ChildrenChildren are welcome to attend the workshops and General Sessions, though the messages are geared for a maturity level of approximately 10 and above. We do ask that you take noisy children out of the room during all Workshop and General Sessions as all sessions are recorded, and so as not to disturb others. Due to limited space in the workshop rooms, please leave strollers outside and have small children sit on parents’ laps.note: We ask that all children and youth (except for responsible young adults) not attending the Chorale remain with their parents at all times rather than attend workshops on their own. We want to encourage family-togetherness as much as possible during this conference.

2009 CHRISTIAN HERITAGE General Information

Special FeaturesSpecial MusicHomeschooled musicians will bless us with their music throughout the conference – during General Sessions as well as the friday evening concert. You will enjoy vocal selections and instrumental numbers performed on the piano and various instruments. our hope is that you will be encouraged and uplifted by their love of music and their desire to honor the Lord through this wonderful gift.

Christian heritage ChoraleThe Christian heritage Chorale was designed as an opportunity for homeschoolers of the Northwest to blend their voices to the glory of God. In the final General Session, the Chorale will be performing several selections in classical and traditional styles.

Rethinking Support Groups When is a support group not a support group? When it undermines the very things the Bible teaches about family & training your children for God’s glory. Unfortunately, the mom-led, kid-centered, activities-driven support group often does just this. Join these sessions as we explore models that more closely fit God’s design for discipling His children. open to all who are interested in these topics.

History: Teaching Truth with FictionDouglas Bond • Room D • CD # 0924fiction is one of the most memorable ways to communicate truth. Jesus told parables, short fictional stories that communicate some of the profoundest truths. Nevertheless, some families are worried about using fiction. After all, history is all about facts, isn’t it? Isn’t fiction untrue and non-fiction true? Veteran teacher and author of more than 12 published books, Douglas Bond gives practical, hands-on guidelines on using historic fiction to inspire our children to know and love history.

Let’s Start Right: The Basics of the Biblical Christian WorldviewJames Nickel • Room E • CD # 0925What is a worldview? What are the components of a worldview? What is the Biblical Christian worldview? The purpose of this session is to unveil the nature and structure of a Biblical Christian worldview, especially in terms of its presuppositional starting points (every point of view is a view from a point). In Biblical Christian education, if we do not start right, the end will be compromised because “the end is in the beginning.”

Lights, Camera, Action!Ken Carpenter • Room F • CD # 0926Homeschooling provides a ripe opportunity for students to express themselves through the medium of film and video production. This fast-paced session equips emerging filmmakers with a wealth of practical tips. Whether it’s working with actors, developing story, or production and editing techniques, this session is designed to benefit both new and experienced filmmakers who wish to get more out of their filmmaking endeavors.

Workshop C, Friday 2:45-3:45 p.m.How the Church & family are a Blessing to One AnotherScott Brown • Auditorium A • CD # 0931The home cannot be understood apart from the church, for the home is a discipleship community that mirrors many functions of the church. Nor can the church be understood apart from the home, for the church is a household. In this message, Scott Brown lists fifteen ways the family is a nursery for the church. The home is designed to be a nursery of the church, for it fills the church with people who have been affected by the beauty created there. There is a complementary pattern for family and church life. The biblical architecture of the church of God brings families together and every aspect of the design is meant to declare the glory of God from one generation to the next.

Before You Launch Your Business: The 50 Most Important Things You Need to Know About Your VentureWade Myers • Auditorium B • CD # 0932This session takes you through the fifty most important business evaluation criteria and describes how you can quickly size up any business idea.

Heroes: Inspiring Servant Greatness in the Next GenerationDouglas Bond • Auditorium C • CD # 0933“Any nation that does not honor heroes,” said Abraham Lincoln, “will not long endure.” But ours has become a culture that redefines heroism, debunking the worthiest servant leaders of the past in favor of throw-away icons of popular culture. Young people will always seek after heroes, but we must beware: they may be the wrong ones. History is punctuated by sterling examples of true heroes, worthy of adulation and emulation. In this seminar author and teacher Douglas Bond explores the essential and inspiring role of valiant heroes from Church history in a well-ordered curriculum.

