Today's Christian Education Commentary
with Harold Naylor
A common theme in the Old Testament is that of remembering.
Throughout the Old Testament, the Israelites were challenged to remember; to remember God’s faithfulness to them throughout various times in their history, and the ways in which He saw them through difficult and even terrifying times. The consequence of not remembering was often either judgment or misfortune.
This challenge still applies to us today. Remembering how God has been faithful to His people throughout history, and throughout our own lives, is a critical aspect of growing in our walk with God and experiencing His blessing.
If we want to ensure that our children have a solid foundation on which to build their lives, it must start with simply, remembering, who God was, is, and always will be. A Christian school is an excellent way to ensure that your children are being taught to remember God on a daily basis.
We can help you find a Christian school and fulfill the directive we have been assigned as Christian parents.

Hothouse - The Best Growing Environment
Today's Christian Education Commentary
with Harold Naylor
How is a Christian school like a hot house for plants?
Educating children is like growing young plants. They both need basic nutrition, rich soil free of contaminants, clear air and sunshine. Like young plants, children are not yet ready to put into an environment that is hostile or unhealthy – they need protection at young ages.
The family, church and the school are the child’s best growing environment, just like the hot house is to young plants.
When the roots are deep enough, the trunk strong enough, and the foliage is plentiful, the plant can go into a new world and thrive. So, too, is the child who is grounded in God’s Word and teaching.
The Psalmist describes the blessed man: “He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.”

Foundation
Are we building a solid, unshakable foundation for our children's lives?
Luke 6:49 says, "the one who hears my words and does not put them into practice is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. The moment the torrent struck that house, it collapsed and its destruction was complete."
Whether we realize it or not, as parents we are adding to the foundation of our children's lives every single day. Do we as parents give great attention to the foundation of our children's lives?
If not you can change that beginning today. Choosing a Christian school can be an excellent way to help ensure that you are building a foundation based on God's Word.
