A resolution submitted at the Southern Baptist Convention’s 2004 annual meeting called on all Southern Baptists to remove their children from the public schools. Although the Christian Education Resolution was not adopted by the convention, cosponsor Bruce Shortt still considers it imperative that Christian parents either send their children to Christian private schools or homeschool them. This week, he joins host Mike Smith to explain why.

Combining rigorous research with a biblical perspective, Bruce Shortt’s new book is based on a clear understanding of God’s educational mandate to parents. Of particular interest to parents, pastors, and educators is a thoroughly documented analysis of the inevitable results of governmental school systems: moral relativism, lowered academic standards, and lack of discipline. Paperback, 464 pages.
