Episode 33: The Heart of Home Education

Today’s conversation is with Gena Suarez, founder of The Old Schoolhouse magazine. Gena shares the story of her own family’s homeschooling journey, insights on how the homeschool landscape has changed, and thoughts on the importance of discipleship – not just academics – in the home education model. 

 

Paul and Gena Suarez reside in eastern Tennessee with their family and have homeschooled their seven children since 1990. They embrace and promote the Biblical philosophy that “homeschooling” is not so much about schooling and education as it is about discipleship – bringing up our children “in the nurture and admonition of the Lord” (Eph. 6:4). The Suarez family wishes to share this vision around the world as they publish the trade magazine for homeschool families, The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine. They can be reached at [e-mail].
