Are you standing at the edge of homeschooling—excited, uncertain, maybe even overwhelmed?
 
The Gentle Start is the book every new (or weary) homeschool mom needs in her hands. Written with warmth, honesty, and grace, this faith-filled guide will walk with you through the first steps of homeschooling—not as a rigid manual, but as a wise mentor and comforting friend.
 
Whether you’re just beginning or coming back after burnout, The Gentle Start will help you:
 
Clarify your family’s vision so you can homeschool with confidence, not comparison
Understand the importance of deschooling—and how to do it well
Discover the educational philosophy that fits your home and your children
Choose curriculum with peace, not pressure
Create sustainable rhythms and flexible plans for real life
Build connection, community, and a Christ-centered home culture
Face your fears with biblical truth and practical encouragement
Learn how to homeschool high school without panic
Trust that God equips those He calls—including you
 
Rooted in Scripture and real-life experience, The Gentle Start is more than a how-to. It’s a call to embrace homeschooling as a sacred opportunity to disciple your children, nurture your family, and walk in daily dependence on the Lord.
 
You don’t have to be perfect.

You just have to begin.
