Summary

How does a family live in a tent while homeschooling six children and building a business? In this episode, Elisha and Katie Voetberg join the Courageous Parenting podcast to share their story of radical sacrifice for a worthy vision. After buying land in northern Idaho, the Voetbergs made the bold decision to live in a tent through a brutal winter — all while homeschooling their six children, building their online music academy, and running their own top-rated podcast. This is a conversation full of grit, faith, and hard-won wisdom for any family willing to count the cost of pursuing what God has called them to. In this episode, you'll hear: — Why the Voetbergs chose to sacrifice comfort for the sake of a bigger vision — How they homeschooled six kids through a tent-living winter — Lessons learned building an online business while living off-grid — How faith carried them through the hardest seasons — Encouragement for families facing their own season of sacrifice If you've ever wondered what it takes to pursue a dream that costs you something, this episode will challenge and encourage you.
