I attended Christian schools for most of my education.  I went to a Christian elementary school and a Christian middle school.  High School was the first time that I attended a public school.  Christian schools help children develop strong mental, social, and spiritual character.

Children are never too young to start learning about Christ.  Even Jesus said “Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God” (Luke 18:16).  The earlier children learn about Christ, the more likely they are to continue to follow Him.

Parents should also take on a larger role in developing their children’s relationship with Christ.  Parents should read the Bible to children and teach them about the goodness of God.  ”Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6).

Also, Christian education is great because children are able to pray in school.  Christian schools have just as much temptation than public schools, if not, than more.  The best way to resist temptation is to pray.  Prayer conquers all.

Education doesn’t only have to be in a classroom.  Children learn everywhere they go.  Be sure that the example that you put in front in them is a good one.  Be careful who you let your children around, be careful of what your children watch on TV, and be careful of you say and do around your children.  More importantly, talk to and spend time with your children.  Explain right and wrong.  Don’t shelter their knowledge.  Allow them to know the ills of the world, but explain to them that we have a saviour that will return again.

The world is cold, cruel, and unforgiving.  Help make the world a better place for you and your child.  God Bless!
