What every Christian parent needs to know about public school — and why what’s taught in the classroom today didn’t happen by accident.

In this episode of The Gritty Gospel, we pull back the curtain on the history, philosophy, and spiritual direction of America’s education system — and why followers of Jesus can’t afford to ignore it.

🔹 PART I: Where the System Came From We trace the roots of modern education — from the industrial revolution to the push for a standardized, state-controlled system.

🔹 PART II: Who Shaped It Meet the key thinkers and reformers who designed public schools to form citizens — not disciples — and how their worldview still shapes classrooms today.

🔹 PART III: How It Became Centralized Discover how government control and federal funding slowly replaced local, family-led influence — and what that means for parents of faith.

🔹 PART IV: As Believers, What Do We Do About It? This is where conviction meets action. How do we disciple our kids in a system that’s discipling them away from Christ?

👉 Whether you homeschool, send your kids to public school, or something in between — this episode will challenge you to think deeply, biblically, and courageously about your child’s education.
