Summary

In Perspectives on Your Child's Education, proponents of four very different learning options present their faith-based positions on how a parent should answer the question, "Where should I send my child to school?" Troy Temple (International Center for Youth Ministry) is convinced every Christian parent should consider public schooling. G. Tyler Fischer (Veritas Academy) believes open admission Christian schools are best for Christians and non-Christians alike. Mark Eckel (Mahseh Center) favours covenantal Christian schools that don't enroll non-Christians. Michael Wilder (Southern Baptist Theological Seminary) advocates homeschooling. For each contributor's chapter, a counterpoint chapter from the other contributors follows with a goal of determining which view is most in line with what the Bible teaches.

Author Biography
