No More Back-to-School
Last month, the theology editor at Christianity Today Stefani McDade published a piece defending her choice to eventually send her young daughter, currently a mere toddler, to a local government school. The back-to-school season prompted her to examine how we think about education, discipleship, and the faithfulness of God.

There is a crisis in American government schools– especially in liberal states such as Big Blue Illinois. Not only is the crisis moral, but it is also academic – and obviously so.

You Cannot Homeschool
A homeschool advocate acquainted with an IFI staff member recently answered over 150 Facebook messages about homeschooling. "It's just blowing up!" the advocate said. "Lots and lots of parents from central and southern IL wanting out." Homeschooling has been around for a few decades now, and it has made significant advances in quality and acceptability over the years, but it usually seems to have been relegated to the academic fringes.

Race to the Bottom
It is a sad truth that the United States, the wealthiest nation in the world and the one that spends more on education than any other, continues to see a decline in academic performance. Schools in Chicago, New York, and Washington, D.C. now spend $30,000 and more per student. Only in a government-controlled system could spending rapidly increase while performance continually decreases.

Christian Parents, Your Kids Aren’t Equipped to be Public School Missionaries
A concerned parent sent me this. It’s the school newspaper for Mary Ellen Henderson Middle School in Falls Church, Virginia. Among the other hard hitting pieces of journalism targeted at children, ages 11-13, is an article on “transgender rights.”
The article explains how Obama “improved the lives of transgender people by fighting the discrimination against them,” but all of that is now in jeopardy because of President Trump. The next article delves into the intricacies and wonders of various forms of gender identity, including “transgenderism,” “non-binary,” “bigender,” “agender,” “demigender,” “genderfluid,” and “genderflux.” I’m obviously more innocent and naive than …
