Ponder the Path

Getting Started on the Journey of L.E.D.

Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. ~ Proverbs 4:26

Are you ready to begin to dig in and Renew? This short article will guide you through the steps and resources to get you started on this L.E.D. Journey!

Did you read In the Beginning... ? It will help you prepare for this Journey, by giving you things you can be doing with your children while you are renewing your mind and internalizing the ways of L.E.D.

Re-read our chosen Scripture for this teaching. Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. That is a key to understanding L.E.D. Pondering, ruminating, renewing is at the foundation of what L.E.D. is. The Path - this is truly a Journey. We never arrive at Wisdom, but we grow in Wisdom along the way. We seek for our ways to be established in His Word, the solid Rock, our foundation.

To begin studying Lifestyle Education through Discipleship you will follow the same pattern you'll follow for each of your "subject" studies.

Begin by laying the Foundation, getting a Big Picture overview of what L.E.D. is. Take a look at the "puzzle box top" - you know, where you look at the whole completed picture before you begin piecing it together.  Freedom & Simplicity™ of Lifestyle Education through Discipleship™ - The Seminar is your best resource for seeing this Big Picture of L.E.D. It will give you an overview from principles to practical application of teaching and learning for Biblical Wisdom by reasoning through every topic to biblical principles.

Once you see the Big Picture, begin building the Framework. You will start building the frame of this puzzle, one piece at a time, connecting the pieces together. Learning the study method is a great place to begin. You'll find bits and pieces on this throughout the L.E.D. section of our website, but our comprehensive Learning Guide to this is not quite finished. Watch for R Road to Biblical Wisdom - coming soon; your prayers are appreciated!  It will be an extremely helpful Learning Guide to you as you learn to think and apply this biblical method of education. In the meantime, the method is presented in Freedom & Simplicity™ in HisStory. You will get a pretty good understanding of it through internalizing what you read there.

Next, begin filling in the inside of  the puzzle, adding the Furnishings. This is done by beginning to look at the areas of study themselves, applying the philosophy and methodology of L.E.D. that you have learned through The Seminar and R Road. Bible is of course our first area to dig into. Freedom & Simplicity™ in Bible (when it is finished) will walk you through how to teach and learn the Bible. Next we recommend HisStory. These 2 will cover much of your studies. Add the other Pillars of Wisdom as you are able, clear down to such primary skills as Handwriting. Yes, we have a Learning Guide for teaching Freedom & Simplicity™ in Handwriting, from a biblically principled perspective.

But you don't need to wait for an L.E.D. Learning Guide for each area you want to teach, to hold your hand and walk you through the study. They will do that, but you can step out on your own. Once you've got the idea down from Freedom & Simplicity™ in HisStory you have the tools you need to branch out and do your own studies.

Enjoy the Journey!
