Description

For August, we featured Chris Weir, Executive Director of The Camino Schools, to talk about the Christian vision on Education.

How does the Christian approach to education differ from the modern/secular approach? In what ways can we gradually open ourselves and pave this vision for future generations? What does it look like in the real world?

Here are some of the references from the talk:
