Two Keynote Speakers
Todd Wilson will set the stage for a Strong Marriage, Strong Family, Strong Homeschool focus this year with his humor and gut-honest realness. He is author of Help! I'm Married to a Homeschooling Mom and The Official Book of Homeschooling Cartoons.

Sat, 05/25/2013 - 8:30am - 10:00am
When we are rooted and grounded in Jesus, we are equipped to lay down their lives for each other and have our heart turned towards our children. God is full of mercy and grace. In this session we will explore the gospel and its impact on our view of God, ourselves, and our children.
