Classical Christian education is a growing trend in America these days. However, for many areas of the country, classical Christian education is a foreign idea. Joe Ben House and Colton F. Moore, classical educators with over fifty years of teaching experience between themselves, guide parents through what one might experience in a classical Christian school. Providing parents with insight, resources, and dry wit throughout, House and Moore call upon all parents to consider their child’s formal education as central to their upbringing. Parents must look beyond the horizon of standardized tests, GPAs, college scholarships, cozy houses, or large salaries and toward something much deeper and rewarding—the very mind and soul of their children.

 

“Insightful, erudite, inspirational, and humorous, this practical introduction to classical Christian education is quintessentially Joe Ben House and Colton F. Moore. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll change the way you think and live. You’ll be ruined—and that is a very good thing. So, tolle lege: take up and read.”

—George Grant, Founder of Franklin Classical School and Bannockburn College, Franklin, TN

“Choosing how and where to educate their children is one of the most important decisions parents will make. House and Moore understand the far-reaching implications of that decision and provide an informed and compelling case for why classical Christian education is an excellent choice. Through reading this book, parents will learn about the history and philosophy of classical Christian education, consider its practical implications, and be equipped with resources to decide wisely how best to educate their children in the paideia of the Lord.”
—Dr. David Diener, Assistant Professor of Education, Hillsdale College; Executive Director, the Alcuin Fellowship
“In a conversational and winsome tone, House and Moore give us a rich overview of classical Christian education. Though this is a great introductory work for the novice, it also challenges the seasoned teacher. After spending decades in the classroom, I was inspired, corrected, and directed in my thinking and practice.”
—Edwin Lang, Headmaster of Geneva Academy in Monroe, LA
