Sponsor
a student today!
For as little as $30 a month, you can instill
Christian truth in the heart and mind of a child.
Christian schools can be a great tool for evangelism and
discipleship. How else can you get non-Christian parents to
give you their children’s hearts and minds for 35 hours each
week? We had many students whose parents never darkened
the door of a church, but they paid us thousands of dollars
each year to educate their child. What a great opportunity
for evangelism and discipleship.
I believe that when we create a new movement of Chris-
tian education, and millions of new children are receiving
that education, we may spawn a spiritual awakening. Most
of the millennial generation (78 million born between 1980-
2000) have been secularized. They are not as open to the
gospel, and they do not believe the Bible. Therefore, they are
much more difficult to evangelize. However, every time we
give a child a biblical worldview, they are highly susceptible
to the gospel. They believe the Bible! They believe in sin and
hell and judgment. They believe that Jesus died for their sin
and that He is the Savior of the world.
Christian education is one of the greatest tools for
evangelism in the world. Pastors and church leaders need
to be awakened to the great power of weekday Christian
education. Yes, it is costly. Yes, it will make some people
unhappy. However, it is a life-changing method of preparing
the hearts and minds of the next generation to know, love,
and serve Christ.
