Homeschooling Saints - Episode 126

  If you’re like my family, it’s the classic novels that have really satisfied our need for rewarding and uplifting reading. Author, instructor, and homeschooling mom, Eleanor Nicholson, is here to share about the richness of Victorian Novels—their delights and lessons! Find Eleanor Nicholson: www.eleanorbourgnicholson.com Eleanor’s courses for your children: https://homeschoolconnections.com/instructors/eleanor-bourg-nicholson/?sfw=pass1636051074    Eleanor's notes/reading recommendations:  G.

Homeschooling Saints - Episode 124

  Homeschoolers work very hard to raise their children to a virtuous, faith-filled adulthood, to be lights on a lampstand, and witnesses to the saving love of Christ.
