If you've read Jonathan Haidt's book, The Anxious Generation, you know that one of his most talked about remedies to teen anxiety is for schools to take steps to keep the phones out of students hands during the school day. While that might seem to be something easier said that done, how can we move schools in that direction, and how do students respond? I want to invite parents, youth workers, and school administrators to find out as you listen in to my conversation with two school administrators who followed Haidt's advice, on this episode of Youth Culture Matters.

Classical Christian education isn't just for a privileged few—it's a banquet meant for everyone. In this inspiring episode, Davies Owens is joined by Russ Gregg, founder of Hope Academy in Minneapolis and the Spreading Hope Network. Russ shares how his journey began 25 years ago with a simple but powerful question: How do we love our neighbors as ourselves, especially when it comes to education?From navigating the real challenges of urban communities to pioneering a sponsorship-based financial model, Russ explains why "the education that's best for the best is best for all." Together, they explore the crucial need for high expectations, high accountability, and high support in raising up the next generation.Plus, Russ discusses the exciting movement of school choice sweeping the nation, the importance of family habits like mealtime reading, and why true joy comes from making room at the banquet table for those who have historically been left out. If you've ever wondered how you can be part of the classical education renewal—whether as a parent, a founder, or a supporter—this episode is your invitation.

Jamison Coppola, Government Relations Director for American Association of Christian Schools, and host Dr. Matt Davis unite in this informative episode of OnMission to probe a topic of obvious mutual concern—religious liberty, especially as it relates to Christian education and traditionally-held Christian principles. They explain the implausibility of legislators and staff predicting all ramifications of proposed bills, especially with unknown modifications in the amendment process, and why this necessitates vigilant advocates. Using the proposed school choice bill, they illustrate how advocates can assure explicit language in a bill to protect interests. They discuss public policy, fluctuations in administrations, the vanishing of “common ground,” and the unfettered rapid rise of animosity across the “ideological spectrum” that collides with age-old Christian values and labels them “radical.” They conclude with an encouraging look at the “massive shift” toward homeschooling and growing options for private education.

Full Text of ReadingsMonday of the Fifth Week of Lent Lectionary: 251The Saint of the day is Saint John Baptist de La SalleSaint John Baptist de La Salle's Story Complete dedication to what he saw as God's will for him dominated the life of John Baptist de La Salle. In 1950, Pope Pius XII named him patron of schoolteachers for his efforts in upgrading school instruction. As a young 17th-century Frenchman, John had everything going for him: scholarly bent, good looks, noble family background, money, refined upbringing. At the early age of 11, he received the tonsure and started preparation for the priesthood, to which he was ordained at 27. He seemed assured then of a life of dignified ease and a high position in the Church. But God had other plans for John, which were gradually revealed to him in the next several years. During a chance meeting with Monsieur Adrien Nyel, he became interested in the creation of schools for poor boys in Rheims, where he was stationed. Though the work was extremely distasteful to him at first, he became more involved in working with the deprived youths. Once convinced that this was his divinely appointed mission, John threw himself wholeheartedly into the work, left home and family, abandoned his position as canon at Rheims, gave away his fortune, and reduced himself to the level of the poor to whom he devoted his entire life. The remainder of his life was closely entwined with the community of religious men he founded, the Brothers of the Christian School (also called Christian Brothers or De La Salle Brothers). This community grew rapidly and was successful in educating boys of poor families, using methods designed by John. It prepared teachers in the first training college for teachers and also set up homes and schools for young delinquents of wealthy families. The motivating element in all these endeavors was the desire to become a good Christian. Yet even in his success, John did not escape experiencing many trials: heart-rending disappointment and defections among his disciples, bitter opposition from the secular schoolmasters who resented his new and fruitful methods, and persistent opposition from the Jansenists of his time, whose moral rigidity and pessimism about the human condition John resisted vehemently all his life. Afflicted with asthma and rheumatism in his last years, he died on Good Friday at age 68, and was canonized in 1900. Reflection Complete dedication to one's calling by God, whatever it may be, is a rare quality. Jesus asks us to “love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength” (Mark 12:30b, emphasis added). Paul gives similar advice: “Whatever you do, do from the heart…” (Colossians 3:23).

