Teacher Bio: Kirsty Hammond, 15 year homeschool Mom of 3 (now) adult children. 2 Timothy 2:15 instructs us to “….study to show yourself approved…”, which is something that I have been doing for years. I dragged my children along on that journey. I stand firm on the promise in Proverb 22:6 that if we “train up a child in the way he should go, when he is old he will not depart from it”. I believe that we are called to be in relationship with each other within the community of God, and in that community we will learn, grow and flourish.
