February 2010

From the President’s Desk

Dear Friends,

It’s hard to believe that the first month of the year is gone.  It’s seems like yesterday we were putting up the Christmas decorations and now spring is just around the corner.  While considering what to write to you this month my thoughts turned to an idea that our church introduced for the New Year: a concerted effort to memorize portions of Scripture.  We have a list of about 40 or so Scripture passages, of different lengths. So everyone from the youngest to the oldest can participate.  Why not take one or two of the passage below and work on them as a family on a cold snowy night, which we still can get in February.  Getting God’s Word into your children’s hearts is part of what homeschooling is all about. It’s not just about reading, writing and arithmetic, but disciplining our children.  Below is a list of some suggested passages going from easy to difficult for teens and parents too.

    Matt. 28:18-20, The Great Commission
    Matt. 6:9-13, The Lord's Prayer
    Matt. 5:1-12, The Beatitudes
    Eph. 6:10-20, The Armor of God   
    Ps. 23, The Shepherd’s Psalm
    Ps. 51, The Penitent’s Prayer
    Ps. 91, Abiding in God’s Presence
    Gen. 1:1 -2:3, Creation
    John 17, Jesus Prays for His Disciples
    Rev. 21-22, New Heaven & a New Earth
    Prov. 2, Wisdom
    The book of James
    Hebrews 11, The Faith Chapter

You can take more than a month; take the whole year if you want.

On another note, ENOCH’s 20th Convention is just around the corner.  Check Enoch’s Website in March for more details.  This year’s Keynote Speakers are Steve and Teri Maxwell and Rebecca Ingram Powell.

Let us continue to remember to pray for the people of Haiti as they continue to struggle just to survive. 

In His Service,

Rich Millward
President

Encouraging Words From Homeschoolers Across the Nation

Who's Really Building the House?

Author: Raquelle Sheen
King David got a great idea one day. He looked around at his luxurious palace and compared it to the tent that the Ark of the Covenant reposed in. The contrast jarred him. He told Nathan the prophet, "Here I am, living in a palace of cedar, while the ark of God remains in a tent." (1 Samuel 7:2). He was bugged. He wanted to honor God and create a permanent tribute to the Lord Almighty. He wanted to build God a house.
Maybe you feel like David. You want to honor God too. God has blessed you and you want to build a permanent tribute to the Lord through your own service. You want to build God a house.
What does this “house” look like? Maybe it means you want to raise a large family of God-honoring children who will be mighty for the kingdom. Maybe, as a homeschooler, you want to start some sort of ministry to strengthen other homeschoolers as they disciple their children. Perhaps there’s a fantastic Christian organization your family wants to work with and thereby reach many people for Christ. Or maybe you simply want to be so much like Christ that your life and testimony speaks volumes for Him. Whatever it is, deep down there is something you are passionate about that you want to do to “build a house” for God.  
God commended David for his desire. He told David, “Because it was in your heart to build a temple for my Name, you did well to have this in your heart.” (2 Chronicles 6:8). Likewise, God is pleased when we want to honor Him and spend ourselves in His service. We do well to have these kinds of desires in our heart.
But then what happened? God chose not to have David build the temple. He told David, “You have shed much blood and have fought many wars. You are not to build a house for my Name, because you have shed much blood on the earth in my sight.” (1 Chronicles 22:8)
Sometimes God chooses not to let our desires on His behalf be carried out either. Maybe God has chosen not to let you have as many children as you’d like. Instead of the small army of godly offspring that you wanted to raise for Him you have just one or two. Maybe the homeschool ministry you tried to start has petered out for lack of interest from others. Perhaps health problems or unexpected responsibilities prevent you from working with that fabulous Christian organization you wanted to be a part of. Or maybe you find that, despite your best efforts to be a good testimony, your sinful self gets in the way over and over and you always seem to muff the job.
Point is:  God is God. While He is pleased with us when we want to do great things for Him, sometimes He has other plans for us. Sometimes He prevents us from carrying out our desires the way we’d like.  However, this does not mean God won’t use us. Just because God doesn’t always choose to have us carry out our Plan A does not mean He won’t use us just as effectively for Plan B. David didn’t build the temple. But he did provide a helping hand to Solomon. We learn in 1 Chronicles 22:5 that, David said, "My son Solomon is young and inexperienced, and the house to be built for the LORD should be of great magnificence and fame and splendor in the sight of all the nations. Therefore I will make preparations for it." So David made extensive preparations before his death. 
Have you stopped to think about the ways you can serve right now, in spite of being thwarted in your initial desires? Maybe the fact that you have just a few children instead of a dozen means that you can open your home more often to others. Maybe the time you would have spent on that homeschool ministry you wanted to start is being spent caring for an aging relative instead. Maybe the fact that you’ve stumbled so often as you strive to be a good testimony gives you a perspective that allows you to greatly encourage others who face the same problems. I could go on, but you get the point.
One other thing stands out in this whole story with David. It’s God’s tender love. God basically told David, “You wanted to build me a house. That’s great. But instead, here’s what’s going to happen: I’M going to build YOU a house.” We read, “The LORD declares to you that the LORD himself will establish a house for you: When your days are over and you rest with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring to succeed you, who will come from your own body, and I will establish his kingdom.” (2 Samuel 7:11-12)
Haven’t you seen this in your life over and over? I know I have. We come to God with our Big Ideas to serve Him. Sometimes God says no to those Big Ideas. Then He turns around and blesses the socks off of us in ways we can’t even imagine.
I remember when we first moved to a new state feeling like God had closed all the doors for me to serve Him with music. I was leaving behind a group of piano students and the position of church pianist/organist. God had closed a door and I moped for some months, as nothing seemed to emerge that I could do. Ten years later I look at what God has done. I’ve lost count of how many students I’ve taught here, I’m now a harpist also, I’ve recorded five CDs, I play routinely for lots of groups of people—I’ve done all kinds of things I never possibly imagined at the time that God initially closed the door. God “built a house” for me in a way I hadn’t even dreamed of.
Be encouraged, friends. Maybe you can’t build that temple you wanted to build. But that’s okay. If you love God and seek to serve Him, He will use you anyway—and He will “build you a house.”
 Raquelle Sheen was homeschooled all her life and obtained her college degree from home also. She and her family have been active in the homeschooling community for many years, having served with state homeschool organizations in several states.

