When it comes to education content and methodology, do we truly believe that Scripture is sufficient to make us “complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work” (2 Tim. 3:17)? Sadly, many professing Christians have bought the lie that Scripture is silent on key facets of learning, paving the way for false worldviews such as humanism, evolutionism, and socialism to fill the void. The results have been ruinous, as children have left the faith in droves.
In this podcast, Scott Brown and Jason Dohm, joined by special guest Kevin Swanson, sound the call for Christians to reject the myth of neutrality in education and embrace the sufficiency of Scripture instead. Our teaching methodology, they explain, must be 3-pronged: (1) integrating God’s Word into every subject, placing it as “frontlets” before our children’s eyes; (2) integrating parents every step of the way; and (3) integrating learning beyond the classroom into all of life (Deut. 6:6-9). If we take such steps—embracing the fear of the Lord as the beginning of wisdom—we will not only glorify God, but we’ll raise strong children.
