The Christian Responsibility To Educate Children - Ep.191 - Jeff Park From Anarchist Bible Study-Pt1

Is it the Christian responsibility to educate children or is it fine leaving that to the so-called experts? While the answer may seem simple enough, we invited an expert on public policy in education and Christian podcaster Jeff Park. He talks about the Christian's responsibility in educating one's children and where the responsibility lies. He goes over the current educational landscape (in both the United States and Canada). Finally, we discuss the rise of homeschooling and the benefits for both parents and adults - and why not always having a teaching degree isn't a bad thing. This is part one of our discussion.
