Teach Them Diligently
Hi there! We’re David and Leslie Nunnery. We are the homeschool parents of 4, three of whom have graduated and moved on to further their education at the college level.
For the past 10 years, we’ve served homeschool families through the ministry God gave us by producing Teach Them Diligently homeschool events, writing several books and journals, and creating courses. All of which was born out of a conviction that God has called us to teach our children diligently, and to instill in them a love of God and people and to prepare them well to walk through whatever doors God opens for them in the days ahead.
We look forward to connecting with you through the year and seeing you onsite at Teach Them Diligently very soon!

If you’re a homeschool family, you’ve found the right place! We invite you to join us each week on the Teach Them Diligently Podcast, where we’ll discuss a wide-range topics related to Biblical Parenting and Excellent Home Education to help you strengthen your family in every area of life. You have a high calling! Together, let’s explore how to fulfill that well. You can find even more resources and experiences for Christian homeschool families like yours at TeachThemDiligently.net
In the final episode of our Homeschool Dad Series, David Nunnery sits down for a heart-to-heart with David Mills about a topic that doesn’t get talked about enough: the vital role of the father in the home.
Let’s be honest—it’s easy for dads to feel like “the principal” or just the “financial provider.” But God has called us to be so much more. David Nunnery and David Mills dive deep into what it actually looks like to lead your family spiritually and educationally without feeling overwhelmed. From practical ways to engage in your kids’ daily learning to the life-changing power of mentorship and finding your “tribe” through the Men’s Alliance, this episode is packed with the encouragement every dad needs.
Men’s Challenge:
Tonight at dinner, you’re the moderator. Instead of asking “How was school?”, ask these two questions:
“How did you see God working in your day?”
“What is one thing you learned today that surprised you?”
Key Takeaways:
- Healthy men create healthy families, and healthy families create a healthy country.
- Men should not outsource their children’s education or spiritual growth.
- Homeschooling can happen in everyday situations, not just at a desk.
- Dads should ask their wives how they can support them in homeschooling.
- Dads should equip their kids with answers to tough questions about faith.
- Engaging in conversations with kids can happen naturally during daily activities.
