It’s Not Just Homeschooling in the Crosshairs—It’s Freedom Itself
“Well done, good and faithful servant.” Matthew 25:21

“Educational Freedom: An Eternal ROI”
The parable of the ten talents tells of a Master who entrusts His servants with resources to be invested. The story ends with the only assessment that truly matters. What are the building blocks that prepare us for that eternal assessment? Responsibility, Ownership, and Independence help us steward and leverage our resources—not for worldly gain, but for eternity. Through the example of educational freedom, we’ll examine what faithful stewardship looks like across the whole human experience.
Please come join us for this inspiring presentation - encouraging us to think generationally, act sacrificially and lead courageously – for the sake of liberty!
