Most families are just surviving. Arrows & Acres is for the ones who want something more. Daniel and Allison Hartman are a husband and wife raising a large family on Florida's Gulf Coast — homeschooling, homesteading, running a family business, and doing all of it on purpose. This podcast is the conversation they're having at the kitchen table, in the truck, and at the end of a long day — and now they're pulling up a chair for you. They're not here to motivate you. They're here to challenge you. Every episode cuts into the real stuff: what it actually takes to raise children who become capable, godly adults. How to protect your family's attention in a world designed to steal it. What biblical manhood and womanhood look like when you strip away the cultural noise. How to build something together as a family — a business, a homestead, a legacy — without handing your life over to debt or a schedule someone else controls. What it means to disciple your children n…","last_synced_at":"2026-09-10T00:21:27.284478+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/arrows-and-acres-7836536"},"episode":{"title":"Homeschooling Part 1: We Thought We Were Doing It Right.

I had a college degree and still thought a classroom would do it better. Daniel knew from the time he was sixteen that our children would be homeschooled. He wasn't arrogant about it. He was just clear. The worldview being taught in a classroom, that evolution is fact and God is theory, was enough for him to decide. That was enough for me too, eventually. But even knowing the why, I put McKenna in a classical Christian private school for K4. Because I was certain they could do it better than I could. That's where this episode starts. Part 1 of our homeschooling series covers the whole story. Our conviction and how we landed there. McKenna's journey, the dyslexia, the college years we nearly committed to, and the pivot that changed everything. The benefits that matter most, and they are not the ones most families talk about. And three of the biggest objections Daniel and I hear constantly at every conference and in every conversation: \"My children won't be socialized.\" We tell you exactly why that argument doesn't hold. \"I'm not qualified.\" You know your child. No one in any classroom does. \"We can't afford it.\" Daniel's answer is honest. It may not be comfortable. But it is true. This is the episode for the mom who has been turning this over in her mind for months and just needs someone to tell her she can do it. She can. 🌿🏹","meta_description":"I didn't think I could do it.
