People sometimes ask us why we started Homeschooling Torah.

The short answer is that we wanted to teach our children Scripture—not just as one subject among many, but as the foundation for everything else. We wanted the Bible to be their primary textbook.

When our children were young, we began each day around the breakfast table. We would read the Torah together, discuss it, and pray together. Then we would move into the rest of our school day.

As we looked for curriculum, however, we kept running into the same problem. Most materials treated the Bible as an add-on. You could do your “Bible time” in the morning, then switch over to history, science, language arts, and the rest of life as if Scripture had little to say about those subjects.

Many other curricula saw the Torah as no longer relevant.

But that wasn’t how we read our Bibles.

• We believed that the fear of YHVH is the beginning of wisdom (Psalm 111:10).
• We believed that all truth belongs to Him (Deuteronomy 29:29).
• We believed that Deuteronomy 6:7-9 was describing a way of life, where parents teach their children diligently throughout the day—when sitting in the house, walking by the way, lying down, and rising up.

So we started creating our own lessons.

At first, they were simply notes in my planning binders. Lesson plans. Discussion questions. Reading assignments. Activities for children of different ages. Practical ways to study Scripture as a family while still teaching the academic subjects our children needed to learn.

Over time, those notes grew into curriculum.

Then something unexpected happened.

Other families started asking for copies.

Many of them were facing the same challenge we had faced. They wanted a homeschool that was built upon Scripture from the ground up. They wanted materials that treated the Bible as the primary textbook rather than an occasional supplement.

What began as resources for our own family eventually became Homeschooling Torah.

Yet the mission has never really changed.

• Our goal is not merely to help families finish school assignments.
• Our goal is to help families build homes where the Word of God is central.
• We want parents to feel equipped to disciple their children.
• We want children to learn how to evaluate every area of life according to Scripture.
• We want families to understand not only what the Bible says, but how to walk it out in practical ways every day.

Over the years, we have often returned to passages such as Ezekiel 44:23, where YHVH commends those who teach His people the difference between the holy and the common, the clean and the unclean. We have also been challenged by Yeshua’s parable of the talents. Whatever understanding, experience, and opportunities YHVH has entrusted to us, we want to invest them faithfully for His Kingdom.

That’s why we continue writing curriculum, recording classes, creating resources, and encouraging families.

When families join Homeschooling Torah, they gain access to a complete library of curriculum and resources for every stage of learning, from preschool through high school. Rather than treating Scripture as an occasional supplement, we use the Bible as the foundation for everything we teach.

Our goal has never been merely to help parents check off academic requirements. We want to help families learn together around the table, discussing the Word of God, asking questions, and building a biblical worldview that touches every area of life.

Many homeschool programs separate children by age and divide subjects into isolated compartments. While there is certainly a place for age-appropriate learning, our heart has always been to help families learn together as much as possible. Just as we did in our own home, we want parents and children opening the Scriptures together, studying history together, learning Hebrew together, discussing ideas together, and growing together.

Ultimately, our prayer is that the next generation would be firmly grounded in the Torah, unwavering in their faith in Yeshua the Messiah, and equipped to walk faithfully with YHVH for the rest of their lives.

Homeschooling Torah is simply our family’s attempt to provide tools that help make that possible.

And after all these years, that is still why we do what we do.
