Homeschool Summit Encore now on!

Tuesday, October 22nd, 2019

From the Homeschool Summit:

“We are delighted to welcome you to a Homeschool Summits encore!

“We were so grateful to host the Homeschool Family Relationships Summit last week as over 23,000 families were encouraged by the Word of God to communicate with truth and grace, strengthen our families’ unity even through conflict, and lead our families to become a world-changing force for the kingdom of God in the power of His Spirit.

“We hoped to reach as many families as we could with this great content — all part of our vision to share resources and encouragement with Christian families so they are equipped to pass on the faith to the next generation.

“We wanted to extend the opportunity for families to learn and benefit from the Family Relationships Summit free content, so we decided to open up the entire free event for two more days! While it’s still only available for a limited time (the event closes down on Tuesday night at midnight CST), we hope the additional time will give you the chance to watch a few more of the sessions you were hoping to catch AND share about the event with your friends so they can be equipped and encouraged, too.”

Kevin Swanson speaker at the Family conferences Christchuch 1 & 2 and Auckland 3 & 4

Saturday, May 25th, 2013

These conferences are 4 different events with the main conferences being on 1 June in Christchurch and 3 June in Auckland.

Auckland and Christchurch “Building a God-Centered Family” conferences happening on the 1st and 3rd of June (https://ncfic.org/events/view/building-a-god-centered-family-melbourne-tour).

More on one of the speakers:  Kevin Swanson

Kevin SwansonKevin Swanson

This is part of a conference tour covering two locations in New Zealand and three in Australia, featuring three speakers from the US well-known for their passionate vision for Christian family life as informed by the Scriptures. One of the speakers, Kevin Swanson, is a well-regarded radio host and the director of Generations with Vision, a program which comments on culture, family life, and child-rearing. The program reaches tens of thousands of listeners in over 100 countries. https://generationswithvision.com/about/meet-our-director/

Recently, Mr Swanson’s state of Colorado has been debating a same-sex redefinition of marriage. This occurs just weeks after New Zealand redefined marriage, and as Australia considers its own redefinition of marriage. Although this is a topic which legislatures across the world have only been discussing for the last few years, Mr Swanson believes the battle was already being fought in classrooms two generations ago.

“What in the world happened to Western civilisation?” asks Mr Swanson. “Why are 80-97% of children raised in Christian homes walking away from the faith in this generation? In case you’ve missed it, we are in a gigantic war of the worldviews and Christians are losing in Western world.”

Recently, while writing his book Apostate Mr Swanson did research into the lives, ideas, roots, and fruits of the great men who made the modern world what it is. “I knew the battle was intellectual. It is just that I didn’t fully realize the spiritual element of it. On the one hand, it is a story of demonic possession, insanity, suicide, mass-murder, adultery, homosexuality, cultural and social revolutions, and unbridled, maniacal apostasy. It is the story of apostasy on a massive scale. But it is also a story of hope and victory for the last men standing in the ashes of Western civilization. It will be a testimony to the inevitable triumph of Jesus Christ over the great men of renown who picked the wrong fight in the history of the West.”

Mr Swanson believes that the foundations for the dissolution and redefinition of the modern family in 21st-century Colorado, Australia, and yes–New Zealand–ultimately have their roots in the ideas and worldviews preached by anti-Christian intellectuals decades ago in philosophy departments and classrooms. But Mr Swanson says there is reason for Christians to hope.

Media Release –Christian Family Conference Tour Coming in June

Saturday, May 25th, 2013

http://hef.org.nz/2013/media-release-christian-family-conference-tour-coming-in-june/

May 23, 2013

Three well-regarded US speakers will be travelling to New Zealand and Australia this June on a pioneer conference tour aimed at encouraging Scriptural family living.

The speakers will include Scott Brown, of the National Center for Family-Integrated Churches, which is running the conferences. Mr Brown may be best known as the producer of controversial hit documentary “Divided”, which calls Churches to recover a vision for family discipleship and worship, rather than splitting their congregations into age-segregated programs. He gives most of his time to local pastoral ministry, conferences on fatherhood, Church reformation, and strengthening the family.

Kevin Swanson, home educated in the 1960s and 1970s, now hosts Generations Radio, a daily programme broadcast around the world. Mr Swanson is a well-known speaker and teacher on worldview, education, and Church and family life who has been interviewed on hundreds of media outlets including Dr James Dobson’s Focus on the Family and Fox News Network.

Anthony Courter has been discipling men and fathers from his home for decades, specifically focusing on family-based entrepreneurship and ministry.

The men will be speaking in Auckland and Christchurch in New Zealand, as well as three venues in Australia. The conferences are one-day events, with men’s meetings and fellowship/discipleship opportunities occurring on other days.

Robert Compton, who is organising the Melbourne conference, says that the tour is an exciting opportunity for New Zealanders and Australians to interact with American leaders and get to know likeminded families in their own areas.

“In recent years, we’ve seen some very exciting things happening in the States,” says Mr Compton.

“Families have started searching God’s Word for principles regarding His will for family roles, discipleship in the home, and family economics. They have begun to apply these principles in their own families and God has blessed them.”

Mr Compton says that this is nothing new for Christian families. “The family unit has been under attack since the beginning of time, yet throughout history there have been men who have searched the scriptures to find the answers to these very questions. Abraham was commended for teaching his children. Timothy learnt about God from his mother and grandmother. During the killing times in Scotland, the Covenanters still applied principles they found in God’s Word to their family even at the cost of their life. Sadly, in more recent times the Church has forgotten that families are the basic unit of society.”

