Quiverfull on NPR? Yup! (HT: StandFirm)
But I must say there is a quote that really disturbed me: “‘We’ll be able to take over both halls of Congress, we’ll be able to reclaim sinful cities like San Francisco for the faithful, and we’ll be able to wage very effective massive boycotts against companies that are going [...]

5 tips for a successful VBS
Posted in Anglican Family on August 2, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
After a week of early rushed mornings, days filled with paint/glitter/clay/ giggling/running/singing, and tired, hobbled-together dinners, VBS (or VBC – Vacation Bible Camp as it was re-christened this week) is OVER.
**Satisfied, tired SIGH**
I’ve not always been a huge proponent of VBS (I’m not necessarily, still). There are issues of expense, laying more work on already [...]

For my Anglican friends – I’m sure you’ve been following GAFCON, but if not, here’s the final statement from the bishops meeting in Jerusalem. I’ve not read it yet, but the word on the ‘net is that it is strong and committed to the long-haul solution rather than a “quick” split.
Family Bible Study Curriculum

As a homeschooler, wouldn’t you love to find a curriculum that allowed your entire family to study the Bible together?
About two weeks ago, I got an email asking about an Anglican curriculum for homeschool. To my knowledge there isn’t something like that, but I think until somebody comes up with that, we can make do [...]
Teaching kids about Anglicanism
Posted in Anglican Family on May 25, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I had an email from a nice lady this weekend asking about a curriculum for Anglican homeschoolers, specifically a curriculum to teach about our faith. Well, unfortunately, other than Sunday School curricula (which aren’t a bad solution), there really isn’t anything like that geared toward home education. However, there are some good books which you [...]
I need your advice…kids and church

What do you do when your children don’t want to go to church?
Our church is in transition and we are having to worship on Sunday afternoons (4-6). This isn’t the best time of day for kids…they are tired and cranky and hungry. I don’t blame them for not wanting to go somewhere this time of [...]
Virginia court rules in favor of parishioners!

Good news for Virginia’s orthodox Episcopal churches. Congratulations VA! I’m happy to know that some of the most historic and lovely churches (many I grew up around) will still remain in the hands of their own parishioners.
Why am I an Anglican?
Posted in Anglican News on March 14, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Why would someone want to be an Anglican? Our family has left the Episcopal church, but we are still Anglican. Why? What is the draw for some 77 million people around the globe? What makes Anglicanism distinct from other branches of Christianity and Protestantism?
Check out Christ Church, NYC’s website for [...]
Something fun for your kids!

This is our Youth Pastor – he’s GREAT! He made this video to use with my son’s middle school youth group. The followed the video up with a relay race: putting the cards (which you’ll see in the video) in the correct place (Old Testament/New Testament) and the correct order.
The theme of this is “Indiana [...]
For Whom the Bell Tolls…

Et tu? has linked to an interesting (and short) essay on domestic life as monasticism. More specifically, how the mother-at-home of young children lives a life quite similar to a monastic. (I would add that this is even more so for homeschooling mothers whose years at home with children continue on for many [...]
