AC Visions

Teaching and training children at home involves helping them discover their giftedness and tending the soil of their hearts. We are essentially preparing them for the harsh realities of this fallen and broken world and to be open and ready to receive the message of the gospel. The goal is for our children to go out into the world, use the gifts and talents God has blessed them with to bring Him glory, and bear good fruit. Getting in tune with your children's unique quirks and modeling openness to the gospel message are tangible ways we lead our children and set them on God-honoring paths.

Episode 11 is a transition conversation from toddlers to teenagers. AC shares what she and Hubby envisioned for their relationship with their teenage son and what saved them during the disrespectful teenage season. Layering the learning starts at a young age and does not stop once you're an empty nester. As iron sharpens iron, our children need us through their teenage years and beyond!

AC is back for season three of ACv Family Talk!! She's kicking off the season premiere on the topic of wandering eyes. When we lose focus on God's design for our lives, marriage, family, and home life, we can easily find ourselves aimlesslyWANDERING.Then weWONDERhow {pineapple!} we get caught up in the sin that so easily entangles us.

The wise woman builds her house, but the foolish woman tears it down with her own hands. AC only has pearls on this season finale of ACv Family Talk by discussing the attributes of a wise wife through the lens of the wise and beautiful Abigail in 1st Samuel chapter 25.

Children thrive when we, as parents, set a healthy tone for the day and there is a rhythm in their activities. Similarly, adults thrive when we understand our purpose and the rhythm of our lives runs smoothly. God has so uniquely gifted and wired us to complement each other within community and in our relationships. AC offers a fresh perspective on making more intentional decisions to submit to God’s design for life, family, and ministry.

The court of public option is nothing compared to the little eyes and ears at home. Children take their cues on how to communicate and what is appropriate adult behavior from what is modeled at home. AC offers a helpful perspective on how she intentionally capitalizes on the exposure of her children's ever-watchful eyes and ears at home.

God has called us to practice what is true. It begins with being honest about who we are in relation to the knowledge of who God is. We can not walk in truth or prepare our children for the realities of this fallen world if we, as parents, are submitted to and walking in a faithless and doubtful posture.

A wise woman builds her house. The foolish woman tears it down with her own hands. On the topic of making an impact in today's culture, AC shares what she has learned about the power of influence and how she chooses to use the works of her hands to make the greatest impact in her life, family, and the people that God brings into her sphere of influence.

Episode 14 is a continuation of the previous episode on isolation. The actions we take before and during what AC calls the mental health storms determine how favorable the outcome will be. Depression and anxiety were storms that are now testimonies that AC is eager to share to inspire and encourage others.

Physical and mental isolation can often appear as though we've been abandoned or perhaps trigger feelings of regression to a season when we were not the best versions of ourselves. AC recounts two occasions of mental and physical isolation that God used as a reminder to rest, revealing its benefits and the protection that isolation can offer.

We cannot serve God and mammon. Understanding for ourselves and teaching our children about God’s economy is Economic 101 for the believer. God’s perspective on wealth, debt, wages, earnings, taxes, and forgiveness is crucial to knowing who really sustains us.

Back for a brand new season of the ACv Family Talk podcast, Season 2 kicks off with a fresh message on the importance of cultivating more of a producer mindset that yields good fruit in its season vs. fruitless and enslaved patterns of consumer-based living. There is a comparison and contrast throughout Scripture that God wants to teach His children to strengthen us and for us to be able to take hold of the blessings He’s prepared for us.

Obeying God's Law and direction for our lives, home, and family are the boundaries God has established to rescue us from the power of sin, protect us from folly, preserve us, and bless us. In a culture that views boundaries as unnecessary and boring, believers are called to be set apart for His glory, intimately familiar with "boring boundaries," and be thankful for how He loves and cares for us.

AC wraps up season one of the ACv Family Talk podcast with a special focus on her ministry at home as a wife, mother, and home educator. Topics include how AC's ministry began at 19 years of age, the complementary design of men and women in marriage, and learning what it takes to grow and sustain a ministry at home organically.

AC recaps how God’s people failed to take hold of an inheritance He’s promised those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. She makes a modern-day application of how marriages and the family unit fall into generational patterns of rebellion and brokenness. We fail to recognize patterns of dysfunction, and subsequently, we are unable to choose differently. It all circles back to a choice; be enslaved to generational dysfunction or be chain breakers.

AC outlines a few of life's inspired "AC Says" moments and what she's learned. She dives deeper into what is happening on the entrepreneurial side of her life as a busy mom at home and how the Fruit of the Spirit is the basis for getting back to the basics of faith and family.

AC recaps their 2022 Clark Family Homeschool adventures around the country and unpacks a fun way to teach your children the Full Armor of God. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, she explains the importance of training children to be warriors, equipped and capable for the battles ahead.

AC sets the tone for the ACv Family Talk podcast by introducing herself, the vision for the podcast, and an inspirational message on being courageous. There are talking points from her recently self-published book,AC Pearls Writing a Legacy, and of course, some {Pineapple} puns!

Subscribe so you don't miss out on the conversation coming your way each week!

Our children are constantly communicating their likes and interests. We as parents often neglect to get in tune with how they are naturally wired and focus on nurturing the gifts God has already put inside of them. This episode focuses on studying children so we, as parents, can better guide them toward God’s purpose for their lives.

Some seasons of life are more challenging than others. The extraordinary calling of child-rearing can make the days, months, and years almost impossible to manage. AC gives an alternative perspective to the struggle by offering a practical solution. Embrace the Suck, rediscover, and reframe God’s purpose for our lives.

Understanding the root of generational curses and how they wreck the family legacy should be an immediate priority to know, uproot, and purge in our lifetime. As followers of Christ, we have to do the work to discover the source of dysfunction and heal what's broken in our family. How we choose to live, function in marriage, and what we teach our children is our testimony. We are witnesses to how God desires to work in and through our family and give future generations a better inheritance.
