There are many who wonder whether a Christian school is necessary or worth it. At FRCS, we obviously have strong opinions on the subject, and you can read about many of them here and in blog posts here. Every once in a while, though, you might want to read about thoughts from others on the topic. This blog post crossed our inbox this past week, and we thought it too good not to share with you.
A snippet from the blog post:
“…the phrase ‘Christian education’ should encompass more than the study of religion. Unfortunately, many professing Christians have too narrow a definition. Christian education, they think, takes place only in Sunday School, during Bible studies, or at home during family devotions, but this view is too limited. The Apostle Paul exhorts us to ‘take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ’ (2 Corinthians 10:5). St. Augustine writes that ‘every good and true Christian should understand that wherever he may find truth, it is the Lord’s.’ Reflecting the same conviction, John Calvin declares, ‘We shall neither reject the truth itself, nor despise it whenever it shall appear, unless we wish to dishonor the Spirit of God.’ Proper Christian education relates God’s Word to every aspect of life.”
