[Josh John · Rating 4 out of 5]

Schultz lays forth 10 biblical principles of educational philosophy to combat the trends toward secularization in the modern age. Though I wouldn’t particularly use the terminology that the framework of this book is built upon (Schultz is an amillenialists/postmillennialist), the actual content was thoroughly biblical and helpful.

As a pastor, I’d highly recommend this book especially to parents who are burdened in learning a proper educational philosophy to better equip their children with a Christian worldview.

The book was written in the late 1990's, so a lot of the elements addressed don't mention technology or other modern issues that are affecting both public and private education. The principles of educating children with a biblical worldview of course remain the same no matter the era, but lots of things that were addressed were vastly outdated even in the 28 years since the book was written. (Education in the US has rapidly changed, even in the few years that I have been a teacher.)
I agree with most of what was discussed, and very much believe that parents hold the primary responsibility for educating their children, but I don't believe that it is absolutely crucial that every single Christian family needs to send their child to a Christian school or that they homeschool. That view was strongly inferred throughout the writing, and I think exceptions can and should be made when necessary. Also, the author seemed to specifically address schools within the US without consideration for the different types/opportunities of schooling in any other country. That is fine, since the primary audience seemed to be parents and teachers within the US, but it felt quite narrow-minded at times.
I appreciated the focus on how involved the church should be in the training up of children and that it shouldn't just be on Sundays and Wednesdays. I also appreciated the author's emphasis on viewing education from an eternal perspective.
There are many strong truths throughout the book that we should be reminded of and I think it can still be referenced today, but with a grain of salt and a current lens considering the current education system in the US.
