Today I am addressing cultural push back I received with advice on how being a mother hampers life and confuses the value of one's work. Plus I'm sharing how to dig deep and develop a biblical worldview on motherhood with two simple questions.Get the SPF newsletter: sheprovesfaithful.com/newsletterSupport the show $5 a month: patreon.com/sheprovesfaithfulShow Notes:Much of culture's push back to biblical values and commands is rooted in humanism, which defies the authority and purposes of God. Psalm 128 teaches that those who fear the Lord and walk in His ways are blessed. Christians root their values and purpose in the Truth of the Scriptures which teach that God is the authority and lays out His ways for us to walk in.When we read the Scriptures, we find our worldview including what to believe about motherhood. It should be wrapped up in the truth of God, and who we are according to him. While worldview involves our thoughts, it also involves our actions. And so here we have a full worldview of godliness, both the belief that there is prosperity when we fear and obey the Lord, and such a belief that our hands find themselves diligently doing these things. And from that there is prosperity."Religion and piety are the best friends to outward prosperity, giving God praise that it is so, and that we have found it so, and encouraging ourselves and others with it." Matthew Henry Two questions you can ask are - by what authority and to what purpose? when considering the cultural push back to motherhood. Your wife shall be like a fruitful vineIn the very heart of your house,Your children like olive plantsAll around your table.

Welcome to the Teach Them Diligently Podcast, where we delve into homeschooling and how parents can lead their family well through homeschooling. Join us as Amy Roberts of Raising Arrows shares her practical and encouraging advice on all things related to large family homemaking and homeschooling. From striking the delicate balance between teaching multiple ages to managing a bustling household, Amy brings a wealth of experience and wisdom to the table. Through her popular blog, podcast, and YouTube channel, she has become a guiding light for families embarking on the homeschooling journey. Get ready for insightful conversations, practical tips, and a touch of homestead harmony as we explore the joys and challenges of homeschooling in a large family setting.   Key Takeaways:Authentic Faith over Rules: Amy emphasizes the importance of moving away from rigid rule-following in parenting and homeschooling. Rather than relying on strict methods, she advocates for a faith-filled, day-by-day walk with Christ. Building Relationships: Parents should focus on building strong, deep relationships with their children. This includes being vulnerable about their own shortcomings and pointing their kids to Christ's love, grace, and mercy. Avoiding Arrogance: Amy warns against the dangers of parental arrogance, where families may look down on others or create a hierarchy of faith based on rules. Instead, humility and a focus on Christ should guide interactions with fellow believers. Preparation for the Real World: Parents should prepare their children for the realities of the world outside the homeschooling bubble. Sheltering kids too much can lead to difficulties when they are launched into adulthood without a solid understanding of the world around them. Restoration Over Condemnation: When children stumble or make mistakes, the goal should always be restoration, not condemnation. Parents should strive to be like Christ in offering love, grace, and forgiveness. Unique Family Dynamics: Each family is unique, and parents should appreciate the individual giftings and leadership styles of their spouses. Comparing one's family to others can lead to dissatisfaction and missed opportunities to embrace God's plan for their specific familyThis Discussion Covers:Moving Away from Rules to Authentic Faith Building Strong Relationships Avoiding Parental Arrogance Preparing Children for the Real World Appreciating Unique Family DynamicsAdditional Resources:Learn more about Amy Roberts and the Raising Arrows Podcast Join us for a Teach Them Diligently event in May.

What causes fights and quarrels among you? James asks.  Maybe you have asked that same question to your children. But if our homes are green houses, if they are training ground for our children, if the instruction we give is fodder for their heart and mind where emotions and actions are made, isn't it a grand opportunity to address conflict in a biblical manner? Today I am sharing four ways we can prove faithful in teaching our children about conflict with one another.   Show Notes: sheprovesfaithful.com/podcast/episode252 Support $5 a Month: patreon.com/sheprovesfaithful Get the Bible study: sheprovesfaithful.com/shop

I'm on a mission to simplify my life and streamline my systems AND to teach gt my kids on board with the systems also.  This frees me up to focus on what really matters - the hearts and minds of my children.  Having the kids participate in the home systems grows their character and gives them a framework for living a self-disciplined, productive life. In episode 124, you'll learn about several of my systems to make life simpler for busy households.  And I am so thankful that Amy Roberts from Raising Arrows joined us in this episode as our guest host!Quotes:"These systems increase simplicity and they also increase self-discipline in our kids." 'Why am I talking about our kids' internet usage in a time-saving strategies podcast? It's because having a family internet agreement saves us so much time in multiple ways. Such as, I don't have to wrestle with myself about what my rules are going to be today with the kids regarding internet. Otherwise, if I didn't have a clear plan for internet usage in our home, then on days when I was tired or sick or overwhelmed, then I would be very tempted to be very lax on those rules. And that's when things end up happening is when we're distracted as parents."Resources Mentioned (some are affiliate links):Internet Usage AgreementNet Nanny Filtering service, Covenant Eyes accountability serviceSimple Systems for Homeschool SuccessBlog post about my sticky note system with three Brain Books.Blog post about Save Your Sanity- one hour a week  meal prep.Raising a Luke 2:52 ChildWhen Littles are Loud: Maximizing the Moments without Drowning in ChaosWhen Little are Loud, blog post part 1The Tech Wise Family by Andy CrouchMeet our guest host, Amy Roberts of Raising Arrows:Blog - https://www.raisingarrows.net   Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/RaisingArrows    YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/AmyRaisingArrows   Podcast - https://raisingarrows.net/podcasts/Amy Roberts of RaisingArrows.net is a Christ-follower, devoted wife, homeschooling mother of 10, blogger, podcaster, conference speaker, and author.  With practical and encouraging advice, Amy helps moms manage their large family homes and homeschools.Amy Roberts - Raising Arrows®Blogger, Author, Speaker, Podcasteramy@raisingarrows.net | | | https://www.raisingarrows.net