Walking with the Saints l Feast of St. John Baptist of La Salle, Patron Saint of All teachers l April 7 Today we shall bring to you the story of the “Patron Saint of Teachers.” He was a French priest and the founder of the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools. This Institute run schools and is now very popular in the field of education in many countries. St. John Baptist De La Salle. He is referred to as De La Salle or La Salle, and his company is called the Christian Brothers or LaSallian. Our saint was born in Reims, France to a noble and wealthy family on April 30, 1651. His parents, being devout Catholics, offered him and his brothers to the service of God, so he was tonsured at the age of eleven, in a ceremony common during that time. When he was sixteen, he was named canon of the Reims Cathedral and the following year he received the minor Orders. He pursued higher studies and after completing his classical, literary and philosophical studies, he entered the Seminary of Saint-Sulpice on October 18, 1670. In 1672, he became a subdeacon and on April 9, 1678 at age 26, he was ordained a priest. Two years later, he received a doctorate in theology. De La Salle dedicated his life to the education of poor children in France. He first worked to help the teachers who lacked training, purpose, and leadership. In 1680, he invited a group of them to take their meals in his home, taught them good manners and inspired them in their work. Then, he invited them to live in his home, a move that disturbed and scandalized his relatives and friends. When his home was lost in a lawsuit, he rented a house and brought the teachers with him. He resigned his work in the parish and devoted his full attention to the training of teachers and establishing schools. Afterwards, he founded a religious institute, the Institute of the Brothers of Christian Schools, the first among religious groups consisting only of Brothers and no priests. This enterprise was opposed by many ecclesiastical authorities and even by educational establishments. Nevertheless, he pursued his plan, with the purpose of educating the “children of artisans and the poor,” while teaching them about the Catholic faith. The Institute was soon recognized by the Church. In 1685, he founded in Reims, France the first normal school, a school whose goal is to train teachers. De La Salle took up the cause of educating the poor seriously. By the time of his death, the Christian Brothers have founded schools in 22 cities in France. He also contributed much to the entire field of education through his writings and new teaching methodology. The LaSallian tradition believed that all God's children, particularly the young, have an inherent dignity, being created in the image of God and education is the means of developing this dignity for the sake of the students and of society. They believe that “… not only is God so good as to have created us, but desires all of us to come to the knowledge of the truth.” This, in fact is the vision and achievement of John Baptist De La Salle. In 1719, due to vigorous labor, De La Salle got sick and died at Saint Yon, Rouen, France, three weeks before his 68th birthday. It was on a Good Friday. Pope Leo XIII canonized him on May 24, 1900. On May 15,1950, Pope Pius XII proclaimed him Patron Saint of All Teachers. His feast day is April 7, the day of his death. In 2021 the International LaSallian Mission Web site stated that the LaSallian Order consists of about 3,000 Brothers, who help in running over 1,100 education centers in 80 countries with more than a million students, together with 90,000 teachers and lay associates. Virtue: piety, humility, courage, charity, perseverance, integrity, generosity and excellence Prayer: Pray, St. John Baptist De La Salle, that today's youth may cherish the knowledge about God including virtues and moral discipline.”

STILLWATER CHRISTIAN HEAD OF SCHOOL LAURA MC COLLUM TRT: 17:30
In 2019, two pastors from my church approached me with a request: would I be willing to create a foundation or endowment to raise money for the Christian school our church operates? Without hesitation, I said yes. Both of my children had attended the school, and it had a profound impact on our family. While I had experience serving on nonprofit boards, I had never started a nonprofit from scratch. This was entirely new territory. I spent the first year immersed in research—consulting legal experts, meeting with our church's board of elders, and speaking with leaders from other schools that had established foundations. Then, in October 2020, I was introduced to Ross Hjelseth. Ross had served as the head of schools at Life Christian Academy in Tacoma, WA, where he helped establish their foundation. His coaching and consulting played a crucial role in helping us navigate the process and make meaningful progress. Having gone through this experience—and after receiving multiple inquiries from others looking to do something similar—I realized it would be valuable to record a podcast on the topic. My goal is to provide a roadmap for anyone considering starting a foundation, helping them move forward more efficiently. In today's episode, I'm joined by Ross to discuss the process, key steps, and timeline involved. While Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) and Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) are sufficient for most people's charitable giving, for those interested in establishing a foundation, this conversation is for you.

