Ed Gish January 4, 2017

Homeschooling, a popular method of education, can strengthen as well as challenge our communities. Ed explores some attitudes to avoid on the parts of homeschool families as well as school administration. In all our work, he urges, we ought to seek to serve rather than to press others to conform to our ideals.
