The Motu Proprio was not just a short-term solution to the problem of some schismatics and a few people with nostalgia for the old Mass. It is rather part of a plan to renew the whole Church, announced by the Holy Father the day after his election and based on principles he has expressed for years.

Education is far more than just a matter of filling the mind with facts and data. It inevitably also involves the child's emotions (or passions). How can emotions help in education, how can they hinder, and how can the emotions themselves be educated?

Deep faith inevitably is a deep dark well, filled with light but experienced in darkness. Ordinary grace for homeschoolers is not enough, not sufficient, often not full enough to meet all the challenges of adolescents. God leads homeschoolers into Mystery, into divine surrender where they experience divine light as darkness and seeming failure as wonderful achievement.

Order and organization are essential in having anything work well. For homeschoolers, the order among the members of a family, and the order in their curriculum are essential. Each member of the family must think about the common good of the family, and the family as a whole must see that it is ordered to the good of society. Homeschooling will work better if the order and organization in our homes starts with God.
