236: What Liberals Get Right About Homeschooling


Listen Later

The Washington Post did an article on homeschooling last week. Even with as pro-homeschooling we are, they got some things right as far as some concerns to look out for when it comes to homeschooling your children. Today, we are going to discuss those concerns.

We are going to start off by saying that we don’t think public school should be an option for Christian parents. Our children should not be sitting in a godless environment all day long. If we send them to a godless society, we can't be surprised if they come back godless. We are really seeing that with our young people in the church. Regardless of whether that is homeschooling or sending them to a private Christian education, they need to be educated from a Christian worldview. That is the most important thing.  

It’s fun to see how homeschooling has gotten picked up by the mainstream media because it’s such a thing now. The stats in this Washington Post article were saying that homeschooling has gone up by 51% over the past six school years. This is something that all of a sudden people are caring about a lot more.   

Each home needs to take very seriously the education of our children because these are going to be the adults that are leading our society in a very short amount of time. We don’t know when the Lord is going to come back. We don’t know what God has in store for the next generations. We have to parent with a multi-generational mindset. We can do so much as believers if we have bigger goals for our children, regarding how they can be used by God in our society.
