Prepare Our Kids to Not Forget
Why this Summit?
It’s a Homeschool Summit like never before.
We’re about to experience history with a flipped perspective, because we have a high call from our Lord:
Prepare Our Kids to Not Forget
It’s easy to forget.
History can feel like a pile-up of dates and names that are easily lost.
Who cares?
God cares.
And God commands us to care.
In Psalm 78, God charges us to teach our children — to teach their children — to:
Set their hope in God
Not forget the works of God
and Keep His commandments

Why teach history?
Because it is a grand story of God’s works. By remembering the past, we prepare our kids for the future.
So sign up now to access select free sessions and prepare to:
-
experience history like never before with almost-lost stories of God’s work throughout time
-
reinvent how you teach history with a God-centered view
-
and reengage in the excitement of living a life by faith in our great God
And bring your whole family along! It will be an event you won’t forget — to Prepare Your Kids to Not Forget.
But wow — is it ever a fight to stay on target.
Our enemy knows the power of our mission, and he’ll use any means possible to keep our eyes down, looking to worldly success. We’re confronted by anti-God systems and patterns everywhere we turn, even in our own homeschool cabinets, and especially in our own hearts.
We’ve got to keep looking to Christ and find a way to integrate a God-centered mindset into our children’s education.
Why Homeschool Summits?
“Through Homeschool Summits, God is slowly building back my confidence…and reminding me that teaching my kids to love Him and know Him is the most important thing.”
“I felt like I got supercharged in my hope and convictions and my firm foundation solidified and built upon. I’m so grateful for this Summit!”
“I used to be anxious about our homeschooling, but now I know that being faithful to the Lord and discipling our children are our priority.”
You’ve got questions? We’ve got answers.
Yep, for sure! The Exhibit Hall and selected sessions listed for free on this page are all just that – no cost to you and no strings attached. (You can opt to register for an All-Access Pass to get even more exclusive video content, but that’s up to you.)
We encourage you to connect with us via Facebook to participate in some great discussion and Q&A, but it’s not required.

Meet your hosts
Your hosts for Homeschool Summits meet with each speaker over video chat right at home — essentially your own personal guides through the Summit. We hope you’ll feel like friends! Get to know them a little here:
Daniel & Megan
“We’re in the throes of learning what it means to raise a family to the glory of God; as homeschool grads ourselves, we have a great burden to build on all our parents taught us as we raise our three children. We’re eager to take our passions for home education, discipleship, and the Church to impact this generation and the ones to come for Jesus Christ!”
Sam & Bekah
“We’re second generation homeschool parents, married for 10 years and blessed to parent 6 children. We’re grateful to pursue our passions for the local church, raising up the next generation for the Lord, and providing our children with a Christ-centered education, for the glory of God!”
Brandee
“My husband, Roy, and I are fourth-generation cattle ranchers, and I spend my days homeschooling my cowpoke sons, praying for them to be warriors for Christ and passionate learners. It’s my joy to speak truth with love and laughter for other parents on the same homeschooling journey!”
A little more about the rest of us
Homeschool Summits is brought to you by a small team of homeschool parents and grads in the ministries of Generations and CHEC. Through Homeschool Summits, we share resources and encouragement that families need to homeschool with confidence and pass on the faith to their children.
Why all this? Because we’re on a mission to reach the next generation with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
