Raising Kids (to be Adults) - Jonathan Brush
"And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up." ~ Galatians 6:9 (ESV)
Conventional education keeps students at their desks, actively undermines their faith in Christ, and forces most to start their life in debt. A real alternative is desperately needed.
Yvette Hampton talks with Jonathan Brush about growing our children into Christian leaders by providing the tools, community, and experiences that enable an extraordinary life of purpose.
JONATHAN BRUSH is the President and CEO of Unbound, a homeschool graduate, and a homeschool dad of six. He worked for nine years as a Director of Admissions for a private, liberal arts college, and then spent over ten years working in non-traditional higher education.
Jonathan loves Unbound and Unbound students and dreams every single day about new ways to connect them to each other. He gets to work with the world’s best team and the most amazing student body in the history of the world (which is just as awesome as it sounds), and field questions about Rule 4 violations (ask an Unbound student to explain). Jonathan and his family make their home in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia.
