HEY GUYS!
Much to my reluctance I am making this video. I did not want to make this at all, but I am doing so because so many of you asked me to. I am making this video strictly to let you all know my thoughts and opinions on the religious side of this curriculum and the recent controversy surrounding it. These are my thoughts feelings and opinions, and you are free to have yours.
I am keeping the comments open: however, I will be closely monitoring them, because my channel is not a place of malice, hatred, or arguing! Thanks for watching the longest video ever, I had a lot to say.

Amen 🙌🏻 I’ve been shocked by the controversy surrounding this!

This Gathered Nest it’s so shocking! I can’t believe in 2018 people are against a curriculum purely because of the creator’s faith. It has nothing to do with truly what is in the curriculum. People are purely upset with Jenny as a person. It’s terrible. Ridiculous!

Hey Angela. I follow you. I think if you knew full history and background on the Mormon church you'd get it. I live in an area 99% Mormon, and it is a cult. Their Jesus is not ours. If you want some resources to read yourself, I can recommend some!

Absolutely agree with you! I'm on a Christian Homeschooling Large Family group on Facebook and every time TGATB comes up people say, "Oh, No way. The creator is Mormon. I don't want to support a Mormon business." The second I ask those questions- Do you give your money to Target? Starbucks? Walmart? Disney? Chipotle? Any and all money spent at those businesses and countless more go to people who vehemently disagree with your beliefs yet you support them- People get angry. 'That's different. Those are corporations. It's different.' Nope. It's not at all. They all started as small businesses by people of all beliefs and the money still goes back to thousands, if not millions of people who disagree with their patrons. If a product is good, buy it. It doesn't mean you're agreeing with their beliefs, just that you appreciate a product they create. The insanity over this topic is mind-boggling. And no, I'm not LDS- also "non-denominational," "born-again" Christian. Thanks for having the courage to put it out there.

Creating Essence excellent point, I KNOW there are accepted “Christian “ curriculum that believe I’m a type of heretic because I’m nondenominational..... I still use their products, I serve a big God, and tools I use won’t stop him....😅

It's even more ironic because it is a lay church. There are no professional pastors etc. who are getting paid. They also have a massive worldwide humanitarian organization which is accessible to everyone no matter their faith.

I’m so excited to see this video! I am not LDS but we are choosing to use TGATB for science and high school this upcoming year. If I were to see anything I didn’t agree with religiously, in this curriculum or any other, it’s my job as the parent to use that as a teaching moment with my kids. I don’t know of any curriculum out there where I would agree 100% with everything the creator’s believe. Thanks so much for this video!

Thank you! Very well said! I, too, have been blown away by the way people are getting all up in arms about this curriculum. I started using the free language arts program and shared about it on my blog several months ago, and as a non denominational Christian, I wasn’t aware Jenny was LDS, nor did I find anything in the curriculum that leaned toward any denomination. I had some questions about it, and seriously, this is not the hill to die on. There are so many greater things to worry about!

Amen Ashlee! I have heard about the controversy. I researched what I wanted to use and picked The Good and The Beautiful for it's #1 strong academics, #2 Charlotte Mason influence (planned for me), and #3 faith-based. My family is strong and solid in our faith so I wasn't concerned about another faith's influence (which there is none!). My kids are learning SO much this year and are catching up beautifully to where they need to be. I couldn't be happier! Thanks for having a backbone- that is why I have followed you for so long girl!!!!

I could understand the controversy IF it was geared to LDS only. But it isnt. I LOVE rod and staff. It is written by Menonites. I do not share their beliefs, but that hasn't caused me to throw out the good content.

I was homeschooled and now I’m homeschooling my kids again after they have been in school for 3 years I love the good and the beautiful I have a special needs child and this has been amazing for my child I also live in Miami where my kids are exposed to everything here there is no bubble here lol. I am also nondenominational Christian I love your Chanel. I actually enjoy telling other homeschool moms that the curriculum is from a LDS lady just so I can see their face lol. I was so scared when I saw the title of this video because I was so excited about this curriculum and I was so scared that something was actually wrong with it my heart dropped but I’m glad you still enjoy it.

When I was searching google another video came up about why a particular Christian mama had stopped using the curriculum and I watched her video as well. You made some great points and I appreciate you taking the time to put this video out there for mamas like me who are trying to make this decision. My husband and I are excited to get our nearly 4 year old the preschool curriculum!

