Do you believe this to be true? Must Christian education fly the Christian flag?
Of course, we don't mean this literally. The fabric you see flapping in the wind won't keep the bad guys out.
But it does serve as a metaphor, imagery that's meant to pull back the curtain and display our ultimate commitments.
Like it or not, every education is flying some kind of flag. Every educational system makes an appeal to a higher standard, even if that's just the appetites, the passions, or the law of non-contradiction.
As Christians, we fight to maintain a clear apprehension of our standard, God and His Word. To be worthy of the name, Christian education must appeal to a Christian standard.
Though, this episode isn't a history lesson; it's a call to action for parents and educators to earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. As the winds of academia shift again towards emotional subjectivism and intellectual skepticism, we're standing firm with one simple clarion call:
Christian education flies the Christian flag. There is no other.
