Are you a homeschooling family that struggles to find devotions that teach spiritual truth but also hold your kids' attention? Do you wish you could find clean, riveting fiction for your children to read that doesn't shy away from real-life characters, but is also well-grounded in living out genuine faith?
In this episode, Erin and Amanda speak with Tim Shoemaker, author of twenty books and a popular speaker at conferences and schools around the country. With over twenty-five years working with youth, he is able to relate to his reading (and listening) audience in a very unique way... creating object lessons that convey spiritual truth as well as writing mystery, adventure, and suspense that is clean, powerful, and definitely not “hokey” Christian fiction. Tim is all about helping kids grow to be men and women of faith and character … and about encouraging the parents who love them.
