| 0:00.0 | Hey everyone. This is Heidi St. John. Welcome to the Heidi St. John podcast. I'm really glad you guys are |
| 0:05.8 | taking just a little bit of time to spend with me today. You guys know that I am obsessed with what's |
| 0:12.3 | happening in our schools. It's the reason why my husband and I started the homeschool resource center |
| 0:16.6 | here in Vancouver. It's the reason why I ran for Congress. It's the reason why I'm constantly |
| 0:21.4 | telling parents get your kids out of the public schools. But guess what? There is a little bit |
| 0:26.6 | of a silver lining happening in our schools. And it's happening because of my guest today. |
| 0:31.4 | Joel Penton is here. He is the CEO of Lifewise Academy. And they provide off-campus Bible study classes to kids in public |
| 0:39.4 | school. Wait for it during school hours. I know. You guys, your heads are exploding. The last time I |
| 0:45.3 | had Joel on my show, we had so many questions and so much great feedback that I am thrilled |
| 0:51.1 | to have invited him out here and he's joining me in person. You guys are going to love |
| 0:55.5 | this conversation. Stick around. I think you're going to be encouraged. All right, you guys, |
| 1:07.9 | well, before I get going, just remember if you want to come out and see me this year, |
| 1:11.5 | I would love to see you and hug your neck and say all the things and hear what God's doing |
| 1:15.3 | in your life. |
| 1:15.7 | You can find out about my schedule by going to Heidi St.john.com forward slash event. |
| 1:21.3 | All the new merch is now in the store. |
| 1:23.9 | My new theme for this year, born for this, that shirt, that white t-shirt with the |
| 1:29.6 | black font. You guys, this is a black and white issue for me. We kind of went back and forth like, |
| 1:33.4 | should we do turquoise? Should we do a really cute color color? What's the pantone color of the year? |
| 1:38.2 | And I was like, nope, black and white. You guys were born for this. You're born for this battle, born for this time in human history. |
| 1:45.0 | It's your life. Show up for it. Don't forget to pick up your sculpture. I'm super excited about |
| 1:48.9 | these. They are starting to fly off the shelves. Check it out at Heidi St.john.com and click on |
