Classical Christian Education

In a world where educational philosophies are constantly evolving, it is essential that we ground our approach to education in the unchanging truth of God’s Word. Scripture is the ultimate guide for educating our children, with a clear calling to prepare them, not just for this life, but most importantly, for the life to come. In light of this, this series is intended to help parents, schools, and churches understand and implement an education that is faithful to the Word of God and proven throughout history. The lessons in this series advocate for and explain the meaning and purpose of an approach to education, known as Classical Christian Education. While there can be nuances to this approach in different cultures and backgrounds, the desire in these lessons is to emphasize common foundational elements that we trust can be taken and applied to every context. We hope these lessons will be an encouragement to you in prayerfully seeking to fulfill the God-given calling to raise our children in the fear and admonition of the Lord.

After all that has been discussed in previous lessons, it is now time to give some attention to the practical aspects of implementing Classical Christian Education today. Everyone’s circumstances are unique to them, and situations vary, but with the counsel provided in this lesson, parents and teachers will be equipped and ready to begin this worthy pursuit.
