Christ Over Culture: Homeschooling in a Postmodern Era – Andrea Crum, Part 1

Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution

"Parents, you can't ignore culture; it's in your kid's faces all the time. These ideas come home, and we must prepare our kids for them." ~ Andrea Crum

Watch this full interview on our YouTube Channel.

Yvette Hampton sits down with Andrea Crum to discuss her new book, 'Christ Over Culture.' They cover essential topics such as the biblical response to cultural challenges, the rise of postmodernism, biblical worldview, the role of Christian families in a secular world, and why discipleship is more crucial than ever. Andrea shares valuable tips on discipling children, understanding cultural shifts, and standing firm in faith.
