Is your children's education important? Are the schools they attend of
concern? Do you care who teaches them? Is their educational environment,
their curriculum, their stimulus to learn, the school's philosophy, and the
balance between academic and extracurricular activities of any concern?
Would you consider allowing your children to receive no education?
Will you knowingly, intentionally, send your child to a "party" university
that has minor interest in educating its students? As a parent, do you
prefer a university that does more to provide "party opportunities" than it
does to educate your child for the adult work force?
In your own job or career, must your learning continue? Do you update and
advance your skills? Do you learn to understand and do new things? Do you
attend seminars or classes that equip you to keep your job or advance your
career?
Is it more essential (1) to educate your children for the adult work force
and (2) to equip yourself to maintain your job/career than (3) to equip you
and your children to live for God now and (4) to prepare you and your
children to live with God eternally?
The next three Sunday morning worship assemblies will be devoted to
encouraging our spiritual education.
The Sunday morning sermons will challenge us to
consider the never ending, growing importance of spiritual education.
A teacher achieves his or her purpose when someone learns. Do you learn?
