  • 66 - Ways to model TRUTH in your Catholic, Christian Homeschool.
    Apr 27 2025

    Send us a text! We’d love to hear from you!

    This episode is inspired by a conversation with a recreational marijuana petitionist outside the post office on a beautiful spring afternoon. It's important to have dialogue with those with different viewpoints. In a christian, Catholic homeschool we are well-equipping our children to learn their faith and engage in thoughtful, charitable conversations. The episode includes my favorite thing, a little anecdotal history in a discussion on Socratic questioning as a method to reveal truths, highlighted by a story about the philosopher Socrates. In this episode, you'll be encouraged to teach your children to have meaningful dialogues on touchy subjects and to trust that God reveals himself to those who seek him.
