Our Hosts
Daniel & Megan
Daniel & Megan Craig first started homeschooling about 25 years ago … well, their parents did! As homeschool grads, they are enthusiastic about home education, discipleship, and the church, and they take that into their daily life. Together, they desire to raise their family (two little ones so far!) to know and love Christ wholeheartedly in the context of daily family relationships, and they are grateful for every opportunity to share that passion with others!
Todd & Jessie
Todd and Jessie are committed to raising their children in the fear and admonition of the Lord, seeing the importance of strengthening future generations for the work of the Kingdom. They’ve been homeschooling their 8 children for the past 18 years, and just graduated their first child last year. Todd also serves as a pastor of their local church.
Brandee
Brandee and her cowboy husband, Roy, are fourth-generation ranchers. Their prayer as they raise their four cowpoke sons is that they will grow up to be warriors for Christ who are passionate about learning. Brandee considers it a joy to speak truth with love and laughter for other parents on the same homeschooling journey!
