Embracing Homeschooling as a Path of Discipleship
With Guest Cherelle German from Embrace Homeschool
In today’s fast-paced world, where education is often driven by deadlines and performance, homeschooling offers a countercultural path—one that blends academic instruction with spiritual formation. Imagine a home where learning doesn’t just feed the mind, but also nourishes the heart and soul. This is the essence of embracing homeschooling as a path of discipleship.
In our latest episode of the Raising Rices podcast, I’m joined by Cherelle German of Embrace Homeschool, a devoted wife, mother, and advocate for Christ-centered education. Cherelle shares her personal journey and practical wisdom on how homeschooling can become a joyful, faith-filled lifestyle of intentional discipleship.
Creating a Peaceful and Joyful Home
At the heart of homeschooling is the beautiful opportunity to cultivate a home where peace and joy flourish. With Christ at the center, the home becomes more than just a classroom—it becomes a sanctuary. As Cherelle explains, “Our home is not just a place of learning; it’s a sanctuary of peace and joy where our children thrive.” By inviting the Holy Spirit into our daily routines and rhythms, we create an atmosphere where our children feel safe, loved, and inspired.
Faith-Centered Learning
One of the greatest blessings of homeschooling is the ability to weave faith naturally into every aspect of education. From Bible studies and memory verses to discussions on worldview, virtue, and service, learning becomes a discipleship journey. Cherelle shares how this approach creates purpose in their homeschooling days and keeps Christ at the forefront—not as an add-on, but as the foundation. It’s not about fitting faith into school, but about building school upon faith.
Strengthening Family Bonds
Homeschooling also draws families closer. The gift of time—shared meals, group projects, field trips, and life lessons learned together—fosters a deep sense of belonging. “We learn together, pray together, and grow together,” Cherelle says. This closeness doesn’t just strengthen academic outcomes; it builds trust, resilience, and unity in the home. In an age of busyness, homeschooling allows families to slow down and prioritize what matters most: relationships rooted in Christ.

If you’re longing for more peace in your home, deeper discipleship with your children, and education that aligns with your faith, homeschooling might just be the path God is calling you to walk.
