Is your child's education actually neutral? In this episode, 1819 News sits down with Pastor Rich Lusk (Trinity Presbyterian Church / Trinity Classical Academy) to argue that no classroom is neutral—every school disciples children into someone's kingdom.
Lusk makes the biblical and historical case that Christian children need a thoroughly Christian education and why this is the front line of the culture war. From Deuteronomy 6 and Ephesians 6 to the Greek concept of "paideia," and from Horace Mann and John Dewey to King Alfred the Great, this is a blueprint for rebuilding Christian civilization one child at a time.
"Progressives don't reproduce in the bedroom, they reproduce in the classroom." If you're a Christian parent, this one is for you.
