Episode 7 (Current Events) Alternatives to Public Education—Why Are Parents Making the Move?

Music "Pomp & Circumstance" courtesy 3_16Music School choice is a hot topic around the country, as more parents want to get their children away from the influences of public schools that contradict their Christian values. Some states have passed legislation that allows parents to use their tax money for a school of their choosing. In this episode we discuss this trend, the reasons for it, and the proactive steps parents can take toward achieving the best educational experience for their child, no matter their choices.

Episode 6:(Current Events) Faith, Fathers and Family: Keys to Education Success

The U.S. Department of Education, teachers’ unions, and local school administrators seem to share a singular theory that systemic racism is the reason that many students struggle in school. In this episode, Tom and Tim discuss (from a Christian perspective) that national research indicates that faith, fathers, and family are keys to educational success and contentment in life. Sadly, organizations that drive the policies in the public schools have attempted to diminish all three.

Episode 5—A Christian response to DEI: It's not about being for or against diversity. It's about defining the scale and nature of the problem, and an approach that stresses unity over a false binary.

In this episode, the final episode in our three-part series on DEI, we discuss how to respond to the false ideology of DEI with Christian principle. We share a document from Harvard’s DEI department [https://edib.harvard.edu/files/dib/files/calling_in_and_calling_out_guide_v4.pdf?m=1625683246] about how officials ask questions of people who exercise their free speech that is not consistent with DEI orthodoxy. We show how Christianity exemplifies true diversity but does so in a spirit of unity vs the division that DEI foments. *Introduction "Pomp & Circumstance" by 316Music.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
