Classical Conversations
Classical Conversations supports homeschooling parents by cultivating the love of learning through a Christian worldview in fellowship with other families. We believe there are three keys to a great education: classical, Christian, and Community. The classical model divides the learning process into three stages: grammar, dialectic, and rhetoric. In the grammar stage, children devour facts. In the dialectic stage, children ask many questions,sort and evaluate these facts. In the rhetoric stage, teenagers synthesize their knowledge and apply it. From beginning to end, the Classical Conversations curriculum is founded on the Bible as the inerrant Word of God. Classical Conversations plants and supports local communities who meet once a week. Being part of a like-minded and committed community provides parents and students encouragement, fellowship, and accountability.

High Speed Luke
High Speed Luke (HSL) is a multimedia, free educational resource for kids (or anyone) to get to know the Bible in fun and engaging ways.

Background/Context in the onboarding video:
HSL started in 2006 with the mission to educate, defend and inspire youth on the Bible’s Truth. Why is this relevant today? Because kids experience and see the world during challenging times and ask us big questions (pause) some with answers outside of what we humans are able to provide. Whether for home or virtual schooling, personal growth, or deepening your relationship with God, HSL is fast, entertaining, and relevant for kids and adults.
