A mom wrote to me this week...

"We’ve only been using the curriculum for one month and the difference that we have experienced in our home and school life has been dramatic. Granted, the Holy Spirit has already been doing a lot in us by giving us “the gift of repentance” and “transforming us by the renewing of our minds” in some very key ways. However, getting to switch curriculums has been part of that. My son has always been a very strong personality and clearly has a leadership gift on his life, but that has meant that “in the raw” he has been rather prideful and not very teachable. It was so bad that I ended up switching to Robinson Curriculum which meant that he basically had to learn on his own. The problem was that even though it is technically Christian it was not teaching a Biblical worldview. At all. Meanwhile Holy Spirit has been at work in me and brought me back to this desire to use the Word as our textbook. So before it has been extremely hard to motivate my son and to get his work done in a timely manner. Even though it was just the basics of reading, writing and math. Now our days feel so “oily”...so much grace and joy and inspiration! Actually, joy has become our new normal! He is generally positive now and quick to respond and get his work done. Even writing which he has hated, he is doing it without complaint. He’s showing that he’s actually hearing and “keeping” what he’s learning. He’s also struggled to memorize stuff but he’s memorizing Scripture easily. He even has taken initiative to continue practicing memory verses from past weeks in order not to lose them. He’s got me doing that now too!! I love that we are able to keep Yeshua and His Word in our minds and mouths all day long effortlessly. There is something so amazingly “centering” and grounding about having the Word be our consistent focus. EVERYTHING is easier. Truly “His yoke is easy and His burden is light”! I’m also loving learning right along with my son. Because now everything that we learn is really just about being amazed by our amazing God! The other day we were learning about dragons in history and we decided to do some more research and we found some videos from Answers in Genesis that were both interesting and fun. These moments are also creating precious connection moments between my son and I whereas in the past there has been a lot of friction. We are bonding as Holy Spirit is breathing life through the Word. Just today I was absolutely shocked when the science work for today was to review his vocabulary from the past weeks and he actually knew a lot of the key words...he’d “kept” them! I really am experiencing being served by the curriculum rather than being a slave to it. We get to just follow where the life is, whatever Holy Spirit is breathing on. In addition, I find myself looking forward to my days now because there’s so much less stress in them. I experience being in charge of my days rather than “under them” if that makes sense. And I’ve also been sleeping better. I love how I’m also getting to “lose” a lot of compartmentalization and dichotomies in the way I’ve done life because everything seems to just come together and flow in a way that I don’t even understand. Somehow the mystery of “losing your life” in order to find it...dying to the wisdom of worldly education methods for the wisdom that comes from above and is pure, peaceable and full of good fruits. Thank u so much for this indescribable gift!" (written by G, a missionary living overseas)
