Education

"Whatever education is, it should make you a unique individual, not a conformist; it should furnish you with an original spirit with which to tackle the big challenges; it should allow you to find values which would be your road map through life; it should make you spiritually rich, a person who loves whatever you are doing, wherever you are, whomever you are with; it should teach you what is important: how to live and how to die."

-John Taylor Gotto
 

Take a moment to go and see what she wrote about why she home schools.  I say Amen to that.  :o)

TWO WAYS TO FORSAKE MEETING TOGETHER

Take a moment to visit Alan Knox and read this - http://www.alanknox.net/2010/08/two-ways-to-forsake-meeting-together/

I like how some Bible versions put it --- to PROVOKE each other into love and good works.

Provoke to me has always had a negative connotation to it but here it sounds like a good thing or at the very least can be used as a good thing.


PROVOKE = http://www.thefreedictionary.com/provoke
pro·voked, pro·vok·ing, pro·vokes
1. To incite to anger or resentment.
2. To stir to action or feeling.
3. To give rise to; evoke: "provoke laughter".
4. To bring about deliberately; induce: "provoke a fight".

So not only should we meet together regularly, but we we should be stirring each other into action.  What action...? ...love and good works.

Good lesson to take note of.  :o)
