Welcome to Home Shalom!

Welcome to Home Shalom and Shalom Farm. We pray your visit here be blessed. We are learning to walk in the Ways (Torah) of our Father YHWH and follow Y'shua, His Messiah until He returns to "set things straight". We call it a "Messi-Life". Our walk is neither tidy nor perfect, but it is filled with passion, devotion and desire to serve our King. We are learning to be humble servants, and to be good stewards of the things that He has entrusted to us: His Word, our marriage, our children, our family, our community, our health, and our farm. Hitch your horse and stay a while--our door is always open!

Homeschooling for Eternity, Skeet Savage

Book Review ***** 5 Stars

This was a wonderful book! I highly recommend it. It is a valuable reminder of why we do what we do (homeschooling for the glory of God). It is rich in Scripture and vision for all families, no matter where youa re in the process. It is packed with wisdom and encouragement. It is sound in Biblical Instruction, not docterines of man.

Skeet is a very real. I saw her speak locally, and I was touched. Her testimony is mind blowing. I was intimidated with her head covering and ultra modest dress, as I sat in an unknown church surrounded by Amish and Mennonites in Lancaster County, PA. (My experience with plain people is that they can be very closed communities that make you feel like an outsider if they don't have a specific reason to communicate with you.) That was still the case with the audiance. :-( However, Skeet and the people traveling with her were very kind and "real". Skeet is far from "plain". She has put her life and the life of her children in God's hands, trusting Him with everything. Her life is a fine testimoney to His goodness.

Anyway, the book has moved up to my top 2 referral for new homeschooling moms or those struggling with vision, or those who just like to be reminded every now and then. :-)
