Scott & Marcia Somerville

As Staff Attorney at Home School Legal Defense Association, Scott Somerville has successfully handled thousands of legal contacts on behalf of families in 38 different states. Scott was a homeschooler before he was a lawyer: he was president of the Christian Home Educators of New Hampshire before he left to attend Harvard Law School where he graduated with honors in 1992. Scott has spoken and written extensively on parental rights and the history of American education law.

Marcia Somerville is the author of the Tapestry of Grace (TOG) history curriculum. Marcia has taught all of their children at home from the beginning, and now that five out of six have graduated, she serves other homeschooling families as a speaker and author.

Charles & Kathy Lowers

Charles & Kathy Lowers

Charles and Kathy Lowers are the founders of Considering Homeschooling, a national Christian ministry that introduces believers to the blessings of private biblical homeschooling. After watching fellow Christian activists try to save others, but lose their own children through preschool and public education, Charles and Kathy asked God to show them a way to help rescue Christian children. While the organization started as a mom's meeting, they soon realized that the heart of the ministry and a requirement for revival was the restoration of the Christian family -- calling fathers to assume their God-given role as the head of the family.

John Wojnicki

John Wojnicki is the Chairman of Christian Family Schools. He and his wife Laura have been married 34 years and lead CFS of San Diego. They homeschooled their four children for over 20 years. Their entire family has graduated and those with school-aged children are now homeschooling. John and Laura are blessed with five grandchildren, so far! John is an Elder in his local church and has been the President and teacher of a large adult fellowship class there for 15 years. He is an “interactive participatory” teacher who is a sales trainer by profession. Attend a John Wojnicki session and you will be creatively moved to consider what God’s Word says you should be doing with the life He has given you!
