Thank you for covering this! We are in a battle for hearts and minds! I am a proud teacher at the new Highlands Latin School in Greenville S.C. It matters what you think!
Thank you for bringing the light. My wife is the campus director for the HLS campus in Santa Clarita, California, and they are many of ladies from our Chuch and other churches faithfully teaching in our Campus. Christian education and homeschool are being held as enemies by the state of California specially by far left liberals politicians from the school districts, all the way to the Governor office. But faithfully and by the Grace of God our Classical Christian education and different homeschool options are still standing in a very dark and secular state. I hope one day they be able to realize how rich and beneficial is Christian Classical education for all children.
Yes and also when I was a student in public schools in the 60's we still had devotions at the beginning of the school day. We read Scripture and prayed. Now I'm not advocating that we reintroduce it but that is just how far we have come. As it becomes more opposed to the western world view and Christianity, I think "public school" should change its name. It's no longer "public".
I grew up in school during the 1960-1971! God was honored. Both my parents are retired school teachers during that era. We are now living in Psalms 14 and 53 and Romans 1. Grandma now and my daughters have placed their children in Christian Education !!! God is faithful 😊
Don’t forget the new Catholic schools such as the G.K. Chesterton Academies that are being founded in reaction not only to the problem-ridden public schools, but also out of concern about the lack of a solid Catholic identity or left-leaning ideological capture of Catholic schools.
We are in a fight against an evil, a darkness so dark it has blined the whole world. Good has always been a light to our souls ,when doubt became a part of how we understand our Holy Father's Will and our existence for life doesn't incorporate God's guidance life will demand darkness and the precious Light that gave purpose towards Salvation and eternity will take a back seat along with Christ Jesus and Grace and Mercy will never enlighten the doors of sinners any longer.Amen proverbs 3:3-6 Matthew 6-21.
What side are you on, though? The side that has reduced Christianity to a political talking point? Advocacy for Donald has done immeasurable damage to the witness of the church - the church is now more than ever associated with cynical claims of virtue while it sacrifices all credibility to further culture war goals.
My oldest is in 5th grade and in public school. We live in a very conservative area, but I realize that's not a guarantee and that liberals tend to flock to the public schools and school boards no matter where you are. What should I do at this point? I worry that pulling him out without specific reasons and making him "start over" when it comes to friends would also be damaging.
We do hate the education that teaches men to be abusers. We do hate the education that worships the powerful and the wealthy. We do hate the education that treats Christianity as a culture war talking point and not a call to take up a cross. We hate it because it is the ways of the world, not the ways of Christ.
I am a relatively young man, and I am unfortunately ignorant of what you mean by classical teaching or the classics. Would it be possible for you to expound on that a little more and recommended resources for those who wish to look into this type of learning?
So what if Pete Rose lied, gambled and was sexually immoral? “We are not electing a choir boy” or a pastor. Does character matter for a public figure who made baseball more fun? This is a multifaceted parable, indeed. Mr. Mohler, do you see how you have lost moral ground to make judgments about anyone’s character?
Doesn't a classical education teach a lot of Greek and Roman philosophy? Philosophy which is non-Christian? And usually very misogynistic? I wouldn't mind learning it to be truthful but just know what is forming children's minds.

@@reginaford8575those who read Romans 1 without reading Romans 2 are missing the point.

Christian classical education: "Saving Western Civilization one student at a time"
“Western civilization” is not Christ’s.
Is Western Civilization worth saving?
It gave us those that use the church as little more than a political talking point.

Pete Rose's sins brought dire consequences. Grace doesn't come from MLB, but Christ alone.
Say hi to Douglas Wilson.

Homeschooling!!
There are many Homeschooling organizations in each local area. No worries about being isolated..

I would strongly recommend getting enrolled in the free online courses at Hillsdale College. You will find answers to your questions 😊
@@reginaford8575and a lot of nonsense right wing propaganda.
Hillsdale literally sold out years ago.

When they elect pastors they apply the same criteria anyway.

I hope Kentuckians will vote "NO" on Amendment 2. What the government funds the government controls.
Still first.
