What's the biggest threat to the home school community in America? A failing economy? Falling test scores? Wrongly-decided court cases? In this message, Doug Phillips argues "None of the above." Rather, Doug outlines seven poisons that threaten to undermine the health of the home education movement: 1) a loss of vision; 2) the fear of man; 3) a love of security more than freedom; 4) a hatred of accountability; 5) the replacement of a biblical community with a virtual community; 6) incivility and gossip; and 7) the loss of our first love -- the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ. Yet rather than view the current crises as a reasons to fear, wise Christians should find hope. They should view these challenges as an unprecedented opportunity to return to the Lord and remove the "poisons" -- to stand with their families as bright lights in the evil day. - Publisher.
