Beautiful view, great people, and a lost post. That’s one way to start off the week–killing your great post that you pre-wrote. But really, that’s quite alright. I’m ready to rumble, live-blogging everything you can possibly imagine, including the popular Dr. Mohler/Paige Patterson discussion on election and the highly controversial SBCHEA Summit meeting. The question is, are you ready? [...] [...] Well, I’m finally here. Beautiful view, great people, and a lost post. That’s one way to start off the week–killing your great post that you pre-wrote.

I was browsing the internet, in search of some quality articles and came across this one by Nathan Finn. His article hits at the heart of the issue that is looming before all of us, an issue that must be addressed quickly. The article hits hard, and it hits home - it entails what I am about and will be about. I’m about showing you, in the next three weeks or so, that when we look at the “Exit Strategy Resolution” we’re not talking about “leaving the schools” because of “homosexuality” or “secular humanism.” It’s more than that, and I’ve attempted to get that across in the few posts that you have read. The fact is that parents are called to raise their children in godliness - they are not to give that task to someone else! Sunday school, christian schools, extracurricular activities are all supplements, not the main course. [...] [...] I always hate to post twice in one day, but all of you will have to get used to it for the next few weeks.

I have not been afforded that respect by several in the homeschooling community. They seem to assume the absolute worst of anyone who would send their child to a public school. I know so many wonderful parents, parenting their children through public schools. As far as relative truth verses absolute truth in the church--I believe we should teach only scripture--and let the Holy Spirit interpret in each believer's life. The church can take a stand on issues that are specifically addressed--lying, cheating, stealing, murder--we can emphatically teach Jesus is Lord--and that He died for our sins. Anything that is not in scripture--like where to send your kids to school--is left for God's leading to each person (or family). Honestly, some of the reasons homeschoolers pull their kids out of public schools are the reasons we put our there. It's how God gave us to teach them. God is good. And Nancy--from the post--was getting me because we do NOT watch tv--at all. She doesn't understand it. I personally don't have time for it--nor do I want it to influence my thoughts. I don't dictate to her whether or not she should watch tv--that's something else God has given us--and if He wants to give that to Nancy--I believe He's powerful enough to do it. Once again--this is a long comment to thank you for your respect. Like you said--end of discussion for me, too! Blessings to you and your family! Brian,

As far as relative truth verses absolute truth in the church–I believe we should teach only scripture–and let the Holy Spirit interpret in each believer’s life.

The church can take a stand on issues that are specifically addressed–lying, cheating, stealing, murder–we can emphatically teach Jesus is Lord–and that He died for our sins. Anything that is not in scripture–like where to send your kids to school–is left for God’s leading to each person (or family).

Honestly, some of the reasons homeschoolers pull their kids out of public schools are the reasons we put our there. It’s how God gave us to teach them. God is good.

And Nancy–from the post–was getting me because we do NOT watch tv–at all. She doesn’t understand it. I personally don’t have time for it–nor do I want it to influence my thoughts. I don’t dictate to her whether or not she should watch tv–that’s something else God has given us–and if He wants to give that to Nancy–I believe He’s powerful enough to do it.

Once again–this is a long comment to thank you for your respect. Like you said–end of discussion for me, too!

Blessings to you and your family!
