“Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.” Luke 1:37 (ESV)
The National Assessment of Educational Progress, a report released by the U.S. Department of Education, revealed 65% of eighth graders in public schools were not proficient in reading.
67% of eighth graders were not proficient in math.
These are the stats while over 91% of all American children are educated in public schools.
Decisions concerning our children’s education are really decisions about when, where, how and by whom they will be discipled.
Time is the critical ingredient to discipleship. Education is discipleship.
