Public Schools Have Failed Us: A Call for Christian Education

About this episode

Could the very state-run school system designed to educate our children be subverting the core values that Christian families hold dear? Kevin Love, headmaster at St. Brendan's Classical Christian Academy in Ogden, UT, helps navigate the treacherous waters of public school indoctrination, where the undertow of secular humanism and relativism threatens to pull our youth away from Christian beliefs.

Kevin and co-host Eric Conn talk about Ephesians 6 and Deuteronomy 6, asking a pivotal question: "What is the point of Christian education?" We also talk about Alan Bloom's prescient observations on the rise of relativism, which illuminates our discussion as we sound the alarm for Christian parents to take decisive action. The call to arms is clear: it's time to consider educational alternatives like St Brendan's Classical Christian Academy or Christian homeschooling to safeguard our children's faith and values.

As we press forward, we tackle the intricate dance between educational influence and cultural impacts, taking cues from Bloom's "The Closing of the American Mind." The stakes are high in this battle for the hearts and minds of the next generation, and our strategy involves intervening before college, shaping the perspectives of our youth to appreciate the true, the good, and the beautiful.
