The Smithsonian came under fire in congressional hearings recently due to the displays that the Trump administration has labeled racist and incorrect history. What’s happening in the Smithsonian and in American history museums in general is not just random liberals changing diplays to suit their politics. You’ve heard of critical race theory, which is just one subset of critical theory. What we’re witnessing here is another subset known as Critical America Theory. It’s an attempt to label all of American history as problematic, and it's not just the museums.--> The Report: https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Smithsonian-Report-Saving-Americas-Story.pdf <--James Lindsay/Critical America Theory https://newdiscourses.com/2026/03/critical-america-theory-left-and-right/James Lindsay/Long March https://newdiscourses.com/2026/03/explaining-the-long-march-through-the-institutions/Podcast: Mary Grabar/Debunking Howard Zinn and 1619 https://youtu.be/kan4GtFUBxQ?si=tqIwyS8MH6md6jetPodcast: Julie Behling/Beneath Sheep's Clothing https://youtu.be/uVtS7CwKYiQ?si=lpLQ-ejEMgig2GL_ Podcast: Xi Van Fleet/Mao's America https://youtu.be/kwTcBXRon0g?si=ogsieRcgFPXoJyn2Podcast: James Lindsay/The Marxification of Education https://youtu.be/uZPRbJEMWD8?si=RvDeFCoKubTteuvXKimberle Crenshaw/Guardian Article https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/aug/27/why-trumps-attack-on-the-smithsonian-mattersPodcast: Ken Ham/One Race One Blood https://youtu.be/ee4KL10KFdc?si=w1BkKJ7_6qCHWudxLink: National Archives/AI https://x.com/sparklingruby/status/1637550235978199040?s=20Visit my website: https://nickitruesdell.com/Shop Knowledge Keepers Bookstore: https://knowledgekeepersbookstore.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nickitruesdellofficialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nickitruesdell/X: https://x.com/nickitruesdell

We need to understand what made America great if we want to make America great again. The Bible is the source of all wisdom for Christians, and the Constitution is still the answer to America’s issues. This combination has worked well for Americans for over 200 years! America was once called “a city on a hill,” and it was because of this freedom that was grounded in strong biblical principles.ResourcesThe Mayflower Compact https://www.pilgrimhall.org/the-mayflower-compact/The New England Primer https://nickitruesdell.com/what-the-new-england-primer-teaches-us-about-america/ The Westminster Catechism https://nickitruesdell.com/teaching-your-children-the-catechism/The Declaration of Independence https://nickitruesdell.com/able-and-mighty-men-the-biographies-of-the-men-who-signed-the-declaration-of-independence-free-study-guide/ The U.S. Constitution https://nickitruesdell.com/homeschooling-with-the-united-states-constitution/ Connect with Nicki -- ⁠Website https://nickitruesdell.com/Homeschool 101⁠ https://nickitruesdell.com/homeschool-101/ ⁠Homeschool Consultations⁠ https://nickitruesdell.com/homeschool-consulting/ ⁠Facebook⁠ https://www.facebook.com/nickitruesdellofficial⁠Instagram⁠ https://www.instagram.com/nickitruesdell/ X⁠ https://x.com/nickitruesdellGet my books:⁠Anyone Can Homeschool⁠ on Amazon, Kindle, and Audible! https://amzn.to/4fnSWs8Home Sweet Homeschool on Amazon and Kindle https://amzn.to/4qY4zMb

Having more than two kids in America gets all sorts of backlash from the world, but sadly, also from Christians. But it’s because so many have chosen the world’s wisdom over God’s.