From the Olympics to San Jose State, each month we hear of new controversies where biological men are competing in women’s sports. Most of those situations relate to college, international, or public school competitions. But how do policies that permit transgender athlete participation impact private religious schools, both now and in the future? How do such schools’ sincerely-held religious beliefs about these issues change what state actors can and can’t do? In Mid Vermont Christian School v. Saunders, the Vermont Principals Association (VPA), a state-sponsored sports league, removed Mid Vermont from its athletic association because the school forfeited a girls’ playoff basketball game against another team with a male athlete who identified as female. The Christian school declined to play the game because of its religious beliefs about sex, yet the VPA imposed this punishment while still allowing forfeits for secular reasons. Although the VPA has historically prohibited boys from playing on girls’ sports teams “to protect opportunities for girl athletes,” it recently adopted policies that allow males who identify as female to participate in girls’ sports and demanded Mid Vermont’s girls’ teams play against teams with male athletes or not play at all. Mid Vermont and some of its families sued in response. In June 2024, a federal district court applied rational-basis review and denied Mid Vermont’s motion for preliminary injunction. The case is currently pending at the Second Circuit, where the court will resolve whether, while the case proceeds below, Mid Vermont will be allowed to rejoin the state athletic association it competed in for close to 30 years. Join us for a discussion of this case, the religious liberty issues implicated, and the larger consequences state nondiscrimination laws may have on religious schools going forward.Featuring:David A.

There may be new concerning legal precedents forcing Christian Schools to include woke gender ideology. John-Henry Westen speaks with Jack Fonseca from Campaign Life Coalition about the case of Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB) trustee Michael Del Grande. Del Grande has faced significant backlash since 2019 for opposing the inclusion of gender identity and gender expression in the school board's code of conduct, a move mandated by the Ontario Minister of Education.Del Grande attempted to challenge this policy by facetiously proposing the inclusion of other behaviours considered sinful by the Catholic Church, such as bestiality and polygamy, to highlight the absurdity of the changes. This led to an intense backlash, with media campaigns accusing him of promoting hate and legal action within the board to remove him. Despite initially being found not guilty of misconduct, a second, controversial vote reversed the decision, leading to sanctions against him.Del Grande took legal action, challenging the decision in Ontario courts, but has faced setbacks due to what Fonseca describes as judicial bias. He has since appealed to the Supreme Court of Canada, with Campaign Life Coalition crowdfunding his legal fees. The case could have broader implications for freedom of speech and religious rights in Canada, and a loss could set a precedent for persecuting Christian public officials.Help Catholic School Board Trustee in his time of need: https://www.lifefunder.com/helpMikeU.S. residents!

Guests: Jason Spodnik, President and Head of School, Cuyahoga Valley Christian Academy (Cuyahoga Falls, OH) If you'd like to watch this podcast, check out the PCA YouTube page. Parents, here is some wisdom from a guy who has been in the private Christian education world for many years: There is so much to learn, so don't let pride get in the way as we look to steward the incredible gifts of our children for the greatest good of advancing the Kingdom! Parenting by Paul David Tripp is a great reminder that God fashions Himself as a parent so He can not only relate to us as parents, but He models the way for us in this amazing endeavor! God used Christian education to move Jason from Christianity as a religion to a relationship - such an incredible journey! More is “caught” than “taught” - how we interact with students is even more important than what we are “teaching” them in terms of curriculum - students will learn from how you say things, not just what you say… Special shout out to Jared Wood for allowing us to use his music - check him out at JaredWoodMusic!

Mark and guest Andy Hooser dissect the Madison school shooting and expose the current failed Biden administration and Whie House response for more tired calls for gun control that would have done NOTHING to stop the 15 year old killer. The young murderer was already 100% gun controlled at her age and no calls for phony "assault weapons" bans (the killer used a handgun), magazine bans and background checks and red flag laws would have prevented the shooter from committing the crime. But that doesn't stop Democrats.

Three people are dead and another six are in the hospital after a shooting at Abundant Life Christian School on Madison's east side Monday morning. The shooter, who was a student at the school, is among the dead, according to Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes. Barnes identified the shooter at a Monday night press conference as Natalie Rupnow, 15, who went by the name “Samantha,” and said she appeared to have died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