Love your new bedspread! I see both sides of this discussion regard TGATB curriculum. It doesn’t have doctrine in the lessons from the stuff I’ve had, but I do see the “where my money is going” side. At the same time, I borrow library books and informational materials from authors whom I don’t know their faiths, personally. I’m still praying through this one. ❤️

I love your heart in this video. You spoke exactly how I feel about where we draw our lines. As a born again Christian, I made the choice to use TGATB , because I feel the Lord gives us the ability to discern and to take the "good" from it and not just chuck the whole thing. Thank you for sharing.

Great video. I’m not LDS but I have friends who are like my family that are. I’m well versed in the religion for a non member and it boggles my mind why people are so hung up on Jenny being LDS. As all have said and the curriculum shows there is no LDS in the curriculum. She gives supplements for free to LDS members that do want the tie in. What other curriculum does that? Thankful for people like you who see the company for what it is and not discriminate against it. 🙌🏻 *We’re using History, Science and LA from TGTB!!!

Kelsey B Amen girl, I wrote earlier Christians should be inspired by the level of commitment I see in LDS community, they truly love God and one another. No I’m not LDS, yes there are some aspects of the religion that don’t jive with me, but I can say that of EVERY denominational sect, lol, including the church I actually attend.

We recently started using TGTB (because I couldn't wait til fall) and we LOVE it!!! Only six lessons into History 1, but I've read through the curriculum and couldn't be happier! Our almost 8 year old never cared about history, but now she asks to do her lessons! Your excitement about TGTB was contagious. I hopped online, researched, and ordered as soon as I could. Amazing doesn't begin to cover it. I was struggling to find something until you shared with us. For that, I thank you. 💕

Your honest thoughts and opinions are greatly appreciated! I’m a Catholic and loving the curriculum. I am also grateful for the people who worked so hard to put it together, and for the opportunity to download for free, which is very generous. I am adding other faith based items to supplement, so my kids can learn what I feel they need to learn in regards to our faith. I hope the negativity doesn’t discourage the company, because we need them to stick around. Blessings 😉

I was turned on to tg&tb by you Ashlee, but I also did my own research b4 I bought it. I knew that Jenny was LDS b4 I bought it. I am not LDS nor do I agree with the belief, but I still liked the curriculum and didn't notice any sneaky religious notes in the curriculum as of yet. That being said i will continue to closely monitor and just simply not teach that part. Easy peasy!

This curriculum has been a true blessing to our homeschool!

Right on! Nicely said. Many are overly offended now days and almost appear shocked when someone doesn't believe or have the same convictions as themselves. I think sometimes people think if they say something loud enough and enough times others might change their mind, choices, even religion. That's not how it works obviously. We are looking forward to trying TGTB this year for the first time. Yes, I've done my due diligence and prayerfully considered our choices :)

Thank you for the video. Homeschool curriculum is very personal for what works for your family. I love to hear about different curriculum, but at the end of the day, it is what works best for my children. I have always felt that you are an open honest person who also chooses what is best for your family. Homeschool allows us to make these decisions and no one should be criticized for choosing what is best for their family.

I'm LDS, and I just wanted to say thank you for this. It's hard to be so discriminated against in the homeschooling community. It was one of the most surprising things to be about about homeschooling, to be quite honest. So thank you for having the courage to say what you think is right in spite of the backlash you've dealt with. I hope with time the Christian world will stop looking at members of the LDS faith through a lens of fear and prejudice, and realize that we are just people trying our best to follow Christ.

Thanks for this video. It was worth while doing. One clarification is that not all the curriculum is available for free online, just a couple of levels of LA, not science or history. I have used 1 level of LA, using history now and have used several science units. I haven't noticed any doctrinal influencing material. But something small in history one day made me think 'that was a political statement'. As you stated we all need to think things through and decide for ourselves, no matter who or what company makes the curriculum.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, for this video!!! I've watched several negative videos recently on why so-and-so isn't using TG&TB, and it was so disheartening to see them slam this amazing curriculum because they disagree with something that's not even in the curriculum. I've used lots of curriculum over the past 13 years that I've not agreed with every belief of the author, but found the curriculum to meet our needs and be something beneficial to our homeschool. One video touted that because of their platform people look to this person to lead them and they couldn't keep using TG&TB because of Jenny's being LDS, and even though nothing was in the curriculum and it was working great for their kids, they were switching. Not only that but then made a video slamming TG&TB. It was very sad to see. As Christians we should be promoting things that bring out the good and beautiful, teach kids to be discerning, teach concepts well, make a homeschool mom's life easier, and point our kids to God....all of which this curriculum does. THANK you Ashley, for speaking your heart on this topic, and speaking up for a really great curriculum! Love your video!! 😊

