Zan Tyler Podcast: Thriving in Your Homeschool

What if the real fruit of homeschooling doesn’t show up for years? Zan and producer, Caleb Price, speak candidly about the part few parents admit — the sacrifice, the stretch, and the surrender of comfort. But they also share the beautiful truth on the other side: stronger relationships, deeper faith, and children who feel secure and known. If you’ve had weary moments, this episode will steady your heart and encourage you not to quit too soon.

Are we raising boys to sit still—or to stand strong? Zan and homeschool mom Heather Haupt tackle what it really looks like to raise sons with courage, honor, and purpose. Drawing from her book Knights in Training, Heather shares how imagination, faith, and intentional training shape boys into men who defend truth and live with integrity. Boys are wired for movement, challenge, and meaning—and when we understand that, they flourish. And while this conversation centers on sons, the vision for character applies to every child.

How do you protect your children without clinging too tightly? Zan and Meeke Addison, homeschool mom of six (soon to be seven), talk through the daily tension of raising children anchored in Christ while preparing them to engage a culture that often pushes back against biblical truth. They wrestle with the pressures of social media, the challenge of releasing children as they grow, and the importance of trusting the Holy Spirit more than our own control. Meeke also shares how BJU Press Homeschool has come alongside her family, reducing the overwhelm, and providing a solid biblical worldview woven throughout their curriculum. Discover how to parent with conviction and grace—holding firm to truth while placing your children in God’s hands.
