Should Christian parents send their kids to public school? Does the Bible say anything about how we should educate our children?

Many are afraid to give a clear word on this controversial topic. Many think that God’s Word leaves it up to us to choose what we think is best or most convenient. However, our children’s education is one of the most important responsibilities of parents, and specifically fathers. How Christians educate their children will determine the future of churches and societies – so this is no small matter.

I believe that God’s Word does have clear guidance for us on this issue, and in this video, I lay out my case for why Christians should not send their kids to public school, but instead are obligated to give their children a distinctly Christian education. This may take the form of homeschooling, private Christian school, classical Christian education or even other creative ways. But, the main point is that if we keep giving our kids to Caesar – they’ll keep coming back as Romans.