I want to thank you so very much for this video. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day and we are starting homeschool this year with my little one. We joined a Christian homeschooling community that I am so excited about. It was recommended to me by my community director that we look into using TG&TB for the other portions of curriculum that we would need to get because it was written by someone of my faith. As I was looking into it and watching videos of how it was implemented and what people thought of the curriculum I found a lot of criticism towards Jenny and the materials because she is a member of my church, people not wanting to purchase from her or not wanting to appear to be associated with her because of her faith. I started to feel a pit in my stomach and a tremendous fear, as we had not met all the moms in our Christian homeschool group, that we might not be well received by some, that maybe it was more common for Christians to not want to associate with us than I had thought. I want to thank you for helping me to feel a reassurance that we will be just fine. Even if not everyone is ok with us I received a greater trust and confidence that as we love others I know we will find others that love us too. I know this video was an answer to my prayers. Thank you for YOUR defending love and support. I so appreciate it!
@krivard23
@krivard23 6 лет назад
Thanks for sharing this hard video. Quick background on me, I am not LDS, I have used a variety of HS curriculum, and decided (partly based on your videos & others) to try TG&TB this year. I do not strictly pick curriculum based on our faith with the exception of our main religion curriculum. Why? Because I look at the content of the curriculum for each subject and decide what I think will work best for my kids. After doing Sonlight & others that require many different books for LA, I loved the thought of everything being in 1 book. So, I did my research. I watched review videos, looked at the curriculum itself online, prayed, and ordered it. And I’m really excited for us to get started with it this month. I was very shocked when several RU-vidrs came out recently to say they changed for the reasons they did. Now, I totally agree with you - everyone has a choice - they do, you do, I do, etc. I do not share their reservations, but that’s ok. I don’t have to. I am still going to use what I purchased, and I’m just as excited as I was before all this started. As always, I enjoyed your video and am looking forward to the next one!

Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts. I think people are focusing on all the wrong things with this curriculum. You’re not going to find another curriculum that’s as comprehensive and thorough while still being as inexpensive as TGTB. And I have no reason to defend them bc we’ve only used the PreK stuff so far, but I looked over every inch of the free levels and there’s nothing in them that’s cause for this much alarm. I appreciate Jenny Phillips and her heart behind providing curriculum that seeks to foster love and kindness in our kids. ❤️

I am not LDS either, I knew that Jenny is before I purchased, yet that didn't deter me after reviewing the curriculum. It's beautifully written and teaches Christian values I want my child to be learning...that ARE NOT taught in public school. I'm with you...this whole "issue" and controversy with TGATB just boggles my mind. I'm here to stay. lol I look forward to all your videos and feel like I have a friend in the homeschooling community. ❤️

There is so much I could say about this. First I have been out of touch while traveling with my family this month. When I reconnect I find people leaving this curriculum because of who made it not what is in it. I was concerned then I see what you have to say on the topic. It is a hard thing to address as it can be so emotional. You covered it very well. All I can add is thank you for standing up and in some way being counted. I also have a RU-vid channel and it boggles my brain when I hear people being called influencer. My channel is small but it is just a place to share, celebrate and be positive. Again thank you.

Thumbs up from me! I'm a Mormon (same religion as the creator of The Good and the Beautiful) and it amazes me how many fellow Christians are so eager to judge and attack us for our beliefs. We believe that Jesus Christ is the savior of the world and we cannot be saved without his grace--just like any other Christian believes. As with ALL Christians, we have doctrinal differences in our beliefs, but we all have Christ in common. We study the same Bible as you and want to be good, kind people--just like you. It's time for the world to stop hating each other for our religious beliefs. Remember LOVE THY NEIGHBOR? I don't live my life as the Amish, but I appreciate their devotion to their beliefs and recognize them as fellow believers. I don't recognize Saturday as the day of worship and rest, but I still appreciate the love for Christ the Seventh Day Adventists show. Catholics don't use birth control, but I recognize them as fellow Christians. We are all on the same team. I'm not saying differences between religious doctrinal differences don't matter, but I AM saying that we need to show brotherly/sisterly love for our fellow believers.

