Register NOW for Upcoming Regional Worldview Academy Christianity & Culture Conference
Are you seeking to raise your kids to know the truth of the gospel of Jesus and to ache to share the hope of that gospel with the lost souls around them?  Are you seeking to raise servant leaders who move towards need and not comfort?  If so, please consider attending the upcoming Worldview Academy Christianity and Culture Conference - "Bold Christianity in an Anything Goes Culture" - April 5 & 6th in Rocklin @ Creekside Church.
My name is Beth Boyum and my husband and I have four kids, ages 22, 19, 17, and 14.  We have been homeschooling from the beginning and have been involved with the ministry of Worldview Academy (WVA) for the past 9 years. We have sent our kids to their summer camps yearly and our girls have served as staff/interns. My husband and I are deeply grateful for their ministry to teens and their impact for the glory of God not just in the lives of our kids, but thousands upon thousands of teens nationwide. Their Christ-exalting faculty and staff have consistently modeled what it means to be a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ and how to live that out in the every day. They have taught our kids how to answer their own hard questions about their faith and equally importantly how to extend the truth of the gospel of Christ in genuine love to others.  We are so excited to get to share this ministry with you at the upcoming conference:

Rocklin, One-day Homeschool Classical Christian Ed. Conference, 3/2

One-day Classical Christian Education homeschool conference coming up March 2nd in Rocklin, CA. Special speaker Marc Jamie Hays from Tennessee! 
About the conference: This one day homeschool event will include encouragement and practical tips on homeschooling the younger years through high school. Classical Christian education can seem daunting, but the history of it is amazing and can transform your child's education today! Learn how every parent can make their homeschool experience rewarding and extraordinary. Come away refreshed and encouraged! 
About the speaker: Marc Hays is an experienced homeschool classical educator and lead curriculum director for Classical Conversations.  He has been married to Jamie for 18 years. They have 6 children: a single, a double, and a triple. Yep, that’s right—triplets and twins. They have been home educating since 1999 and a part of Classical Conversations since 2010. Marc serves as the Leader Curriculum Developer for Classical Conversations Multimedia. He also directs a High School Challenge I program in middle Tennessee. Marc enjoys his morning rituals of drinking coffee, reading books, and peeking in on the kids while they sleep. His favorite coffee is Costa Rican; his favorite author is C. S. Lewis; and his favorite kids are currently six in number. His lifetime aspirations are subsumed under one prayer: “Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.” A secondary goal is to be his great-grandchildren’s Challenge director. He is confident that the primary goal will come to pass. He hopes he is blessed with the secondary one as well."

Apologetics Club: Doubt & Certainty 2/15 Bridgeway Church

Bridgeway Christian Church Homeschool Support Group invites your teen to join us! (You do not need to be a member of our homeschool support group.)
We learned so much last year in our Apologetics Club! We are continuing to offer a once per month event that will help your student hear answers to questions they may be thinking about. My goal for my own kids is that they develop a Biblical worldview. I pray that their faith is challenged and they have opportunities to ask questions while they are still under my roof.

Each event will be on a Friday afternoon, but we do not have a set Friday each month as it’s dependent upon speaker availability. 


DATE: Friday, February 15th
TIME: 2:00-4:00pm 
Bridgeway Christian Church: Upstairs in Classroom 1

TOPIC:  Is it okay to have doubts about Christianity? What is the role of doubts in faith? How do I know this is all true? How much trust do we put in human intelligence and how much place do we leave for mystery? Is faith at odds with reason?   

Is your teen asking any of the above questions? Do they feel shame when they have doubts? Do they have a safe place to ask questions? This is the place to tackle some of these questions!

Speaker: Pastor Matt Bach
Matt Bach is the Director of Christian Development at Bridgeway. He was the Pastor of High School Ministries at Bridgeway from 2011-2017 and has a passion for connecting with youth. He holds an M.A. in Theology from Fuller Theological Seminary, and a B.A. in Theology (Old Testament emphasis) from Briercrest Bible College. Matt is also an adjunct faculty member at William Jessup University. In his free time Matt loves reading, spending time at home with his family, and leading tours of Israel with GTI Tours.

COST: $5/student (parents are free)

WHO CAN ATTEND: ONLY students 6th grade and up. Parents are also encouraged to stay if you do not have younger students. If you do have younger siblings, feel free to drop your older students off. Do to the sensitive nature of some topics that will be discussed at this event or future Apologetics events, we are requesting that only 6th grade and older students attend. 

HOW TO RSVP: Contact Brenda Johnston with the total number in your party: johnstonhouse@gmail.com

HOW TO PAY: You may pay the day of the event in exact cash only. However, we ask that if you sign up, you commit to coming, so please check your schedules. We are paying a speaker fee and need to have accurate numbers of attendees for handouts.

We are excited about this opportunity for growth and hope you can attend! Let me know if you have questions.
