Kepler’s Consortiums provide resources and regional connections for Christian families, teachers, and educational organizations to expand the reach of classical education and foster human flourishing for generations to come.
Joshua Gibbs is the director and co-founder of The Classical Teaching Institute at The Ambrose School in Meridian, Idaho. He is the creator of the Proverbial podcast, the In the Trenches podcast, and the author of How to Be Unlucky, A Parley with Youth, and Love What Lasts. In 2019, Gibbs authored Something They Will Not Forget, in which he described his pioneering use of classroom catechisms, which are now found in many classical Christian schools in America and abroad. His pamphlet, “A Short Introduction to Classical Christian Education,” is used by hundreds of schools to introduce prospective families to classical education. For the last six years, Gibbs has been teaching classical literature online at Gibbs Classical, where an extensive back catalog of classes are available.
