Homeschool Dad Series 12 of 12: The Intentional Father: Spiritual Leadership in the Homeschool

In the final episode of our Homeschool Dad Series, David Nunnery sits down for a heart-to-heart with David Mills about a topic that doesn’t get talked about enough: the vital role of the father in the home. Let’s be honest—it’s easy for dads to feel like “the principal” or just the “financial provider.” But God has called us to be so much more. David Nunnery and David Mills dive deep into what it actually looks like to lead your family spiritually and educationally without feeling overwhelmed. From practical ways to engage in your kids’ daily learning to the life-changing power of mentorship and finding your “tribe” through the Men’s Alliance, this episode is packed with the encouragement every dad needs. Men’s Challenge: Tonight at dinner, you’re the moderator. Instead of asking “How was school?”, ask these two questions: “How did you see God working in your day?” “What is one thing you learned today that surprised you?” Key Takeaways: Healthy men create healthy families, and healthy families create a healthy country. Men should not outsource their children’s education or spiritual growth. Homeschooling can happen in everyday situations, not just at a desk. Dads should ask their wives how they can support them in homeschooling. Dads should equip their kids with answers to tough questions about faith. Engaging in conversations with kids can happen naturally during daily activities.