Mr Compton encourages Christian families from all walks of life to attend the conferences. “What an opportunity to get three men at the forefront of today’s battle for the family to come to New Zealand and Australia and share their knowledge. It will be encouraging to those who have already begun their journey and challenging to those who are only starting.”

More information on the conferences can be found at www.godcenteredfamily.com.

About the “National Center for Family Integrated Churches

Scripture makes it clear that parents are primarily responsible for the discipleship of their children.

At the National Center for Family-Integrated Churches, one of our missions is to communicate God’s beautiful design for discipleship in the home and in the Church. We hope to use scripture to show God’s wonderful design for building harmony between Churches and families, not dislocation.”

Speakers

Scott T. BrownScott T. Brown

Scott T. Brown is the director of the National Center for Family-Integrated Churches and elder at Hope Baptist Church in Wake Forest, North Carolina. Scott graduated from California State University in Fullerton with a degree in History and received a Master of Divinity degree from Talbot School of Theology. He gives most of his time to local pastoral ministry, conferences on fatherhood, church reformation, and strengthening the family. He has been married to Deborah for thirty one years, and they have four grown children. Scott also helps people think through the two greatest institutions God has provided — the church and the family.

Kevin SwansonKevin Swanson

Kevin Swanson was homeschooled in the 1960’s and 1970’s, Kevin has over 35 years of experience in the homeschooling movement and serves as the Executive Director of Christian Home Educators of Colorado and Generations with Vision. Today, Kevin is a homeschool father of five, host of a daily radio program broadcast around the world, and is a published author of several books, including Upgrade – 10 Secrets to the Best Education for Your Child. Serving as a passionate supporter of home education, he has been interviewed on hundreds of media outlets, including Dr. James’ Dobson’s Focus on the Family and the Fox News Network.

Anthony CourterAnthony Courter

Anthony Courter graduated from Bible college in ’87 with a pastoral degree. While pastoring his first church he began to see issues concerning youth ministry and fathers abdicating their God given responsibilities.  This insight caused him to become deliberately focused on discipling fathers, specifically concentrating on and encouraging family economics and family centered ministries.
For years, the Courter home has been the backdrop for teaching men and families about economic issues such as What is Money?, Why have Passive Income, and How to have Family Based Businesses. In 2004 he founded CAMP (Carpenters Aiding Missionary Projects) in an effort to help foster within men and their families a desire for world missions and to aid missions projects around the world.
Anthony and Michelle, his wife of 27 years, are the parents of 12 children ages 24 to 18 months – Daniel, Jessica, Rebekah, Aaron, Josiah, Esther, Joshua, Caleb, Lincoln, Elijah, Anna and Nathan. In addition to running CAMP, hosting monthly skill building workshops, and meeting local and international church needs, they are the owner and manufacturers of Solar Pathfinder.

INFO: https://ncfic.org/events/view/building-a-god-centered-family-auckland-tour?tab=scheduleOn this tour, we will focus our teaching on matters of church and family life.

This conference series is designed to deliver that vision of hope by explaining from the scriptures and how family life is designed to operate in the midst of church life and economic life.  These issues of church and family begin with understanding that scripture is sufficient for all things – including church, family and economic life.

International Home Schoolers’ Leadership Conference September 2011

Tuesday, July 19th, 2011

Dear Friends,

A very remarkable opportunity has come our way to further slow the advance of totalitarianism. The battle for retaining Section 59 in New Zealand did not go well. It seemed to me that most of New Zealand woke up to the reality of it way too late. In other countries the state actually prevents parents from more than smacking…parents cannot even choose the kind of education they give to their own children. That’s what this conference is Spain is all about The time frame is pretty tight and consequently, a bit of financial assistance to the Home Education Foundation is needed to make it happen. See what you think about it at this link: International Home Schoolers’ Leadership Conference

Prolife NZ Tour 2011 – Creating a Prolife NZ

Monday, January 10th, 2011

Prolife NZ Tour 2011 – Creating a Prolife NZ

The 2011 Prolife NZ tour aims to throw light on the issue of abortion here in New Zealand. Over 18,000 abortions take place each year. Their goal is to increase people’s awareness about abortion, and to train the next generation of pro-lifers to speak out on this social injustice :)

This year they are delighted to introduce two incredible high profile pro-life leaders from the States…

Bryan Kemper runs a thought-provoking blog aimed primarily at youth atBryanKemper.com.

He is the founder of StandTrue Pro-Life and the Pro-Life Day of Silent Solidarity.

Bryan has spent years reaching out to youth and encouraging this generation to get involved, and now he has endeavored to continue that outreach with Stand True Ministries.

Stand True is an organization that asks of young people, “Will you stand?”

Bryan has certainly chosen to, and he can only hope and pray that others will too.

Jill Stanek blogs at JillStanek.com, a must-read for all pro-lifers.

Jill has previously worked as a registered nurse in the Labour & Delivery Department at Christ Hospital in Oak Lawn, Illinois. She discovered not only were abortions being committed there, but babies were being aborted alive, and left to die without medical care.
When hospital leaders said that they would not stop, Jill went public and has become a national figure in the effort to protect both born and pre-born infants.

Jill has been quoted in the national media on television, on radio, in print, and by local and national legislators.

Jill is awesome. You’ll love her!
