In the last episode, we explored stories of Christians trying to figure out the best way to educate their children. In today’s episode, Jesse Eubanks and Anna Tran reflect on things they couldn’t say about education, including Christians leaving the public school system and how income inequality affects education. They interview Ray Pennings, Executive Vice President and co-founder of Cardus, a leading Canadian think tank. He is also a publisher of Comment magazine. They talk about educational pluralism and schools for the public good. Finally, Anna talks with Amber O’Neal Johnston, a homeschooling mother, author, and expert in adding diverse voices to homeschooling curricula.
