What does Dr. Black mean when she says the Christian school is important in raising a generation that is more than just competent cognitively?
-
We are raising children that are grounded in the Word, and in a relationship with Christ. This will be their guide throughout their calling in life.
-
That we are raising people that are more than just able to “think.” We have a responsibility to raise up spiritually mature individuals that can sift all information through a Biblical lens.
-
She meant that we must teach more than academic subjects. We must teach students what it is like and what it means to be Christian. Also how to prepare for Christ’s return.
-
Dr. Black means that we cannot just educate students in our subject areas. We cannot just teach them to think and to be articulate. We have to tech the students about the works of the Lord. If students are not familiar with the promise that God has for us, all is lost.
-
We want children to be competent cognitively, but to also use their critical thinking skill and make a difference in this world. Allow students to think for themselves by comparing and contrasting information that they encounter daily. For them to be independent thinkers. This will help them navigate through life’s circumstances.