ENOCH Book Review

Homeschool Supermom . . . Not! – A Feast for the Soul

Book Review by Sue August, ENOCH of NJ, Convention Coordinator


Susan Kemmerer’s, Homeschool Supermom. . . Not! is a feast for the soul!  By intimately sharing her own struggles and triumphs, she gently leads the reader to a deeper understanding of God’s perspective on homeschool moms.

As I began to read this book, I felt an internal struggle rise up in me.  Each page introduced new ideas that I was eager to explore.  On the other hand, these new ideas were a springboard for some real work that I wanted to allow God to do in my heart.  Should I gobble up this feast? Or should I slowly savor each paragraph, getting all I could from each morsel of truth?

Fortunately, I could do both!  I began reading Homeschool Supermom . . . Not! in September.  As I was starting the new school year, I read through the entire book in just a few days.  Kemmerer devoted entire chapters to topics such as “Exploding the Supermom Myth”, “Grace-Drenched Homeschooling”, “Confessions of a Disorganized Homeschool Mom” and more.  In each of the twelve chapters there was content that uplifted me, convicted me and reminded me of why I was called to homeschool in the first place.  I knew I would want to go back and read each of these chapters again.

The thing that inspired me to want to go back again and read this book more slowly is Susan Kemmerer’s own example.  In the pages of her book, she describes a process of slowly allowing God to work in her life to change her to be more like Him.  Her willingness to reveal her weaknesses on the pages of this book, demonstrate the sacrifice she has made for each of her readers.  It is through her honesty that her readers can begin to surrender their own homeschools to God’s gentle pruning.

Now, I am on my second read-through.  I am stopping at each scripture reference.  I am taking the time to read and meditate on each scripture.  I’m praying about each section and asking God to reveal where He wants to work in my life.  I do not move on until I have a sense from God that I should. 

