About this audiobook
Quiet the voices of "not good enough" and step courageously into guilt-free homeschooling
Many homeschool parents have a long-term relationship with self-doubt. "Did I make the right decision?" "Could someone else do this better?" "Am I robbing my kids of something by not sending them to 'regular school'?"
What if there's a better way? Not a three-step technique or a shiny, new curriculum, but a change in perspective that transforms the way you plan, teach, and homeschool?
Homeschool Bravely teaches you to see homeschooling as a calling, helps you overthrow the tyranny of impossible expectations, and guides you through the common bumps in the road, including how to: juggle school and parenting with toddlers at home; teach a struggling learner; plan with the end in mind; accept your own limitations without feeling guilty; and stay the course even in the face of criticism.
Reclaim your hope, renew your purpose, and transform your homeschool. Because the truth is: God will use every part of your homeschool, even your fears, faults, and failures, to weave good plans for your kids.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I was leery of reading a book by a blogger, but it did not disappoint. I borrowed it from the library and then bought my own copy. Erickson hits the nail on the head of homeschool moms fears, doubts, and worries. She provides encouragement that only God can truly give but it is helpful to have it pointed out by a fellow Christian who is on the same teaching at home path. A must read for Christian homeschool moms!

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Just what I needed. Amazing and full of encouragement and guidance. Thank you.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Such an encouraging and God-filled book! I loved the scripture examples. It truly does fill one with bravery to homeschool.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I listened to this on audiobook but might order a copy to keep on a shelf. I loved her practical applications and examples of how to homeschool well. I loved the scripture references and biblical reasons to keep going. I just had to defend my decision to homeschool this week and wish I had listened to this before that conversation! I also appreciate that she doesn’t make homeschool the only option for Christians but encouraged each family to identify their “why” for doing it and what our goals for our specific kids are. The chapter on helping a difficult child/ not seeing the “extra” kids in your home as a conflict of homeschool was really encouraging to me. Great book for Christian homeschoolers!
