Building Faith Families
The Coastal Home Educators Conference is June 13th-15th at Community Bible Church in Beaufort, SC.
Are you interested in homeschooling, but overwhelmed by all the information out there? We believe that God has given us the ability to teach and train our own children. We hope to encourage you that He will enable you to do the same. Our goal is to raise children who will grow in the fear and admonition of the Lord. Our heart is for our kids to love Christ and show His love to others. The academics are important, but secondary to the character of our children’s hearts.
CHEC is a ministry of Community Bible Church Christian Academy and exists to encourage homeschoolers in the coastal region of South Carolina and Georgia. This non-profit, volunteer-run conference is geared to every-day families who would like to educate their children at home. Our heart is to reach out to our community and offer resources, encouragement and help to those who homeschool or who are interested in homeschooling.
After successfully holding book sales for several years, God put it on our hearts to try having speakers to help homeschoolers renew and refocus for the new homeschooling year. This is our sixth conference and we are excited about what God has planned for the future.
This year our conference includes – Steve Demme of Building Faith Families and founder of Math-U-See – Keynote * Intro to Homeschooling – Dr. Carl Broggi * Constitution Class – Bob Menges * Featured Speaker – Tim Bryant * and many other Workshops! BOOK Blast – Used Curriculum Sale * Vendor Hall – New Curriculum Sales * Come and see for yourself! Register today at – http://checonference.com/registration/!

Keynote
Our Keynote is Steve Demme of Building Faith Families and the author and founder of Math-U-See. Steve and his wife Sandra have been married for 32 years. They have been blessed with
four sons: Isaac, Ethan, Joseph, and Johnny. With God’s help, they have all been home educated.
Steve addresses a variety of topics at homeschool conferences to encourage parents in their God-given responsibilities of raising and training their children for His glory.
As a former math teacher who has taught at all levels of math in public, private, and Christian schools, Steve is also the author and founder of Math-U-See. He has served in full or part time pastoral ministry for many years after graduating from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary and has served on the boards of Joni and Friends, Christian Freedom International, and Lifework Forum.
Other Workshops
We will continue to offer the Men’s Track Workshops geared specifically for dads. These workshops will be covering topics such as leadership, being the family principal, prayer and teaching your children. We also have a wonderful line up of Ladies’ Workshops giving practical how-to advice and encouragement for women. Vendor favorites will be back along with new vendor workshops designed to inspire. Here is our most current Workshop Schedule !
Another Featured Speaker, Tim Bryant
After our daughter Ellie passed away just after Christmas this past year, my good friend Denise invited me to join her at a 15 week class, Transformed by Truth in Charleston at Lowcountry Biblical Counseling Center. I can’t tell you how much the teaching ministered to my heart, as Tim Bryant walked through topics such as Unity in Conflict, Grief, Suffering and Gaining a Transforming View of Christ. What makes LBCC different is that the approach is strictly from the Bible, stripped from the philosophy of our day.
We are so pleased that Tim Bryant will be coming to CHEC as a featured speaker this year. I know that you will find his teaching very helpful and applicable as you seek to grow as moms, dads and homeschoolers.
High School Constitution Class Sat – Included with your CHEC Registration!
Bob Menges is teaching this five-part course on Saturday. It is open to high school students and adults and is included for high school students and adults with your family registration.
These five sessions will lay the groundwork for looking at government through the lens of the Bible and how we can bring glory to God as we pursue an understanding of our nation’s history from a Biblical Worldview. We will trace the providential hand of God from the time of the Reformation up through the ratification of the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
In order for us to develop our Christian Worldview of government and our understanding of the linkage of that worldview to our government, it is imperative for us to understand the truth about history and make the Biblical connection to the truths about limited government under the Rule of Law (United States Constitution). These sessions are not simply another talk or class about history and government; this is about developing an in-depth understanding of this subject from a Biblical Worldview in order to bring Glory to God with our thoughts and actions concerning our government.”
Sessions
Session # 1 Biblical Worldview of Government – Purpose of government?
Session # 2 Historical Background of the United States Constitution
Session # 3 Historical Background of the United States Constitution
Session # 4 Failure of the Articles of Confederation
Session # 5 United States Constitution
We hope that we will see you in Beaufort on the 13th-15th! If you have any questions please email Charlotte Cushman at charlottecushman@gmail.com or call 843-592-1502.