Thank you for this video! Thank you for being so professional about it. I agree with you. I chose the Good and the Beautiful because I watched your video. However, before I went and purchased the curriculum for myself I actually watched other utube videos and then read reviews AND I also talked to my husband about it and we downloaded it and looked it over! I am so excited to dive in! I think we need more people like you in this world! Like you said it is YOUR opinion. Keep doing what you are doing! I love your videos and I love how your not afraid to talk about praying and Jesus. I am nondenominational too! Keep up the great work! Your doing an amazing job raising those beautiful little ones!

What a wonderful video and I'm happy you did make it. Look at the fruit right? This curriculum has been wonderful for us and I love the content and the beautiful layout. We are a solid Christian family homeschooling 4 kiddos and this curriculum in my opinion demonstrates lovely Godly teaching. Where does one draw the line? Exactly! My thoughts expressed here fully. The fruit that this curriculum produces with regards to my children's life and even my life for it's ease of use and depth is AMAZING. For others to have a self righteous ideation sadly is their loss. I do however feel bad for those who look at other self claimed leaders , listen to their reviews/opinions and believe them and take it as gold without doing their own homework. It is their loss, I know but because of how much we love this curriculum, I think it's a pretty big one. I hope too that the bad publicity and controversy hasn't hurt Jenny's business. A bad tree cannot bear good fruit. This curriculum in my opinion is a good tree bearing good fruit! Thanks Ashlee

Thanks, Ashlee. I like your channel and thanks for making a tough video. My wife are solid in our faith and while I do like very much that your content stems from a Christian perspective, I really like the content you provide because it helps me appreciate and support my wife. We are going to start homeschooling this year for 2 of our 3 school age children. Accepting early on that I am to play a supporting role and that my own homeschooling experience was not good, I want to give my wife and family the support we need to make homeschooling right for our family. Karrie, (my wife) and I set our family on this path because we want great things for our kids and take seriously our vocation as parents. Many of our reasons are similar to yours in that video that you put up regarding your reasons for homeschooling and why you continue. We reached those conclusions through long and prayerful consideration. She feels overwhelmed at times with all of the options open to home schooling families and your videos help me by offering honest and real perspective, which in turn allows me to offer better advice and support to my wife. Our best to you and your husband, and thanks for letting us in on a little bit of your life.-Keith and Karrie.

Loved how you handled this topic. The reason many of us choose to homeschool is to have some control over the content that is taught to our children. There have been many times over the years where either I felt a topic was introduced too early or wasn't appropriate and I have simply skipped it or turned it into a teachable moment. You are going to find these types of situations regardless of the curriculum you are using. The choice to homeschool is a personal one and we need to respect how we choose to homeschool our children and focus on supporting one another as we endeavor to teach our children to be life long learners.

I am a big fan of your channel and love everything you stand for. I strongly support your stance here. It's a very basic and reasonable boundary that this is your channel, your personal platform for your own thoughts, a place where it is never appropriate to attack you over your beliefs or opinions. On a personal note, we are secular homeschoolers and have used a lot of curriculum or other material that doesn't align with our beliefs. If ever there is something too difficult to turn into a learning experience or work around in some way, we - as you said - simply turn the page. At worst, we can put it down and use something else, because no one is forcing us to work with it. NEVER would it even occur to me to attack the creator of the curriculum or the person whose recommendation became the reason I purchased it, even if I thought we had the same belief system or ethical standards. It is shocking to me that anyone has the gall or inclination to do so in this situation. I am not Christian or LDS, so some may think I have no business chiming in. However, I believe moral standards for how humans treat each other should (and do) transcend religious differences. You have a lot to offer the homeschool community and have helped many people just by sharing your journey. I hope this experience doesn't turn you away from what you've built here.

YES to pretty much everything you have said! The comments about not wanting to financially support an LDS person have blown my mind - JetBlue, Marriott, Lularoe, Franklin Covey, Sky West - these are all Mormon companies. We also have a lot of members that are lawyers, doctors, dentists, etc. Our prophet, Russel M. Nelson, helped to pioneer the first heart and lung bypass machine, and I believe performed the first open heart surgery using it. So if you've ever had a kid that needed open heart surgery you were in a way supporting a Mormon. Anyway...sorry to go off on a tangent, it's just so frustrating reading some of the comments regarding this curriculum and the LDS faith.

