Hopefully you read yesterday’s post about our BIG ⭐ HUGE ⭐ EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT regarding the exciting changes we’re making to the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast in 2025! If you didn’t, check your inbox. We’d love to hear your thoughts.
Just since last night, we’ve received many positive responses and it seems that you, our listeners, are as excited as we are! This is how Tricia responded to our email:
“What a great idea! I know your community and other homeschoolers who find you will continue to be greatly blessed and encouraged.”
Last week on the podcast, in addition to making our Big Huge Exciting Announcement, Aby and I also took a look back at the other things the Lord has done this past year in, and through, the Schoolhouse Rocked ministry.
The Lord has continued to show that His faithful hand is at work in this ministry!
In 2024 we…
1} Launched the Thinking Dad Podcast
The first season of Thinking Dad, hosted by my husband, Garritt Hampton, was incredible and so well received! Garritt was joined by a solid lineup of godly men who brought encouragement from every angle on the important topics that today’s men deal with.
2} Designed a New Recording Studio
Since Garritt and I now record in the same studio, and because the old studio needed a face-lift, we redesigned our recording studio to accommodate both podcasts and bring in a fresh new look. We LOVE it and hope you do, too!
3} Introduced the Biblical Family Network
Because launching a brand new podcast and redesigning the studio wasn’t enough, we also introduced the new Biblical Family Network! This is a network of Christian podcasts that exist to bring you biblical encouragement to inform you, disciple you, and help you train up this next generation of Christ followers! Check out the link to see what other podcasts are part of the network.
4} Completed our Seventh Season of the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast
2024 has been a big year for the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast! In addition to posting our 850th episode this season, we also produced two excellent series, Homeschooling Every Subject and Homeschooling Through the Years. We produced two very powerful special episodes, Affordable Homeschooling and Strings Attached: The True Cost of School Choice, which has been our most popular episode ever!

As we look to the new year, we once again realize that we can’t do this ministry alone, nor are we supposed to. We are the body of Christ and together, over the past eight years, the Lord has used many of YOU to bring the Schoolhouse Rocked ministry to where it is today.
If you would like to partner with us, you can do so in a number of ways.
1} PRAY – We are always encouraged by the messages we get from those of you who pray regularly for the ministry and for our family. The Lord hears your prayers. Thank you!
2} SHARE – YOU are an important part of our Marketing Team! Did you know that most people listen to podcasts at the suggestion of others who recommend them. Please share the PODCASTS and MOVIE {free streaming} with your friends.
3} GIVE – The Lord has been so faithful to provide financially for the Schoolhouse Rocked ministry through both our listeners and our sponsors.
To be honest, we always have a difficult time asking for financial support.
If you’ve ever read about George Müller or Corrie ten Boom, some of the greatest missionaries ever to live, you know that they trusted the Lord for every provision needed for the ministry God had called them to, and never asked for support.
This is where we struggle. We believe the same. We know that the Lord will provide, as He always does, for us to continue with the ministry, however, we also know that often times when His people know of a need, they are glad to know about it and are eager to meet that need.
All financial support received will go to the following:
⭐️ Continuation of the podcasts
⭐️ Growth of the Biblical Family Network {new shows will be added as the Lord provides}
⭐️ Creation of helpful homeschooling courses to equip you to homeschool with excellence
⭐️ Hiring outside help where needed
⭐️ Form a non-profit
If the Lord puts it on your heart to financially support the Schoolhouse Rocked ministry, you can make a one-time, or monthly donation here!
Thank YOU for being a blessing to us this past year!
As always, if there’s any way we can pray for YOU or your family through this holiday season, please drop us a note. It’s truly our honor to lift you up to our Lord who hears our prayers!
Coram Deo!
