Last summer my daughter, heard about a camp called Worldview Academy while listening with me to the Heidi St. John podcast. She and I both immediately felt that this camp would be perfect for her and she begin working in various capacities to pay for her tuition. That camp changed her life. I do not say that lightly. I dropped off a teenage girl and picked up a young lady who was even stronger in her faith than she was before.
Because of this change that I saw in my daughter, I reached out to Worldview to see if they would chat with me about raising teens in a time where the Christian culture is highly under attack. Today, I am chatting with Michael DeGroat about the following things:
Our culture, and what it is like raising Christian teens in today’s times. What are some things you are seeing facing our teens? As homeschool parents, what can we do to prepare our teens for this spiritually declining climate? We have been told by Christian leaders in our community that the best place for our kids is in public schools so they can be the salt and the light. How would you respond to this? What are some ways that homeschoolers and teens today can be the salt and the light in their communities? How can Worldview help prepare our teens to be leaders in a culture that seems to be against Christianity right now?At the time of this recording, Worldview was still planning on having camps.
