Countercultural parenting can feel daunting . . . and lonely. But you can raise your family in a post-Christian culture with faith, joy, and hope.

As Christians, we are called to pursue more than a life of comfort and ease. Nicole Jacobsmeyer learned this lesson when the Lord made it clear that He was shifting her family in a new, unexpected direction. The Jacobsmeyers traded big box stores and their comfortable suburban life for cows and country living.

This is not a book attempting to convince you that you should homeschool or homestead.

But it will challenge you to live a countercultural life, rooted in God’s Word and marked by the Holy Spirit—a life surrendered to God’s plan rather than your own ideas of what life should look like.

Through biblical principles, relatable stories, and practical strategies, The Faithful Homestead encourages us to faithfully raise our kids for the Kingdom, not the culture. No matter if you’re homeschooling or public schooling, homesteading or apartment living, living on a farm or in the city, this book challenges us to raise kids who live boldly for Jesus.
