| Summary: | REFORMED CHRISTIANS affirm this life, this world, this culture and seek to integrate faith and life in a seamless whole and to be culturally-engaged in a way that makes the world a better place for everyone. They therefore seek forms of schooling that enable students to radically and profoundly improve society. They ground their perspective in the idea of God's covenant with his people which requires the Christian community to bring children up in a vision of God's purpose of human and creational flourishing. Reformed education has three goals: conservation of the Christian worldview, inquiry into all aspects of life and the world and reform of culture through lives of discipleship. |
