  The lecturer states she “would contend that only a believer is able to truly love wisdom as God created us to love.” Do you agree or disagree? Explain.

  I agree with this statement. I often consider wisdom to be guidance, and as a follower of Christ, we look to him and his love to lead and guide us throughout life which cause us to love, trust, and depend upon Him.

  I agree. The Bible tells us that the wisdom of man is foolishness to God. True wisdom comes from God and my love for wisdom should be as one who knows God and loves Him and His truth: His wisdom.

  I believe that as Christians we are able to “truly love wisdom as God created us to love” because we have the Bible to help guide us and know the giver of all wisdom, knowledge and understanding. God’s Word helps us to learn more about God and have an appreciation for true wisdom. The Bible says to ask for wisdom, to seek for wisdom and that if we do, we will find it.

  I would agree that “only a believer is able to truly love wisdom as God created us to love.” The reason I believe this, is that the Bible says that God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, so true wisdom comes from God alone. If He alone gives wisdom than I believe that He alone can give me the love, desire, pursuance of that wisdom.

  While non-believers can gain knowledge, I would tend to agree that only a believer is able to truly love wisdom as God created us to love. Jesus spoke in parables which were heard by both believers and non-believers; the wisdom that was gained from those parables was only really loved and understood by those who knew Him as Lord.

  I think for many years I have been a good example for my students with patience understanding and compassion.
  I always had the love for Jesus in my heart to share with others, since the way my parents raised me in a very strong
  faithful and Christian environments. With this course I would like to learn to improve even more and to have more clear understanding
  on Christian philosophy

  To be honest, I have already taken this course, but not approved by ACSI. I know I can always grow and learn, and I already implement the scripture and Biblical worldview in every course. Now more than ever I believe what C.H. Spurgeon said, “Withdraw from a child the only divine rule of life, and the result will be almost lamentable. An education purely secular is the handmaiden of godless skeptics.”

  What I would like to gain from this course is more about Christian school philosophy and what the guidelines are. I am coming from a public school teaching experience and am excited to finally have the freedom to speak, talk, and pray about our amazing God the creator of the universe.

  I hope to gain more knowledge on Christian philosophy and how it can be applied to education. I want my classroom to be a well rounded course from a Christian perspective. I would like to grow in approaching every situation through the Christian lens.

  Why is it imperative that Christian educators have a Christian philosophy of education?

  It is so important to share our own perspectives as Christians to the next generation because of that is what we are called to do.

  It is very important that Christian educators have strong biblical and Christian philosophy
  to pass on new generation of students. Christian philosophy education is the base and the foundation
  to guide students with the example of Christ life and the Bible. To help them to grow in the Glory of God
  with love, hope and wisdom.

  All you have to do is listen to the news and one can see that because we have left God out of the equation, every aspect of our society is in turmoil, including the church.

  Our human brain and knowledge is able to only go so far, but when you pull on the wisdom of the Almighty God, He will show you and tell you more. When you talk to God He will direct your path to answers that you are seeking. God is all knowing.

  Christian philosophy is the foundation of what we do as Christian educators. We need to be solid in our philosophy so we are not leading our students in the wrong direction.
