Our mission is simple:
To teach families how to craft purposeful stories that will inspire, encourage, and impact the next generation in a way that makes Jesus smile.
About Pathfinder
We’re so glad you found us! At Pathfinder Press (formerly Talya Press), we’re a family-owned publishing house with a simple mission: to help families find their path to creating stories with purpose. We believe that every family has a story to tell. Whether you’re homeschooling, building a family legacy, or simply love the power of storytelling, we’re here to guide you on that journey.

Our Journey
Pathfinder Press was born out of our own homeschooling experience. As a family with five children, we’ve always valued the power of stories. In fact, we believe that the ultimate storyteller is Jesus, who spoke in parables that transformed hearts wherever He went.
Stories have always been at the heart of our home, from dinner table conversations and bedtime reads to the books we write and publish together. Our homeschool, Pathfinder Academy, has been a place where our own children have grown and learned through stories, both the ones we read and the ones we create.
Now, through Pathfinder Press, we’re sharing that same love of learning and storytelling with other families.
Our goal is to equip families like yours with easy-to-follow writing strategies so you can transform your ideas into a children’s book manuscript. One that’s ready for print and ready to inspire! Whether you’re looking to write your first book or you want to teach your children how to craft their own stories, we’re here to help you!
Our Inspiration
Our name, Pathfinder Press, is inspired by the following Bible verses:
Proverbs 3:6
In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths.
Proverbs 4:11-12
I have taught you the way of wisdom; I have led you in the paths of uprightness. When you walk, your step will not be hampered, and if you run, you will not stumble.
Psalm 119:105
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.
Join Us on the Path
We invite you to join us on this exciting adventure of creativity, learning, and storytelling. Whether you’re here to learn how to write your own children’s book, find inspiration for your next project, or browse books created by our family, we hope you’ll find your way with Pathfinder Press. Together, we can share stories that honor God, uplift families, and inspire the hearts of children everywhere.
