The Great Pause™
There comes a moment when effort no longer produces clarity.
You have not been careless or irresponsible. You have read, planned, prayed, adjusted, and persevered. And yet, instead of peace, uncertainty has begun to grow—about your children, about yourself, and about whether you are quietly failing a vocation you long to fulfill faithfully.
This confusion is not a moral failure. Very often, it is simply the result of too much noise.
If you would like a place to rest for a while, The Great Pause™ is here.
A forty-day Christian sabbatical for the weary homeschooling mother
You are not stepping away from your calling
Pausing does not mean abandoning your children or neglecting their education. It does not mean giving up or falling behind. Most mothers who arrive here are deeply committed—they are simply tired of carrying the weight of every decision alone.
Stillness, for a time, is not a failure of faithfulness. Very often, it is the way clarity is restored.
Why this matters
When noise quiets, attention returns. As urgency loosens, wisdom has room to speak. Education—like formation itself—cannot be rushed without cost.
This is why we begin where we do.
The Great Pause™
A free, forty-day Christian sabbatical for the weary homeschooling mother.
This is not a program to complete or a plan to follow. It is a Christian homeschool sabbatical intended to restore steadiness, trust, and clarity before decisions are made—a bounded season of rest that allows you to step away from urgency, quiet the noise surrounding your choices, and think clearly again without pressure.
Each day offers a small return to stillness through brief readings and gentle reflection. There is nothing to keep up with and nothing to prove. Ordinary life continues. Learning may continue quietly. Heavy decisions can wait.
You may move slowly, pause when needed, or step away at any time. This is not a commitment. It is a place to rest.
