Give the gift of RAR Premium.

The online community for mamas who want to teach from rest and raise kids who love to read.

What is RAR Premium?

RAR Premium is mentoring for Mama . . . and a book club for the whole family. 

Sarah’ mentoring program

What you get inside Premium:

  • Access to all Circle with Sarah Live Events & Retreats on Zoom
  • Sarah’s weekly private podcast (list to a sample below)

Family Book Club

It’s better than a curriculum. It’s a culture.

At RAR Premium, we believe the culture you create matters more than the curriculum you use.

When you focus on relationships, you form warm, memorable connections.

The icing on top? You raise kids who love to read.

I’m Sarah Mackenzie

As a busy mama of 6 (3 young adults, 3 still at home), I know it can be hard to harness the joy in the midst of all the doing. I also know it can be really hard to trust your gut when you’re making decisions about your kids!

The key is connection: connection with Christ, connection with our books and ideas, and connection with each other.

I created RAR Premium because I wanted to make meaningful and lasting connections with my kids, and I wanted to become the peace-filled, joyful mama I’m called to be. 

“I wasn’t sure joining would be worth it, but the deeper connections our family has made have definitely been worth the investment!”

Katie

Joining Premium has been the best homeschool decision I’ve made. I’ve gained an overwhelming wash of peace and self-confidence.

Jennifer

“I used to worry about inappropriate content in new children’s books. Now my kids and I are discovering beautifully written current books that inspire us.”

Frequently Asked Questions

At checkout, you choose where to send the gift (to your own email address so you can give the gift yourself, or to the gift recipient’s email—we can deliver it for you). You also choose when that gift should deliver.

The subscription does not start until the recipient activates it. Once activated, they will have instant access to everything RAR Premium right away and for the entire length of their gifted subscription.

Nope, gift subscriptions don’t renew automatically. You’ll only be charged once. Once the gift subscription has expired, the recipient will have the option to purchase more time in RAR Premium themselves.

Yes, you can (and won’t they love you for it!). When a current Premium member receives their access code (sent after you make the purchase), they will be given instructions to add the additional months to their existing membership. Our support team is always available if they need assistance!

Online events in RAR Premium are recorded and made available as a replay within a few days. If they’re unable to join us, they’ll be able to watch the replay at a time that works for their schedule. (Occasionally we host mama events with members on-screen, which are not recorded.)

When they redeem their gift, the recipient will get immediate access to dozens of previously recorded workshops, classes, Family Book Club Guides, and videos in our on-demand library.

Members have kids of all ages. The program is set up like a feast, so families take whatever parts are best for their kids’ ages.

We choose books for our Family Book Club that appeal to a wide range of ages because we believe that families connect when whole families share the read-aloud experience.

Our resources offer guidance for scaling up or down the content to meet the needs of kids’ ages and skill levels.

Mamas, of course, are a very important part of the equation, so we’ve got a few things for her, too. Our life-giving Circle with Sarah program and Mama Book Clubs are created with the busy homeschooling mom in mind.

Indeed, we do! Every member video replay is available to view with closed captions.

Choose whether you want to purchase a 3- or 12-month subscription, and start the checkout process. We’ll ask you who to send the gift to and when to deliver it as you’re checking out!
