Thence to the local Christian high school. Christian education, in whatever form it takes, is so important. It's impossible to remove God from education, because it's impossible to remove God from anything. If we pay attention, everything we learn in school - English, Biology, Geometry - points to God, and gives us a better picture of his plan. We ignore that connection at our peril, and loss. It's a wonderful gift to be able to allow our son to follow these paths to their natural conclusion, rather than in public school, where he wouldn't be allowed to talk about it.