Exactly how I feel and I use an assortment of different curriculum but its my choice, my opinion. All we can do is what we feel is right for our own families and thats it without judgement on others. As you said just dont use it or buy it. You need do your own research and do whats right for your family. Love your videos always inspiring from such a strong woman

Oddly enough, one of the videos explaining why they were jumping ship....inspired me to buy it! 😂 The video that you referenced about the good reading material vs worldly reading material....I sat there with my eyes like 😳 and was like “I would LOVE this!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I totally agreed with the what the curriculum was saying (and I’m not uptight or a prude....but I had never considered that these CHILDREN books could possibly be less than “clean”). I have been eyeing up TG&TB for a long time and made some small purchases - but i finally placed my order for all my kids. Sold. I am a non denominational Christian and couldn’t find a thing wrong with the curriculum. Thank you SO much for making this video! I have followed you for a while and now feel more comfortable after reading the curriculum and seeing this video.

Thank you for being honest and sharing what works for your family. Some viewers need to understand what works for you may not work for them and that’s okay. God bless you guys in this new school year. Thanks for all the hs and fitness inspiration! 😉

As a SDA I am always looking for clean and pure material. Their book list is amazing and I appreciate a company going out of their way to tell me which books are good or not. Some of her staff are SDA along with other people of different faiths. So glad we can all use it .

We are devoted, sold out, fully dedicated followers of Christ Jesus who would be categorized as non denominational Christians. That said... we have prayed to the Lord about what curriculum to use and the Holy Spirit led us to The Good and The Beautiful! And we LOVE the enriching material from TGAB!!! It has been a God-send for sure, and our family couldn't be more grateful to have such treasures to teach. Plus, they're full of such good morals & values! We do not link ourselves up with mormon theology, as there is none of that in there from what we found. Simply enough, we just adore the curriculum. :)

Thank you for posting this! I've not seen this in person yet, just quick look throughs so far of the free portions (and I will be going through it more before using it for the kids, just as you both have suggested), but with all the drama about it, it made me leery...because of these 2 videos, I have decided to go ahead and use it for the LA for my 4 kids next year, which helps us immensely with it being free!

Thank you for this video. I have been surprised by the videos that are saying negative things about TG&TB as well. I’m also using it for our next school year and very excited about it. This summer I’ve been using a level with my daughter who struggles and we are loving it. I agree if you don’t like a lesson skip it. But I also like to take opportunities to talk to my kids about different views. We used a health curriculum this year that was very judgmental and legalistic in some ways and I took every opportunity to talk to my kids about what God says about some of the things presented in that curriculum. I’m happy to hear you stick by your choice of curriculum. Thank you!

I barely starting my homeschooling journey and I did make the research for the TGTB, even download level 1 to see what is all about! I knew the author was LDS and that didn’t change my decision. We still going to use the curriculum as a non domination Christian. This my honest opinion. If we looked at everything we read and everything we buy and consume daily, look into its background and we don’t agree with the creator of the products religion, those this mean that I’m not going to buy it ?? Nop! We are humans and we should encourage one another no matter of the race, religion, politics thoughts, nothing !!!! Ashlee, love your video and I do agree 100 percent with you!!!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the matter. I am new to homeschooling (as the Mom. I was homeschooled from 1st grade on) and have thought and prayed about what to use from the moment I found out I was pregnant with my first born. I now have a 3 yr old and 1 yr old and am at the point of starting at Pre-k level. I stumbled upon TGTB while researching other curriculum and instantly fell in love. I did as you suggested and downloaded the free one and read through it. And one of the first things I knew about it was the creator is Mormon (by her statement) and she strived to make a “faith based non denominational” curriculum that’s shows the love of God! And as a Baptist pastors daughter who attends a Calvary chapel church, I am still happy and in love with what she has created and plan to use it with all my children and would only stop if it no longer fit my families needs. Keep up the good work 😊 and I very much enjoy your channel and content.

Love it!! Thanks so much for responding to this silliness! I originally found out about The Good & The Beautiful because of you, and after wrestling with the decision and researching a LOT, I've decided to go with them for our 2nd grade year (starting next week!). Both my son and I are the most excited we've ever been to start our school year (I mean really, when your history program comes with a board game, does it get any better than that? :-) Shortly after purchasing the final piece of the curriculum, I saw the videos to which you refer that put the curriculum in a negative light. I couldn't agree more with your response, and love that you are willing to share your thoughts and opinions with all of us. So thanks! Oh, and I just have to throw this in there - I'm Catholic (grew up non-denominational Christian for the most part and became Catholic with my husband 4 years ago), and we're Christians too ;-) Lol, just had to add that. Thanks for continuing to share with all of us!
