In this episode, Dr. John Patrick reflects on the role of curiosity, narrative, and careful thinking in education and how modern systems have quietly undermined all three.

The episode concludes with reflections on reading scripture aloud, musical interpretation, and the deep difference between recognizing words and understanding meaning offering a powerful reminder that education, like faith, is about formation, not mere information.
