Raise Them UP!

3: Teaching Civics, History, and Discernment from a Biblical Worldview | Steve Noble

Listen Later

Equipping the next generation to live out a biblical worldview doesn’t happen by accident — it requires intentional teaching, discernment, and engagement with the culture.

In this episode of Raise Them Up, Fred Zielonko is joined by longtime Christian educator and broadcaster Steve Noble, founder of Noble U, to discuss why Christian parents must actively invest in teaching civics, history, and ethics through the lens of Scripture.

Steve shares his personal journey from Christian radio into full-time education, explaining how God led him to focus on discipling high school students at a critical stage of their formation. Drawing from over a decade of teaching experience, he explains why traditional textbooks alone are not enough — and why real-time engagement with current events is essential for building discernment.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

  • Why most students lack a foundational understanding of civics and government
  • The importance of teaching history with honesty, humility, and biblical clarity
  • How current events help students see that God’s Word is not abstract — it works
  • Why discernment must be taught, not assumed
  • The unique challenges today’s students face in a digital, post-Christian culture
  • How Christian parents and educators can faithfully pour wisdom into the next generation

    • This conversation offers both encouragement and conviction for parents, homeschoolers, and educators who feel called to help raise children who can think clearly, stand firmly, and live faithfully in an increasingly complex world.
