This past Monday, March 26, 2012, Dr. Jonathan Sarfati spoke in Winston-Salem, NC on the topic “Design, Deluge & Dilemma.”

Dr. Jonathan Sarfati is a former New Zealand national chess champion and creationist author with a PhD in chemistry. He works full-time for Creation Ministries International in Atlanta, GA. You can read a more complete bio at the Creation.com website. Some of the excellent Creation resources from Creation Ministries International that Dr. Sarfati has penned include Refuting Evolution, which now has over 400,000 copies in print, Refuting Compromise, and is the co-author of the popular Creation Answers Book.

Additionally, Dr. Sarfati serves as co-editor of the beautiful Creation magazine and also writes and reviews articles for the Journal of Creation.

These all make wonderful resources for homeschoolers seeking to teach science from a Christian worldview.

We had an opportunity to interview Dr. Sarfati before his lecture to ask him some questions pertinent to homeschoolers. Enjoy the podcast!

Do homeschooled children choose to homeschool their children? And if so, why? These are some of the questions raised (and answered!) on this the second of a two-part podcast all about 2nd-generation homeschooling. We interview Mrs. Amy Becker and Mrs. Lydia Bowman, two homeschool graduates who are now happily homeschooling their own children. They discuss with Greg about passing along the vision without pressure. Some of the reasons they decided homeschooling was the best educational method for them and their families include:

• ability to select different programs for different needs
• tailoring teaching to learning styles
• increased flexibility
• family closeness
• and more!

If you love homeschooling and want to see it continue from generation to generation, then be sure to tune in for part 2 of this 2 part podcast outlining some excellent reasons to choose home education and how to pass along that love for home education to the next generation.
