What does Western civilization have to do with a classical Christian school?
In this episode of Virtue and Verse, Jenny and Hannah explore a bold but sincere conviction: that investing in our children’s classical Christian education is, in many ways, an act of cultural stewardship. Beginning with the question “What is the purpose of education?” they consider whether education is merely about career preparation—or about forming students who can inherit, understand, and faithfully carry forward a civilization.
They discuss Western civilization not as a story of perfection, but as a tradition shaped by Scripture, reason, literature, philosophy, and centuries of wrestling with truth and human nature. At Redeemer, studying the West isn’t about nostalgia or nationalism—it’s about gratitude, discernment, and responsibility. If we have received an inheritance, are we preparing our children to understand it, critique it wisely, and build upon it?
This conversation is thoughtful, hopeful, and grounded in the belief that education shapes not just individual lives—but the future of a culture.
