Show notes

Last week, I interviewed Joy about what she remembers as her favorite fiction titles and why she loved these particular heroines. But as she was speaking, I realized that Joy had, to a large degree, embodied the protagonists she was describing. Stories shape the imagination of what our children will become.

Educating Others, whether adults, children, women in a Bible study, a book club, whatever the venue, teaching others will change and transform you.

In today's podcast we discuss some specific ways to make these areas of exploration a reality. Where do I create these spaces? How? Will it cost me too much money? We spend time discussing how to make new, interesting, and engaging activities while mostly using what you have on hand already. What can you utilize in a new way? What art supplies can you pull out to be more accessible? Are your children ready to learn a new game?

Show notes

All of us are given a personality, a unique story to live. As parents we have the opportunity to look at the inside of our children, find the themes that make up their particular beauty, and weave that into harmony in their life. At the heart of Awaking Wonder is the idea that we are called to become the maestro of our children's lives, who conducts the symphony of their lives. I knew I wanted to have that role in each of my children's journey; but I simply never imagined that one of my children would become an actual maestro.

There are many ways to live and a variety of means to educate.
