Marla Hill

Marla Hill is a follower of Jesus Christ, a business entrepreneur, married to the love of her life, Brian Hill, and is the homeschool mother of five “world changers”: Holden, Heston, Brianna, Brayden and Sienna. She enjoys the risk-taking adventure of finding an idea to serve others, taking it to the marketplace, trusting God and working hard to make it take flight. From the beginning of their marriage, Brian and Marla have worked together to make the world better, both in the marketplace as well as their home. She feels blessed and challenged by Brian’s philosophy to live as a “steward” of all that God has entrusted to their care for the benefit of the next generation. In fact, it has been Marla’s childhood dream, birthed from the teachings of her public-school teacher, who instilled innate value and worth in her through sharing the vision of the founding forefathers’ ideals that all people were made in the image of God and “all men are created equal”. Learning these principals awakened a belief in her that she could do all things through Christ, that nothing was impossible when the Lord grants you a dream. Taking those faith-risks in the marketplace became her “testing ground” of trusting God.

Over the past 30 years, troubled by the fast moral decay of our country and its schools, she decided to step off the frontline of the marketplace to accept the responsibility of raising her children and teaching them herself of these God-given values. This brought a humbling journey of studying many curriculums and learning methods to accommodate the varied needs of her high energy and slow-to-read learners. One of the main principals she learned as a school teacher is that the child's academic development is directly tied to their own internal drive and desire to “want” to learn. She believes this begins with the knowledge that they are worthy, valuable and equal to every other human being and there is nothing that they can’t achieve when they trust and believe in God.

Intrigued at the fast pace of bold Marxist ideologies prevalent in the public schools, she began to study the methods of this advance and how America went from teaching the American dream of accepting responsibility, work hard, dream big and take a risk to that of a timid, fear-based, victim mentality that chooses entitlements over creativity and ingenuity. Her legal education has given her insights to solutions that are out of the norm, and her childhood dream of standing with America's forefathers has been ignited by the courage of Governor Stitt and many other leaders to step into the fight and be the “turnaround” that our state and country needs. It would be her privilege and honor to serve our country, the great state of Oklahoma and the State Superintendent, Ryan Walters, to become the example to America of how to invest into our nation’s most precious commodity, our youth, and watch them fly to the top.

Thank you for your time and consideration. With God’s help, we can do this together.
