18 | From " I'm Never Having Kids" to Homeschool Mom of Three with Kristin Malphrus

On this week's episode, I'm finally answering the questions you guys left in my question box over on Instagram! There were three questions in particular that synced so well together, and allowed me to answer in a story that I'm praying encourages you as much as it did me telling it.Those questions were; -How did you go from being a feminist to a homeschool mom of three? -How did you end up homeschooling? -What values do you hope to impart while homeschooling your kids? In this episode I share my personal journey into homeschooling while reflecting on past experiences and how they've made an impact on the values I hope to pass on to my children. I discuss learning as a form of worship, and how EVERY christian is called to be an engaged life-long learner. Since God is apart of every facet of our lives, pursuing HIM leads us into life-long learning and ultimately worship. This story is one full of God's fingerprints, how His faithfulness and pursuit of me brought me out of the feminist mind-frame I had (the one that said, "I'm NEVER having kids, and I'm NEVER getting married,) and brought me to the beautiful life I now have as the home school mom of three kiddos. My prayer is that you're encouraged to embrace whatever story God has given you, and that we all will feel free from expectations and instead embrace Jesus and the story He's already written out for us. May your homes be edified and Jesus glorified. -your host Kristin Malphrus
