Let My Children Go [Paperback]

E. Ray Moore (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: May 20, 2002

On March 28, 2002, Christian family leader Dr. James Dobson on his Focus on the Family radio broadcast stated, "In the State of California, if I had I child there, I wouldn't put the youngster in a public school . . . . I think it's time to get our kids out . . . ."

American schools receive the highest funding in the world yet consistently rank near the bottom in mathematics, physics, and science. Despite the failings of public schools, more than 80% of evangelical Christians place their children in the public school system, exposing them to physical and moral danger on a daily basis.

The Biblical instruction of our children may be the thrust that God could use to restore American society and revive the nation. A fresh obedience by the Church to its God-ordained role in education may be the catalyst for a new Great Awakening.

5.0 out of 5 stars This will certainly make you think, July 24, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Let My Children Go (Paperback)

This is an excellent in-depth look at the reasons for leaving the public school system in favor of home education or private/Christian schools. Many case studies as well as historical details and examples are given.

This shows the Bible passages relevant to the discussion.

If you are considering the pros/cons of education methods, you should not make a decision without reading this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unique insight into the crisis of government education., January 26, 2005

This review is from: Let My Children Go (Paperback)

Mr. Ray Moore, whom I am now priviledged to know as a dear friend and encourager, has written an important work with incredible insight. I have read many books on home education, but never one that touched on sensitive issues such as socialist indoctrination through "group-think". Government schools are not broken - they are performing exactly as planned. Christian parents of infants, toddlers and preschoolers work diligently "to train up a child in the way he should go". Then, at the tender age of five, pack the child off to government school, to have everything planted in their child's heart completely destroyed. A must-read AND a must-heed!