Whether you’re new to homeschooling or a veteran; whether you’re confident in what God has called you to do or drowning in self-doubt; whether your children are excelling or failing, I would recommend that you read Homeschool Supermom . . . Not! Let it be the instrument God uses to make you more like Him!

The Much-Ignored Pencil and Paper

by Ro Laberee, Former ENOCH Board Member, Homeschooling mother of 4

It’s 2010!   So, if you've already given up on your New Year’s resolutions, here's one you can actually keep – if you write it down!   Read on …

These days it is hard to find a kid who isn’t doing his schoolwork in some part on a computer.  They clack away or just sit, zombified,  before the glowing rectangles that rule our lives.   It seems the days of opening a daunting textbook and taking out the spiral-bound notebook and pen and really buckling down are gone forever.   This is so regrettable.

We haven’t been spared this phenomenon in my home, but I haven’t given up either.  If only I had a nickel for every time I ask the question:  “Where are your notes?” or “Why aren’t you writing this down?”   I’d be rubbing elbows with the rich and famous.

The responses I get from all of my students goes something like this:   Why is it so important to write it down if the book already has the notes in it?   Isn’t it just a waste of my time?   It makes my hand hurt.  It’s just busy work.  I can type it faster.   It’s boring.  It gives me a headache.  I can’t read what I wrote anyway.  I don’t want to.   Need I say more?

In my early years of homeschooling, I tried to find shortcuts for my kids.  After all, if they really hated taking notes, was it worth the battle?   It took a couple of years to learn the answer to this and it was a bold, emphatic “YES”.   It is a most worthy battle.  Eleven years later, the fight is not over.   I ask my kids to take out their pencil and paper and to write “stuff” down innumerable times a day.

Here is why I think it is important.  By way of disclaimer, you should know that I am not a doctor (of anything) or an occupational therapist, or even a certified teacher!   My background is business management.   But, I was once a student and I am still a student.   I have to review the algebra and biology that I am planning to teach later in the week;  I have to study, too.   From my past efforts and from my present day efforts,  I simply KNOW that when you pick up a pencil or pen, and write out the steps of some complex idea it gets pushed through the neural pathways and squeezed into the spaces of the brain where the info is more likely to stick and stay put.   How’s that for a layman’s interpretation of learning?!

It doesn’t matter if you are taking notes on Shakespeare, Mendelian genetics, or quadratic equations.   If you do not have a pencil in your hand jotting down questions and ideas, and if you are not working through the steps methodically, you are missing an important element of learning.  Yes, it does take more time.   But it is more efficient because your student is more likely to remember something he or she has written down. 

Typing is easy.   Reading is easy.   Writing, especially for the clickety-clack texting generation, is painfully slow and tedious.   But something is happening in the moments when your hand is moving slowly across the page, etching out the steps to your math problem or jotting down new words and ideas.  Concepts are being massaged into your mind – forcibly pressed into your brain.  Learning should change the brain.  Watching is passive.  Reading is passive.  But writing requires your student to interact with the new information, not merely receive it.   And I believe that this produces a better result.   Specifically, it results in more change in the brain and this equals learning.

It is so hard to go back to old technology (pencil and paper) when grease-lightening communications are at our fingertips throughout the day.   But taking notes should never go out of style.  I believe that real learning depends on it.  Write that down!

ENOCH EVENTS

The ENOCH Convention – What’s It Really Worth?

By Sue August
Convention Coordinator


I love a good contest, don’t you?  There’s something exciting about competing for a prize that just energizes me.

This year at the ENOCH Convention, we will have $600+ worth of merchandise up for grabs!  Many of our exhibitors have agreed to partner with ENOCH in sponsoring a “Passport” Contest.  Each family will be given a “passport” as they enter the Expo Center.  When you visit participating exhibitors, they will stamp your “passport”.  Turn in your completed “passport” to be entered into the drawing for a basket full of merchandise from our exhibitors!  The prizes will be on display at the ENOCH booth.

Of course, no one should make the prizes their primary reason for attending the ENOCH Convention.  The value of attending workshops and conversing with exhibitors far outweighs $600+ worth of free merchandise.  The “Passport” Contest is just the icing on the cake.

