The Battle for the Minds of Children: Why Biblical Worldview Education Is So Important
“Being a teacher is not for the faint of heart. Even the best, most dedicated teachers can grow weary and tired. We all need encouragement at times.” — Jenny Copeland
“We’ve lost them. 80 to 90% of them we’ve lost. I mean the millennials. It’s insanity to do the exact same thing we’ve been doing and expect different results. And the one element that the church, the Christian evangelical family in America was missing, was the school.” – Jeff Keaton
This is why Christian education and a biblical worldview are critical. In this episode, join Jenny and special guest, Jeff Keaton, founder and CEO of RenewaNation and Illuminated iLumenEd Academy, as they explore these topics from a practical angle.
How many forms of education are there? What separates them? What is the Christian school teacher’s role in the God-given mandate to train up children? Can Christian education lack biblical worldview shaping? What if I’m currently a public school teacher who’s a Christian, and I feel God calling me to teach in a Christian setting? If there’s not a Christian school in my area, is there a way to get one started?
In this episode, expect answers to all of those questions and more! Don't miss out on this exciting conversation with Jeff Keaton. Tune in to the podcast episode now and discover how you can impact and inspire your students through Christian education and a biblical worldview!
