Kelly, I love this!!Reminds me of a quote by Voddie Baucham Jr, from Family Driven Faith along those same lines: I would never sggeust that everyone should educate his or her children the same way we educate ours. Second, I don?t want to make it that easy. I want you to think about what the Bible has to say on the subject and wrestle with the decision you have to make. That being said, let?s look at some key biblical passages and their implications. Proverbs 1:7 is foundational to our discussion. Solomon tells us, ?the fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge? (cf. Job 28:28; Psalm 111:10; Proverbs?s 9:10; 15:33; Ecclesiastes 12:13). In other words, our educational choice has to be based on the fact that God cannot and must not be ignored in the process. Any educations system that denies the existence, preeminence, and primacy of God is in violation of this biblical principle and is detracting from, rather than contributing to, the discipleship process.
