September 23, 2025
Homeschooling can bring up big questions, big emotions, and a lot of pressure. In this episode, I sit down with my friend Bethany to talk about trust in God when the plan you had for your family changes. Bethany shares how a reluctant, COVID-era start led her into a deeper walk with God, and how surrender reshaped her parenting, her expectations, and her daily life with God.
We talk about what it looks like to keep walking by faith when you feel unsure, when you are stretched thin, and when you realize you cannot do it in your own strength. Bethany also shares practical ways she found support through community, built a hybrid rhythm for her family, and learned to release control without giving up on growth in faith.
If you are in a season of life uncertainty, wondering if you heard God right, or simply needing faith encouragement for the day you are in, this conversation is for you.
