In February 2011 and again in August 2011, I had the amazing opportunity to speak at
Heart of the Matter Online's Homeschool Conference.
With that, a fire was lit in my heart to encourage homeschooling families!
It is my desire to continue to share with other families what I have learned on this wonderful journey of home educating.
I have a passion for simplifying and encouraging others to put God first in all they do.
If you have a moms group, homeschooling group, conference, or church group looking for a presentation, please contact me. I would love to speak to your group!

About Karen:
Karen DeBeus is new to the speaking world, but is so excited to share her ideas about simplifying our lives and focusing on God. She loves all things simple and yearns for simpler times. Her family dreams of traveling across the country in an RV someday…to enjoy the world God created without any fancy entertainment…just the view from the window, with her family all together…
Karen has been married for 11 years to the love of her life and has 4 children.
God called her to homeschool when her youngest was about to enter kindergarten. After thinking “I could NEVER do THAT,” God had other plans…She obeyed the call and is now, not only loving homeschooling, she is passionate about educating others about homeschooling and encouraging families along the way.
Karen also assists her husband at their church where he is the High School Youth Coordinator. They are active in their church and hope to pursue further ministry opportunities as God leads.
Karen writes for Heart of the Matter Online monthly. She also writes for her blog Simply Living…for Him where her goal is to encourage families, moms, and individuals, to put God first in all they do. Simplifying is about getting back to the basics and reducing the physical clutter in our lives, as well as lessening “mental clutter.”
