About Joel & Esther

Authors | Homeschoolers | Homesteaders

Becoming who we are has been a journey of many twists and turns and fine-tuning as we’ve moved through different adventures and seasons of life.

We live on a 5-acre homestead in East Central Minnesota with our four children and Esther’s parents where we’re working to build a future for our kids and becoming more self-sufficient. Come visit us at The Jubilee Homestead where we offer farm camping and space for outdoor weddings and events.

Several years ago, the Lord put a story in Joel’s heart and The Last Patriots series was born. Shortly after its release in March of 2021, we were privileged to be interviewed on TBN’s Praise Show with our first book, ARCHANGEL: The Last Patriots. Late in 2021, we decided to write a story for our younger readers and the Young American Adventures was born.
