A clip from the late Pastor Voddie Baucham has resurfaced, raising a question that Christian families can’t afford to ignore: Who is really discipling our children?

“If we continue to send our children to Caesar for their education, we need to stop being surprised when they come home as Romans.”

Imagine a scenario in which you have $8,000 to buy a car for your child. You research reliable makes and models, visit several dealerships and find an option that fits your youngster perfectly. Now imagine a similar, but different, scenario where $8,000 is spent on a car for your child, but the decision about make, model, dealership and price is made for you by an elected board of car buyers.
