Mr. Kevin Swanson

Talk: Creation, Evolution, and the Genesis of the Christian Home School Movement in America

Date: December 10th, 7:00pm

Our next meeting will be held on December 10, 2010 at Bethlehem Lutheran Chapel, 2100 Wadsworth in Lakewood, at 7:00 pm.  We are delighted to have as our speaker, Kevin Swanson of the Christian Home Educators of Colorado (CHEC), where RMCF operates a booth during their annual conference in June each year.  

Mr. Swanson’s Topic will be “Creation, Evolution, and the Genesis of the Christian Home School Movement in America.”

Kevin Swanson was himself home schooled at the beginning of the movement in the 1960's, graduating from his home school in 1981.  His father joined the Institute for Creation Research in the early 1960's, and chose home schooling as a means of inculcating a biblical worldview in his children.  Now, Kevin continues his father's legacy as a leader in the present-day home education movement in America. 

Mr. Swanson has a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering and worked in engineering and corporate management for ten years prior to joining Christian Home Educators of Colorado as the Executive Director in the late 1990's, where he served in that capacity until August 2009.  He now serves as a director of CHEC and hosts the world’s largest daily home school radio program, called "Generations." 

Mr. Swanson has authored numerous books including, “the Second Mayflower”, and “Upgrade, the Ten Secrets for the Best Education for your Child.”

With his wife Brenda, they home school five children out on the eastern plains of Colorado.
