Train Up a Child
The team at Train Up a Child is comprised of a group of Southern Oregon parents and concerned citizens who are working diligently to promote and support Christian education.
The term, "train up a child" comes from the Biblical passage in Proverbs 22:6 and is considered by many Bible scholars not to be a promise that children will never rebel, but a "great duty" of parents and instructors, as described by Matthew Henry's Commentary. Henry also describes the way children should go, "Train them up, not in the way they would go (the bias of their corrupt hearts would draw them aside), but in the way they should go..."
We believe that in order to win the battle for the hearts and minds of our children, parents must take responsibility to bring up their children in the training and admonition of the Lord as Ephesians 6:4 charges us, and a community of Christians must join in the battle by partnering with the parents through the sharing of the resources of time, financial support, prayer and loving Godly guidance.
If you would like to learn more about how to take the step to enroll your child in a Christian private school, would like assistance with school funding, or are interested in homeschooling options for your child, please get in contact with us. Our team is skilled in all of these areas.
Please consider supporting a child in need and make an eternal impact. Our goal is to help families have this opportunity for their children to have God centered education. Please also consider praying or joining a prayer group to lift up this need for our children. And lastly we invite you to host a showing of the 14,000 hours documentary with your group.
