L.E.D. is primarily a Christian philosophy of education based on Biblical principles. The first step on the path to L.E.D. is to renew your own mind, evaluating your thoughts on every aspect of education in comparison to what the Word of God says about it. We have several resources to help you get started, beginning with our complete Freedom & Simplicity™ of Lifestyle Education through Discipleship™ - The Seminar. Eventually we plan to have this available also in book form. Other workshops are also available.
 The Seminar |
You want to home educate for the Glory of God, but those glorious plans and real life don't always mesh. Curriculum doesn't deliver what it promised. Children don't look the same at the table as they did in your home ed dreams. And you get caught in that unending whirlwind of trying out everything to try to get the "right" way. God has a better plan! He and His Word are at the center of it and your family can work together to achieve it. Lisa shares her heart on finding the right starting point to get you headed in the right direction. Sessions from a live seminar cover the philosophy, principles, and practical application of Lifestyle Education through Discipleship™, where we're seeking Biblical Wisdom through Universal Principles with Unique Applications™. It's almost like being right here - but you can leave your p.j.'s on! You get the mp3 audios, pdf handouts, and powerpoint presentations. 2 different editions available!

Hi Lisa, I got your I guess "older" [2005] now seminar:) a couple of weeks ago and was wondering if the 2007 one is very much different? Your "Old" one is soooo wonderful and I am so excited and just so new to all this. I am just trying to get information in ... and now am wondering if you have NEW information you are passing on. I just LOVE the way you teach and your heart ....I just can not tell you the breath of fresh air God has given me through you I was so overwhelmed by PA till I saw that you had 10 kids and were doing this. [follow up] This was excellent!! It helped clarify some things and reinforce others for me ...I love the scripture references...my heart bore witness to all of them!! Thanks Lisa. D.R. Lisa, I love this! I encourage you all to make time to listen. And the power point and handouts are terrific. Thanks for sharing this with us. A.H. I agree! I just finished listening and this is excellent- I can't

I purchased Lisa's HisStory guide and was actually blessed with a few days to read through it all. I just want to encourage anyone who might be struggling with understanding PA and how to implement it to consider purchasing this wonderful resource. Lisa has such a gift of words and PA (with the emphasis on HisStory) is all succinctly explained in her guide. This is what you get: It is a complete "how to teach history" guide which includes an explanation of the principles (though renamed and better explained, IMO), the CoC (renamed as the PIPEline, some events renamed, some added links, and, again, all better explained), plus the whole how-to of laying the foundations straight thru the presentation of the details of HisStory. She also includes some booklists. It is appropriately titled Freedom & Simplicity because you really feel that coming across in her guide, but yet there is enough guidance there to be helpful. I feel like I've been staring at all the puzzle pieces for 2 years with no idea how to put all the pieces together. This guide does that for me. Thank you so much Lisa for taking the time to put all this on paper to bless others. K.B. I know we have all benefited greatly from Lisa H.'s gift of being able to simplify things in our discussion. I purchased her updated guide yesterday afternoon and received it by download. I'm not done with your book yet...It is so much to ingest and digest...each topic is 'heavy' with meaning and they seem to keep unfolding inside of me as I take the time to just mull it over. I'm onto where you talk about putting in the furnishings...the application of planning history lessons but I keep going over the methodology section and I get a little more each time I go thru it..so I'm savoring it and it is delicious ..because of the Spirit of Christ in the foundation, methodology and application of what u write about...God in all and thru all!!! But then again the bible does tell us to GET OUR OWN TASTE OF GOD AND SEE IF WE FIND THAT HE IS GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! D.R. I just can't say enough about this amazing guide. I have been trying to learn the PA for some time and drop in on this group often only to feel overwhelmed! Last Thursday I read the note about this and decided I'd give it a try, I spent most of last weekend devouring it and I am so grateful for the applicable information. I have homeschooled for 12 years and the Lord has been pulling me to this [PA] approach for most of them, I have fought Him due to having 7 children from 17 to 9 weeks and just didn't feel I had the time to invest. My hope is to encourage other moms that are feeling this way to keep going, don't give up, and get this guide it really is freeing and simple ......I can finally say "I get it!" Thank you Lisa, the Lord has used you to write this guide for those of us that needed a different angle. T.B. Lisa, I am loving what I am reading!!!!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this out for us and invest in other families!!!! [follow up] Hi Lisa, I have finished the Freedom and Simplicity in HisStory. It is wonderful. I have such an hope for our school in general, not just History, from reading this, and a real big change in our way of doing HisStory. I would like to order your e-book Sorting it Out and Pulling it Together also. C.W. I have read your Freedom and Simplicity in HisStory and it is wonderful! I'm so excited. And, now I am just dying to put it on a Learning Map so I can get a good overview of how it all fits together. I was so glad I printed out your guide before I left Lisa. I was able to get thru all but the very last book recommendations. All I can say is WOW! I would HIGHLY recommend Lisa's "Freedom and Simplicity in HisStory" and the timeline you can purchase to go along w/it. So easy to understand and actually implement. If I remember right, it is $15-20. One of my best investments yet! L.P. Hi Lisa, The HisStory guide is SO helpful!! Thank you for all of your hard work. Hi Lisa, I ordered your Freedom & Simplicity w/ the PIPEline a week or so ago. Although a lot of it I have read or heard before, something was different this time. I had several "a ha" moments and understood things I never did before. I am so very thankful. L.G. Thanks, Lisa. They are awesome. Going through them now. Should have gotten them earlier. Thanks for your ministry. M.G. Hi Lisa, K. recently showed me her copy of Freedom & Simplicity in HiStory, and I just have to have a copy:) What a wonderful PA resource I would also like to order a copy of the PIPEline of HisStory. M.F. Hi Lisa, I am truly pleased by F & S [HisStory] and so I am now ordering: Sorting it Out, and Pulling it Together. God Bless you for helping make these practical resources to help me train my children for Him. P I have really enjoyed your Freedom & Simplicity in HisStory book and wondered more about your Sorting it Out-Pulling it together book. S.T. Hi Lisa, I am just enjoying reading your History ebook. It's great! C.V.
