In an interview with Christian Headlines, Bishop T.D. Jakes shares how God is using his STEAM program.

I’m convinced that the best opening line in history is by C. S. Lewis’s in the Voyage of the Dawn Treader: “There was a boy called Eustace Clarence Scrubb, and he almost deserved it.” In selfish, snotty-nosed Eustace, Lewis personified how malforming and narcissistic, in both habit and pedagogy, education can be, especially when it encourages students to “look inside,” “express themselves,” and “be whoever they want to be.”

The Washington Post editorial board recently looked into a religious liberty case set to be heard by the Supreme Court and came out on the side of the religious institution at the center of the case. In their statement they found that using scholarships -- which in turn would allow scholarship donors to receive a tax write-off -- at private, religious schools was a parent’s right and using them did not “undermine” or “harm” public education or the state, “contrary to many of the tropes advanced by those opposed to school choice.”