As Christians, how do we parent wisely in this environment?Our culture has become saturated in all forms of rebellion against God, not the least of which is the LGBT movement. No matter how you raise your children, they will be exposed. Children’s toys, cookies, candy, cereal, clothing lines, and cartoons have all become mouthpieces for sexual perversion. You would literally have to live in a bubble to keep your children from it.Today I want to encourage Christian parents that this battle is worth your time.Related Links:Mama Bear Apologetics Guide to Sexuality: https://amzn.to/43Y2aXbNEW Mama Bear Apologetics Guide to Sexuality and Gender Identity: Empowering Your Kids to Understand and Live Out God’s Design; Updated and Expanded https://amzn.to/4fvlvpQLove Thy Body by Nancy Pearcy https://amzn.to/4uoHLFRThe Queering of the American Child https://amzn.to/49KUgUJ https://www.heritage.org/marriage-and-family/commentary/young-children-are-being-targeted-sexual-content-the-equality-actShelter your children: https://www.expositoryparenting.org/blog/2021/11/2?rq=shelterIt’s time to question the teaching credentials of science deniers: https://nickitruesdell.com/question-teaching-credentials-of-science-deniers/School library books: https://www.whatsinsidechildrensbooks.com/articles/what-in-the-world-is-going-on-at-the-schoolhouse/“50 Best LGBTQ colleges” https://www.collegechoice.net/choosing-a-college/best-lgbt-friendly-colleges-and-universities/Bark phone: https://www.bark.us/?ref=W3CKRZQConnect with Nicki -- ⁠Website https://nickitruesdell.com/Facebook⁠ https://www.facebook.com/nickitruesdellofficial⁠Instagram⁠ https://www.instagram.com/nickitruesdell/ X⁠ https://x.com/nickitruesdell Get my books:⁠Anyone Can Homeschool⁠ https://amzn.to/4fnSWs8Knowledge Keepers books on Amazon https://tinyurl.com/4h9k4dry

As homeschooling grows at a rapid pace, we are witnessing a growing demand for free money, free materials, free activities to make it easier. In addition to that, we are watching state governments increase their demands on homeschooling parents in the name of “protection” and “academic rigor.”The freedom to educate your children at home is such a basic right, but it is really controversial in many circles, especially those who view government as the giver of liberty. Homeschool freedom has only existed for the past 30-40 years in America, and with growth has come more threats to that freedom.Today’s show is about education freedom and education subsidies. I’m joined by Lauren Gideon of Education Independence to discuss the current threats to homeschool freedom and what we can do about it.LINKS:Education Independence website: https://chooseeducationindependence.com/about/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EducationIndependenceCC/X: https://x.com/eduindependenceInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/education.independence/Understanding school choice: https://nickitruesdell.com/understanding-school-choice/Connect with Nicki -- ⁠Website https://nickitruesdell.com/Homeschool 101⁠ https://nickitruesdell.com/homeschool-101/ ⁠Homeschool Consultations⁠ https://nickitruesdell.com/homeschool-consulting/ ⁠Facebook⁠ https://www.facebook.com/nickitruesdellofficial⁠Instagram⁠ https://www.instagram.com/nickitruesdell/ ⁠Amazon⁠ https://www.amazon.com/shop/nickitruesdell.com?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_aipsfshop_WZG2CAV74BJG6723114Q X⁠ https://x.com/nickitruesdell   Get my books:⁠Anyone Can Homeschool⁠ on Amazon, Kindle, and Audible! https://amzn.to/4fnSWs8Home Sweet Homeschool on Amazon and Kindle https://amzn.to/4qY4zMbKnowledge Keepers books on Amazon https://tinyurl.com/4h9k4dry

I’m going back to basics on today’s episode because I want to take time to introduce and define some popular homeschooling methods, and I’m starting with the Charlotte Mason – or CM - method. Whether you’re new to homeschooling or just new to Charlotte Mason’s ideas, I think you’re going to discover some very useful tips.I love the CM method because it’s vastly different than the traditional school approach. It is textbook-free, very gentle, using short lessons, real books as the foundation for language arts, trading tests and quizzes for things like narration and dictation, building an appreciation for nature and the arts, and including the whole family together for as many subjects as possible. In fact, many of the methods I share on my blog and this podcast are Charlotte Mason methods.Stacy Montgomery from Simply Charlotte Mason is my guest.Related Links:Simply Charlotte Mason Website: https://simplycharlottemason.com/ref/1ifb0/Use coupon code NICKI for 10% off Connect with Nicki -- ⁠Website https://nickitruesdell.com/Homeschool 101⁠ https://nickitruesdell.com/homeschool-101/ ⁠Homeschool Consultations⁠ https://nickitruesdell.com/homeschool-consulting/ ⁠Facebook⁠ https://www.facebook.com/nickitruesdellofficial⁠Instagram⁠ https://www.instagram.com/nickitruesdell/ ⁠Amazon⁠ https://www.amazon.com/shop/nickitruesdell.com?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_aipsfshop_WZG2CAV74BJG6723114Q X⁠ https://x.com/nickitruesdell   Get my books:⁠Anyone Can Homeschool⁠ on Amazon, Kindle, and Audible! https://amzn.to/4fnSWs8Home Sweet Homeschool on Amazon and Kindle https://amzn.to/4qY4zMbKnowledge Keepers books on Amazon https://tinyurl.com/4h9k4dry
