“If we want our children to experience true joy and satisfaction in life, we must give them a biblical worldview.” Start a Christian School into my office and tell me about their godly grandparents. They often would tell me about the fond memories they had of a praying grandmother or grandfather. However, then they would tell how their parents had failed to pass on this same level of faith to them.   Joshua’s grandchildren did not know about the great things the Lord had done in the life of Israel or their grand- father Joshua. If we hope to pass on the Christian faith to the generations to come, we must be very intentional about teaching them the truth and shielding them from the false philosophies of the day. 6. We want to spend all eternity with our children and grandchildren. If we truly believe that every child will live forever in heaven or hell, we should shudder at the possibility of them not making it to heaven. This life is simply a dot on the never- ending line of eternity. When we fail to teach our children the truth about God, we are setting them up for eternal failure. This thought gets me up every day and drives me to give my best to help one more child come to know Christ and see all of life through a biblical lens.   At Renewanation, we are investing heavily in Christian schools and churches. We want to help churches do a great job of teaching the children in their care, and we want to make weekday biblical worldview education much more accessible.

Renewanation’s Christian School Startup Program can help you launch your school in a solid, effective way to ensure long-term sustainability. We use a 5-phase process of examination, preparation, launch, growth, and maturity to not only help start a new Christian school but also provide the support to sustain a school long term. The process typically spans a period of four to five years as we coach and guide new schools in the tools needed to continue their journey of reaching the next generation with a biblical education. renewanation.org 1-855-TO-RENEW 11