I want to ask you something. Something that I want to truly challenge you to think about before answering…When you think about your kids, what is the line that you won't allow anyone to cross in order to protect them? Do you have an obvious blanket answer like “I won't allow anyone to physically hurt my kid.” Or maybe “I won't allow harm to come to my child.” Those are some pretty simple and obvious answers, right? Not that you would be wrong to say them because I completely agree with you. Someone comes at my kid with a weapon or tries to attack one of them? I'm stepping in before they get a chance. I make sure they wear their seatbelts when in a car, helmets when on bikes, and yes, because of my line of work I always have worst case scenarios going on in my head so it's a balance to not worry too much. When we look at the “end results” of our parenting, how do we hope our kids turn out? We can't guarantee they will end up being the person we dreamt for them, and we will have to accept facts that they will likely make decisions that we felt wasn't best. Throughout history, we read about leaders, world changers, or even local heroes that were in the right place at the right time. So, us being here, parenting the children we are parenting…living in the culture and world around us…this is not a surprise. It wasn't an accident. YOU are not an accident. You were chosen for this moment in time. You were chosen to parent your children. AND your children were chosen to be here, right now. This is not just a luck of the draw.If we look at it that way, keeping in mind that there is a reason for our family to be here, we can begin looking at the bigger picture and the end result.Do we throw the kids out and let them figure life out on their own? Of course not. And I'm going to share something with you that may or may not come as a surprise to you…No matter what anyone tells you…and I mean anyone…no one else on earth loves your children as much as you do and no one else has their best interest at heart more than you do so therefore no one else has the right to overstep a line that you feel should not be crossed. No amount of education, experience, or opinion can overrule that fact that you know your children and what is best for them more than anyone else. So you have the right, the permission, the ability to stand up, speak out, and say enough is enough. Have you seen the phrase “raising arrows” before? I've seen it on shirts, mugs, and other items. I know that it is a great phrase to address raising our kids. The idea behind it, if I understand it correctly, is that we, as parents, are raising children that when we send them out into the world, they are prepped and ready and steadfast.And I agree. That being said, I am going to take it just a bit further than that.I believe, at least for me, I am RAISING WARRIORS. I looked up a bit about warriors and found that a warrior stands against darkness. It doesn't succumb to darkness by losing faith or love. A spiritual warrior is one who lives a life with God and stands through life's battles with their head held high. Believes and knows God is leading them in every aspect of their lives.We are  discussing what that looks like in more detail today.Something special is coming this week over on Instagram, so make sure to go follow me and keep watching!If you anything in today's episode speaks to you, will you please share it? Make sure to tag me if you share on social media so I can  thank you!We need to be preparing ourselves and our children for the battle ahead. The battle against the evil that will go through every little space possible to worm its way into our families. With the intentional listening of instructions…putting on the full armor of God and TEACHING our CHILDREN to do the same…we can be confident that the Lord will not desert us. He will be our protector and our leader. We are called to be strong and courageous.We need to lead our children to stand against darkness and not succumbing. To hold tight to faith and love. To live a life with God and stand through life's battles with their heads held high. Believing and knowing God is leading them in every aspect of their lives.Because WE are RAISING WARRIORS.

Franklin D. Roosevelt said, “We may not be able to prepare the future for our children, but we can at least prepare our children for the future.”  As followers of Christ, we have a divine plan from God himself, to enable us to be the parents, that our children need and to give our children the guidance they deserve.

Do you ever struggle trying to get your kids to play outside? Do they get bored and want to come back in to soon? Do you want to get them to love learning in nature more?  I've got a very inspiring episode for you today! Amy Roberts from Raising Arrows is joining us to talk about nature bags and how to use them in your homeschooling and/or in getting your kids outside more!  Here's what I asked Amy:  "For the mama who wants to encourage her kids to get outside and play more (regardless of whether they homeschool or not) can you share a little about your idea of a nature bag, what you put inside it, and how it helps your kids discover and play outside more? (I LOVE your blog post and podcast you did on this topic. So just a quick overview would be awesome!)"  Links & Resources:  You can find Amy over at Raising Arrows Check out her very own podcast: The Raising Arrows Podcast (it’s one of my FAVORITES!)