Mark your calendar for May 14-15 and make it a priority to keep those dates clear.  Our prayer is that God will use the 2010 ENOCH Convention to equip you for a grace filled 2010-11 school year and beyond!

ENOCH is now on Facebook!

If you have Facebook, be sure to look for the ENOCH of New Jersey page.  We are trying to get the word out. Tell every homeschooler you know. Become a fan. ENOCH will have links, announcements, stories, etc. that will be posted to help you.

TrueU curriculum: ---Apologetics Class using the below-described Focus on the Family DVD Video Series Curriculum:

!!!ALARM!!!:  More than 80% of young adults do not return to church and have their faith eroded after college?  Why?  THERE are many contributing FACTORS TO BE SURE; but, in short, they have not been properly prepared.  Should we feel hopeless and helpless about this?  NO!  What can we do?  Focus on the family has responded with true-U, just for young adults, ages 15-22!

TrueU is a DVD-based apologetics curriculum. Dr. Del Tackett, architect and voice of Focus on the Family’s The Truth Project®, describes this endeavor this way:
“Produced by Focus on the Family in conjunction with Coldwater Media, TrueU is an apologetics training series primarily geared to help prepare high school students for the rigorous challenges and attacks that will confront them on the university campus. My guess is that it will end up benefiting a whole lot more folks than just high school seniors.”
It is important to clarify that TrueU is not “The Truth Project for teens.” As envisioned by Dr. Tackett and our staff, TrueU will be, in essence, a series of “prequels” (or lead-in studies) to The Truth Project. (Visit the link for additional information:  http://www.mytruthproject.org/truthproject/trueu/home.html ).
TrueU is designed primarily to help students solidify their Christian faith with foundational apologetics training. This will equip young people to stand strong in the college and university environment, and also serve as a precursor to the in-depth study presented in The Truth Project of how to live out a Christian worldview in everyday life.

CLASS FORMAT:
WHERE:    Washington Valley Chapel, 57 Kahdena Road, Morristown, NJ
WHEN:    Weekly, Sunday evenings from 6:30 to 9:00 PM.  Two, one hour sessions each week with a half-hour break for refreshments and fellowship.  Each session will have a 30 minute video segment and 30 minute follow-up discussion segment.
START DATE:    Sunday evening, February 14th
TUITION:    $35.00 per student  ($75.00 for 3 students or more in a family)
MODERATOR:  Pastor John Kalis, Sr. Pastor at Washington Valley Chapel for 14 years and homeschool father.  Apologetics Class Instructor for two years to High School students.

In addition to collecting real-world data on arriving terrapin, participants will learn about wetland ecology, wildlife biology (both game and non-game species), coastal geomorphology, human impact on fragile salt marshes, and the history of New Jersey's barrier islands. There will also be great opportunities for kayaking, seining, and learning about breeding oyster-catchers & the Re-clam the Bay programs.

During the three-day/two-night workshop you will stay in the Sedge House, a renovated duck-hunting lodge, which is equipped with a common room, 7 bunkrooms (you will have to share a room), a full kitchen and dining room. As part of the experience, you will live a conservation ethic. Fresh water is limited (we transport bottled water from the mainland) as is electricity-a solar generator provides power. Grey water from sinks and showers is treated in a special grey-water system and sewage is composted in a Clivus Multrum composting toilet.

This program is open to home school students ages 10-16 years old. Parents may attend, but must participate in the program. The cost of this three-day program is $70 per adult, $55 per student. SPACE IS LIMITED, with a maximum of 14 participants. A non-refundable deposit of $50 is required to secure your space. The cost includes transportation to and from the island, instruction, equipment and facility use. Participants must provide their own meals and bedding.
REGISTRATION IS FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE.

Each family will be responsible for the food and preparation of one meal for the group during your stay. On site, there is a gas range stove, refrigerator, a gas grill and a quick steamer for preparing the day's harvest, as well as all the cooking utensils you may need.

Registration deadline and $50 deposit is June 1, 2010. For more information or to register, contact Liz Jackson at (908) 637-4125 or send an email to ejackson@dep.state.nj.us. You can also visit:  www.njfishandwildlife.com/sedge.htm
