Countering Common Objections to Christian Education

Many arguments are made against Christian education by parents and even some pastors. The most common objections will be responded to in this article. These objections include: Christian education shelters children from the real world; I went to public school and love Jesus; Parents choose Christian education because of fear rather than trusting God; You should send your child to a public school to evangelize others; Parents can unteach and reteach their children after school to counter secular thinking; and Christian education is to expensive.

Generation Alpha Explained: Understanding Their Defining Characteristics with Janine McNally
byjoshmulvihill

Who is Generation Alpha, and what are they up against? In this episode, Josh and Jen sit down with author and Renewanation team member Janine McNally to unpack the defining marks of today’s youngest generation, from constant screen exposure to the erosion of the nuclear family to a worldview battle over truths that past generations never had to question.

Janine, author of When You See Fireflies: Equipping Leaders and Parents to Minister Effectively to Generation Alpha, shares what she is seeing in her research and in her own family, including how the Covid years shaped this generation’s trust in authority and why so many kids today carry a diagnosis their parents’ generation never did. Janine points parents and grandparents back to the basics: biblical boundaries, a home that prioritizes God’s Word, and a family rhythm built on truth rather than trend.

Stick around to the end for a fun (and humbling) round of Gen Alpha slang, tested live on Janine.
