Summary
As classical Christian educators, we need firm convictions about why we do what we do. We must ask ourselves the fundamental questions. Why educate? Why have a school? Why teach our children for 13–14 years and go to all of this effort and expense? The answer is not about diplomas or college admissions. The answer is found in the way God made the world. He made the world and everything in it. God made us in His image and gave us a mandate to rule over His creation. In our ruling as His image-bearers, we learn of His creation, imitate Him, and bring Him glory!
