Podcast appearances and mentions of sherri seligson

Culture often pits faith and science against each other—but as believers, we know they are intentionally and beautifully woven together by our Creator for His people to explore and enjoy. Yet, studies show that by age six, many girls already perceive themselves as less capable in STEM-related fields than boys—a gap that only widens over time. How can we, as parents, counter this message and inspire our daughters to see science as an avenue for both discovery and worship?  In this episode, American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Patti Garibay welcomes back marine biologist, science author, and veteran homeschooling mom Sherri Seligson to explore how faith and science go hand in hand. Sherri shares her journey from studying shark behavior at Walt Disney's Living Seas to equipping families with Biblically grounded science education. She unpacks why engaging in STEM is vital for girls—not just for career opportunities, but for deepening their faith and confidence in God's design.  From overcoming barriers in STEM to cultivating awe through nature, Sherri offers practical encouragement for parents looking to integrate faith and science in their daughters' education. Plus, she gives us a glimpse into her latest book, Wonders of the Ocean Realm, revealing how the intricacies of marine life point directly to the Creator. If you want to encourage your daughter to explore science while strengthening her faith, this episode is for you!  Learn more about Sherri's work and Wonders of the Ocean Realm at sherriseligson.com  Find an American Heritage Girls Troop near you, visit americanheritagegirls.org       Add even more Biblical wisdom to your parenting quiver, visit raisinggodlygirls.com

Our guest in this show is Sherri Seligson, author of several Apologia courses including Exploring Creation with Marine Biology and General Science, 3rd Edition. The main theme in this episode is WHY to teach science from a creation-based vantage point?

Kathryn sits down with fellow Apologia author Sherri Seligson to talk about teaching math and science together. Sherri explains how math functions as the language of science while Kathryn chimes in with ways you can use science as a context for teaching mathematics. The result is a two-for-one punch, more learning with less effort.Sherri's website: https://www.sherriseligson.com/Sherri's Instagram: @sherriseligson

Sherri Seligson joins Yvette Hampton to talk about the power of words. Our world is filled with words. Whether we are reading them, writing them, or instructing with them, they are our tools to build stories, create emotions, and make connections. Yet we need to be aware that words have the power to build up others as well as to tear them down, especially when we speak them to our children. That means words can cause our children to stumble or they can encourage them to soar! God has much to say about our words. They need to be crafted carefully and gently but firmly shared. This is how we can engage others and train up our children. Let's contemplate not only the power of our words, but how we can boldly use them. WATCH THE MOVIE!

Topics Covered: Why are words powerful? How can our words affect our children negatively? (Prov. 12:18) What about the “way” we talk to our children?

What happens when a marine biologist for Walt Disney World becomes a homeschool mom? Find out the answer to that question by joining Linda Lacour Hobar and her special guest, Sherri Seligson, one of several renowned authors for Apologia products. We'll talk kids, careers, and curriculum—and we'll be offering an awesome door prize from Sherri! 

Sherri Seligson became a Christian and a marine biologist and had a dream job with the Walt Disney company. After she got married and started having children, she decided to step away from her career and stay home with her children to care for them and educate them. We talk to Sherri about why she chose that path and how God is still using her gifting and love for nature to teach and encourage those in her sphere of influence.    Sherri Seligson Show Notes:  Win 4 tickets and airfare to Wilberforce Weekend: https://bit.ly/3m1t0XT  Wilberforce Weekend: https://wilberforceweekend.org/  Sherri Seligson Website: https://www.sherriseligson.com/  “Person of Interest: Why Jesus Still Matters in a World that Rejects the Bible” by J.

Sherri Seligson became a Christian and a marine biologist and had a dream job with the Walt Disney company. After she got married and started having children, she decided to step away from her career and stay home with her children to care for them and educate them. We talk to Sherri about why she chose that path and how God is still using her gifting and love for nature to teach and encourage those in her sphere of influence.    Sherri Seligson Show Notes:  Win 4 tickets and airfare to Wilberforce Weekend: https://bit.ly/3m1t0XT  Wilberforce Weekend: https://wilberforceweekend.org/  Sherri Seligson Website: https://www.sherriseligson.com/  “Person of Interest: Why Jesus Still Matters in a World that Rejects the Bible” by J.

Whether or not you are new to homeschooling or not, it’s quite possible that you may be wondering if you’re ruining your child. I’ve got news for you, you’re not the first homeschool mom to have those thoughts and you certainly won’t be the last! I talk to homeschool moms who have a Ph.D. and moms who dropped out of high school and every one of them struggles with this at one time or another! Today I’m going to be having a conversation with my good friend, Sherri Seligson.  We have spoken at several of the same conferences over the last few years and I’ve had the opportunity to hear her speak on this topic. I love her heart and what she has to say about this common misconception, so I wanted her to come and bring that same encouragement to you! You’ll be SO glad you listened in! (For the record, between the two of us, Sherri and I have 12 kids, over 50 years of motherhood, and over 40 years of homeschooling experience!)

A couple of years ago Sherri told me a story that breathed hope into my homeschool mom life. Today I get the extreme honor of letting you hear this same story! I’m so excited to have Sherri as a guest on the podcast today! I think this episode will remind you that even if it “seems” like your kids are behind… they really are not. Sherri shares practical ways to cheer your child on without labeling or pushing them too hard. She also reminds us that motherhood is important. Listen in you will find out that — You ARE doing a good job. Be sure to follow Sherri on all the socials @SherriSeligson, her website at www.sherriseligson.com, and YouTube also at Sherri Seligson. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/trudie-schar/message

Today’s episode is with Connie Albers and we are talking about emotional overwhelm from mom and kids. I was listening to a podcast episode from Connie that she did with Sherri Seligson and she was talking about moms and them feeling sorry for themselves, and just being overwhelmed with everything going on. And, I cried listening to it because I had legit just had a HUGE pity party. I had been grumpy and just ugh. Not a nice person to be around. So, I asked Connie if she would come onto the podcast and give me a counseling session. Thankfully, she agreed!! Here are a few things we talk about: We are living in unprecedented times. As we are recording this we are facing times of uncertainty. How can we as moms maintain the joy in our homes in a time of fear and unknown?  Our kids tend to take from us, day after day. The questions, the energy, the needs. All. Day. Long. And now, more than ever many of us are overwhelmed. Our field trips, our co-ops, camps, all of the “breaks” we tended to get from our kids have been canceled. How can we give ourselves some peace so we can maintain our sanity?  I have been a little bit guilty of feeling like I need a pity party. I have felt the disappointment in my kids, and have been disappointed and feeling lonely myself. What can you say to the mom who feels alone right now? Separated from her community physically?  How can we help our teens? Who have missed out on so many things that they were looking forward to, like proms, and camps, graduation, and getting their permit or license? Connie is just such a breath of fresh air and encouragement and I know she is going to bless you all with this episode.
