This is Episode 90 of the Consortium Podcast, an academic audio blog of Kepler Education.
In this episode, David Goodwin dives into what a Christian Paideia is, why it matters, and how to raise our children in it as is presented in his book with Pete Hegseth: Battle for the American Mind and his follow up book Forging the American Mind. Listen in as he shares his wisdom on the dangers of education presently and in the future, as well as invites us to learn more about the ACCS Conference Repairing the Ruins, the Classical Atlas and the Classical Christian Schools resources.
