00:29:14,791 –> 00:29:15,458
All right.

677
00:29:15,458 –> 00:29:17,291
I’m going to I’m going to go
watch that. Now.

678
00:29:17,291 –> 00:29:18,958
You have to stop homeschooling.

679
00:29:18,958 –> 00:29:21,083
You should. Well, it’s so educational.

680
00:29:21,083 –> 00:29:22,458
It’s like, we’ll see that.

681
00:29:22,458 –> 00:29:25,291
They’ll become veterinarians,
right after that.

682
00:29:25,291 –> 00:29:26,791
my goodness.

683
00:29:26,791 –> 00:29:27,833
wow. Well,

684
00:29:27,833 –> 00:29:31,958
stay tuned to the very end to hear a clip
of what is coming up next on the podcast.

685
00:29:31,958 –> 00:29:34,000
We love you guys.
Have a great rest of your day.

686
00:29:34,000 –> 00:29:37,000
And we will see you back here tomorrow
with Linda Hope our by.

687
00:29:41,041 –> 00:29:43,541
You’re listening
to the Biblical Family Network.

688
00:29:43,541 –> 00:29:44,958
Hey, I’m Meeke and I’m Wil and.

689
00:29:44,958 –> 00:29:47,458
We’re the co-hosts
of the Culture Proof podcast.

690
00:29:47,458 –> 00:29:48,958
We want to invite you to join us

691
00:29:48,958 –> 00:29:51,958
every week as we discuss
what’s happening in the world

692
00:29:52,041 –> 00:29:55,916
and then filter those happenings
through a decidedly biblical lens.

693
00:29:56,166 –> 00:29:59,458
There are many questions,
especially when we see what’s happening

694
00:29:59,458 –> 00:30:03,083
in our culture today, but the answers
are found within the Word of God.

695
00:30:03,083 –> 00:30:05,000
So that’s where we want to look. Amen.

696
00:30:05,000 –> 00:30:09,416
When we resist those cultural trends that
rival the truth, we remain culture proof.

697
00:30:11,000 –> 00:30:11,333
One of

698
00:30:11,333 –> 00:30:14,875
the very first Things event
that comes to my mind about why we study

699
00:30:15,125 –> 00:30:20,083
history is because it helps
reveal the fallen nature of mankind.

700
00:30:20,458 –> 00:30:24,000
As you know, the Bible teaches
that all have sinned and fall

701
00:30:24,000 –> 00:30:25,375
short of the glory of God.

702
00:30:25,375 –> 00:30:28,583
But it may or may not surprise you to know

703
00:30:28,583 –> 00:30:33,166
how very unpopular
that biblical truth is today.

704
00:30:33,458 –> 00:30:36,208
So we have secularists and humanists

705
00:30:36,208 –> 00:30:39,208
actually telling us the very opposite.

706
00:30:39,625 –> 00:30:41,041
man’s really good.

707
00:30:41,041 –> 00:30:42,625
And in fact, we can get better.

708
00:30:42,625 –> 00:30:47,208
We just have to tweak it here and there
for so uncomfortable calling sin.

709
00:30:47,458 –> 00:30:51,375
Send here, because that requires
then that we’re accountable to our God

710
00:30:51,375 –> 00:30:52,666
and people don’t like that.

711
00:30:52,666 –> 00:30:56,541
But if we can just look at world
history as one,

712
00:30:57,083 –> 00:31:01,291
you know, giant volume of evidence, well,
what do we see there?

713
00:31:01,291 –> 00:31:04,166
I think we see this fullness of man.

714
00:31:04,166 –> 00:31:05,875
I think we see his depravity.

715
00:31:05,875 –> 00:31:07,333
It’s on full display.
