Possibly the most pernicious and evil consequence of the COVID tyranny has been how our kids' educations have been destroyed. From 2019 to 2022 scores across the board plummeted in the largest and fastest way ever recorded. Eight-grade math scores plummeted a whopping 8 points on average as remote learning and increasingly unsafe public school environments throttle the learning process. Friends of this channel will know I spent decades in education, specifically Classical Christian Education, because long before COVID and when wokeness was still relegated to University campuses I, like many Christians and Patriots around the country, realized that public education was rotten and was headed in a dangerous direction. Of course, we have talked to Doug Wilson many times on this channel who has led a revival of private classical schools across the country that many families are turning to. Scores of families are also turning to homeschooling, specifically with classical Christian curriculums. I have the pleasure of being joined today by Robert Bortins, CEO of Classical Conversations which is the largest Classical Christian homeschooling curriculum in the world! I know many families that have used classical conversations for every step of their kids' education and it is great. Robert has become a thought leader on a biblical worldview in education and culture and is the host of a successful podcast called Refining Rhetoric. He is a member of the Board of Directors of Gutenberg College, the Classical Learning Test, and NAV Sevens Rugby. He is also a member of C12 Group, the largest professional development network of Christian CEOs and executives. Under Robert's leadership, Classical Conversations has been named a Certified Best Christian Workplace by BCW for five years in a row.

Episode Description: Episode Description: How do you foster a Biblical Worldview? From its humble beginnings in a basement to its widespread domestic and international presence and influence, Classical Conversations (CC) has embodied this call to know God and make him known within the homeschooling community through its Biblical worldview curriculum. Our guest this week is the CEO of CC, Robert Bortins. Robert, who was one of the initial 11 students in his parent's basement that embarked on this journey, joins Bobby to discuss the heart, mission, and growth of the homeschooling movement that is CC. Robert believes that “all subjects reveal God's glory,” and through the resources and curriculum that CC offers, parents are equipped to help their children grow in God's truth and to grow a community of like-minded Christ followers. In this week's episode, Robert and Bobby will discuss the following: What it looks like to know God and make him known through homeschooling. Living out our faith in contemporary society. The intersection of our faith and the subjects that the students will learn. The importance of who we interact with and how we interact with them on a daily basis. Establishing and following through with good habits will help us meet our goals. Fostering an organizational culture that embodies the mission and lives out its values. Embracing and living out a servant lifestyle.

Imagine the small community setting, thoughtful discussions with peers, and classical curriculum of Classical Conversations®, but at a college level! In this episode of Refining Rhetoric, Robert speaks to Eliot Grasso, vice president and a tutor at Gutenberg College. Gutenberg takes a classical, Christian approach to a four-year higher education while limiting its incoming freshman class to just twenty students. This fosters a family-like community where students learn and live together while exploring and debating big ideas through Gutenberg's Great Books program. Here, Robert and Eliot talk about the importance of a multidisciplinary education, the unique Gutenberg experience, and, surprisingly, what in the world an uilleann pipe is.
