The Case for Christian Education
Scripture and church fathers clearly state that education should be God-centered, but God is banned from public schools.
In spite of the vast sums spent annually for public elementary and secondary schools by our federal, state, and local governments, academic standards in the United States have been plummeting scandalously for decades, as is detailed in other articles in this special report. But the academic decline is only one part of the story. The social, moral, and spiritual decline of the public schools is, arguably, far worse.
So, perhaps we should be asking: “Why are we spending all this money?” And that will lead us to the more profoundly important question: “What is the purpose of education?”
