Dr. Mark Hamby, founder of Lamplighter Publishing, joins Yvette Hampton to kick off our family series with a lesson on parenting like a shepherd.

Here's what we cover with Dr. Hamby in this interview:

1. Dr. Hamby shares about his experience as a shepherd and the lessons he learned about parenting from that time.

2. How tragic death and miraculous births in his flock taught him to parent like a shepherd.

3. How can we restore our relationship with our kids even when they hate us and it seems like all hope is lost.

4. How applying lessons on humility and grace ended up saving his family, his sheep, and his health.

Steve Demme joins Yvette Hampton to talk about Family Worship in this kickoff to our Family Series. Steve and Yvette discuss the importance of spiritual mentorship and how to approach children’s ministry and youth groups as a Christian family. They also touch on how parents should model a love for the Word of God to their children and how to grow in that love if they’re not already there.

Parenting is discipleship. Our children are constantly learning from us. We are the teachers and far more is caught than taught in parenting (Yikes)! As parents, we need to fundamentally change our hearts and minds first. That simply MUST happen before any change will come for our children. Yvette Hampton and Aby Rinella are excited to talk with Israel Wayne about his new book, Raising Them Up - Parenting for Christians. He talks with us about how we can make the most out of our time as parents, effective ways to reach the hearts of our children, and he provides powerful tips on how to teach biblical concepts that our culture often contradicts.

The Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast is hosted by Yvette Hampton, Aby Rinella, Meeke Addison, Kristi Clover, and Cindy West. The podcast shares Biblical homeschooling, parenting, and family discipleship encouragement and advice. Guests include cast members from the the feature-length documentary, Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution, speakers, authors, pastors, educators, curriculum publishers, and REAL moms and dads with families and stories just like yours. Each show shares practical advice to help point our children to Christ, build a solid Biblical worldview, teach effectively, preserve our marriages, manage our homes, and approach child-rearing and discipline issues with a heart-centered focus that will result in confident, biblically-minded, wise, well-balanced adults.
