Edify means to teach or instruct to improve the mind and character. This podcast focuses on home edifying versus home "schooling." A lot of parents aren't homeschooling to recreate a school experience, but instead to create the best learning and discipleship pattern for their kids. Kristin is interviewing everyday parents and experts who can contribute to this topic. She believes that every parent has the potential to change the world from within the four walls of their home, including YOU! Go grab a cup of coffee, sit down, and enjoy. Welcome home friend, where learning matters.
