3rd ANNUAL CHRISTIAN HERITAGE
HOMESCHOOLING & FAMILY DISCIPLESHIP CONFERENCE

“PERSEVERE … AND FINISH WELL!”

P Henry #3

    “It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not be religionists, but by Christians; not on religions, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ. For this very reason peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum, prosperity, and freedom of worship here.” ~ Patrick Henry; Give Me Liberty: The Uncompromising Statesmanship of Patrick Henry, David J. Vaughn

~ Absolutely fabulous! Doug Phillips’ passion is contagious and inspirational … touches the heart at an emotional level … [All the sessions I went to] were fantastic and useful … Definitely looking forward to “Plan the Work, Work the Plan.”
~ Highlight: the teachings & the fellowship with so many like-minded, family-focused people. It really feels like one big family to learn alongside of.
~ ... we want to congratulate you on an outstanding conference! We were very encouraged and inspired and renewed in our family vision!
~ I want to thank you for encouraging my husband and myself in attending the Christian Heritage Home Educators of Washington Conference. Surely it has been life changing. All Glory be to God. (2008 CH Conference Attendees)

A Lesson from Patrick Henry:

    So Henry learned the hard way that life is neither fair nor easy, and that the path to success and greatness was perseverance. He faced many obstacles as a young man, and might have lived and died in obscurity had he not determined to succeed. When chastened by adversity, he matured, and when humbled by failure, he endured…Throughout his sixty-three years, he faced both personal trials and political turmoil with persistent faith and determination. ~ ~
    David J. Vaughan, Give Me Liberty: The Uncompromising Statesmanship of Patrick Henry, p. 281-2
