Many churches have taken a step back from actively influencing educational environments.

 

This retreat has left a void, one swiftly filled by secular institutions. As a result, the government and other non-faith-based entities now play a predominant role in shaping our children.

 

Many of the environments shaping our children do not align with our faith or uphold the principles we believe are best for our families and communities.

​

The consequences are profound. In the absence of spiritual guidance during school hours, our children are increasingly exposed to a curriculum that prioritizes secularism over spiritual growth.

 

This leads to confusion, a lack of moral standards, and a loss of a centered, faith-based perspective in life's important decisions.

 

We risk our children losing touch with our Christian values, the values that nurture their spiritual well-being and guide them toward a righteous life.

Now, more than ever, it is imperative for churches to reclaim their influential role in education. By strengthening Christian schools, supporting Christian educators wherever they serve, and investing in children throughout their communities, churches can help restore a faithful presence in education and create more places where faith and intellect grow hand in hand.
