About this item
Legacy, by Ruth Adams, is an important book for every homeschooling family, and every homeschooled graduate, to consider. With over 35 years of perspective on the modern-day Christian homeschooling movement, both as a homeschooled student, and homeschooling mother, Ruth brings a challenge to pursue holiness, without embracing legalism. With exquisite balance, she helps parents to reach their child's heart with the gospel, and avoid merely training him or her to externals. With candor and honesty, Ruth calls us all to strive for a high calling, but avoids presenting her family as having already arrived at perfection. This book is bold and compassionate. It is both challenging and affirming, and adds practical tips along the way.
