Learning to Think with William Bortins

Are you looking for a free place to think? Are you tired of hearing a scripted point of view read by an empty body? Our culture is saturated with noise: clickbait headlines, news narratives, political movements, and more. All of these distractions have taught us what to think not how to think. This show hosts conversations with individuals who have demonstrated their ability to sift through the noise and express counter cultural ideas with practical applications.


When Your Best Isn't Enough (And Why That's Okay) Everyday Educator

Feeling overwhelmed by homeschooling? You're not alone. In this heartfelt conversation, host Delise Germond sits down with Kamilah Carter for an honest discussion about the challenges of homeschool motherhood—and the God who equips us for every moment. Kamilah opens up about a recent crisis that left her feeling helpless, sharing how she learned to lean on community, trust God in the fire, and recognize her daily need for grace. Together, they explore: Why the gap between our expectations and reality can leave us feeling like we're drowning The importance of Christian community in our homeschool journey How God uses our children to refine us and reveal our need for Him Practical wisdom about understanding our children's developmental stages The truth that God has fully equipped us through His Word for every good work This isn't a conversation full of Pinterest-perfect advice or organizational hacks. Instead, it's a raw, encouraging reminder that homeschooling is a spiritual journey that requires us to return to the cross again and again—and that's exactly where God meets us.   This episode of the Everyday Educator is sponsored by: Judson College Judson College, North Carolina's only four-year accredited confessional Christian institution, equips passionate students with over 25 majors and exceptional faculty to pursue God's calling in ministry, missions, or the workplace while experiencing vibrant community through our unique House System.