Choosing the Best Curriculum for Your FamilyTodd & Terri Johnson • Room D • CD # 0934We are blessed with so many choices in this day and age, and yet, this very blessing can make it very difficult to determine which curriculum will be the best fit for our families. We’ll discuss learning styles, educational philosophies and what’s out there so that you can make the best and most informed decisions possible.

Washington Homeschool Law Simply ExplainedScott & DiAnna Brannan • Room E • CD # 0935Want to be informed/updated on the homeschool law? Want to know what happened in the 09 Legislative Session? This workshop covers the basics of the homeschool law and answers many of the questions that come up to new or seasoned homeschoolers. DiAnna will attempt to cover the most common questions and give you the answers you need. The best way to protect our freedoms is to know our rights under the law!

How Can I Teach Art When I Can’t Draw a Straight Line?Nancy Anderson • Room F • CD # 0936Whether you have experience in art or not, figuring out which books, resources, and tools are the best investment is a daunting task. So you buy things that don’t work for you or skip art altogether. Instead – get help! Come talk to an artist, teacher, and past homeschool mother. See lots of books, look at art tools, get ideas, discuss options, take home a list of art resources (with descriptions, cautions, age appropriateness, personal reviews) – and get some questions answered. Workshop suited for all ages.

Homeschooling and Autism, Sensory Dysfunction, & Other Special NeedsCyndi Ringoen • Room G • CD # 0937When Christian parents are confronted with a special needs child it often challenges their homeschooling convictions.

Hands-on workshop plus take-home resource list provided.

Slow Learner to Super Student: Yes, There is Hope!Cyndi Ringoen • Room G • CD # 0947When a child is learning slowly for no apparent reason – the reason usually is a unique mixture of weakness in the various pathways needed for taking in, retaining, and using information.

Parents will also be given information on activities to do at home to begin to build the correct pathways to accelerate learning and development.

Workshop E, Saturday 12:45-1:45 p.m. Biblical Manhood: What He Must Be to Marry My DaughterVoddie Baucham • Auditorium A • CD # 0951All Christian parents want their daughters to marry godly young men.

Why Teach Poetry in a Post-Poetry World?Douglas Bond • Room G • CD # 0957for centuries poetry has been the center of literary and language studies in the Western World. But today most high school students, especially young men, think poetry is for sissies and would rather study and write anything but poetry. Author and veteran teacher, Douglas Bond offers many practical ways for teaching our young people to understand, appreciate, and write poetry, and how poetry, “the push-ups of prose,” can lead to excellent writing in all genres.

Workshop F, Saturday 2:15-3:15 p.m.Unified Fathers & Sons Reflecting the Glory of GodScott Brown • Auditorium A • CD # 0961The pattern for earthly fathers and sons is made in heaven.

Support Group Session # 2 Important Issues Facing Today’s Support Groups—and Some Ways to Address ThemPanel Discussion • Room D • CD # 0964most support groups face challenging issues that can distract them from their mission or disrupt the group entirely.

Unlock Your Child’s Learning Potential with Brain DevelopmentCyndi Ringoen • Room G • CD # 0967As God created the universe in an orderly fashion so He has created each human being to develop in an orderly fashion. When events occur that interfere with, block, or alter normal development the end result is often learning difficulties.

This session will focus on learning the important sequential developmental steps needed for superior functioning and what to do if your child has missed any of these steps.

Father & Son retreatAugust 27-29, 2009 Ghormley Meadow Christian Camp, Rimrock, WA

2009 CHRISTIAN HERITAGE Father & Son Event

uch of today’s culture pulls men away from their families. While this is a detriment to the entire family, it especially impacts raising godly sons. men are to be leaders, and as sons become leaders, the most influential person in that process is their father. This retreat is a time where fathers can “step back

from it all” to refocus and spend a few special days with their sons. Not only will each be challenged from the Word of God, but there will also be opportunities to grow in relationships while hiking, swimming, and enjoying other activities in the beauty of the Cascade mountains.
