Description
Get them out-now.
Many Christian parents oppose our godless American culture, but how many of us are willing to put our money where our mouth is?
In this short but spicy book, Douglas Wilson calls for Christian parents to remove their kids from public schools. Beginning with the commands in Scripture for parents to raise up their children in the fear and admonition of the Lord, he shows that parents must not send their children to be catechized by unbelieving teachers and peers.
Although he has many hard words for public schools, Doug pulls no punches on parents who assume that a Christian curriculum alone will fix all their problems. Parents need to train their kids' minds, bodies, and hearts so that they are prepared for the real world. This is a high and difficult calling, but we can look to God's promises to help us as we train our children.
