Welcome back to the Journey Through Homeschooling podcast with your hosts, Jami Thornsberry, and Adonna Pryor. In this episode, we’re wrapping up our deep dive into “Teaching from Rest: A Homeschooler’s Guide to Unshakable Peace” by Sarah McKenzie. Jami and Adonna reflect on the book’s practical wisdom for homeschool moms—whether you’re just starting out or a seasoned pro. Together, they explore why it’s so important for parents to not only pour into their kids academically, but also to keep filling their own cups—emotionally, spiritually, and educationally. This conversation tackles how modeling a love of reading and learning can spark a revolution toward literacy and original thought in our increasingly digital world. They share personal stories, historical context, and practical tips, from choosing literary mentors to carving out daily “Drop Everything and Read” moments as a family. Plus, they address the challenges of our screen-heavy culture, the declining literacy rates, and how to reignite a passion for great books—starting with yourself, right where you are.
