I know? because I?m one of them.
I believe in our children having a good education?
But too often, academic prowess or a desire to return to ?classical education? outweighs something much more important.
Christian character.
Think it through home school parents?
If your child is?
- A scientific genius.
- A musical prodigy.
- A literary master.
- A mathematician to rival Einstein.
But does not know Christ in a way that changes her from the inside out?
You are failing in the most colossal of ways.
Your first job as a home school parent is to?
- Train up your child in the way he should go? (Proverbs 22:6).
- Instruct him in the word (Deuteronomy 6:4).
- Teach her to know and follow hard after Christ (Luke 9:23).
- Help him understand that nothing matters more than knowing Jesus (Jeremiah 9:24).
Don?t let yourself get so caught up in the temporal aspects of education that you neglect the eternal ones.
If you do, you?ll be making a mistake of eternal proportions.
Tell me your story? What is the hardest part of keeping your child?s educational endeavors centered on Christ?
