PLAIN VIEW HERITAGE FARM TRIBUTE TO
by Mrs. Pearl A. Ginther,
Ansgar Svanoe had conversation with her about Christian Education, she recalls, and they must have shared their concern about the decline in spiritual zeal and knowledge evident even at that time. It is doubly clear now (unquestionably so) that secular education as well as religious education have declined in a great many areas, even to a catastrophic degree. But the way back is also given--God, the Source of all true and lasting values and sound principle.
Mind training without soul training leaves the student without character, which our society has discovered in a truly horrible way. Martin Luther was absolutely right about this--that a godless education produces nothing but the devil's playground. Feel free to take this extremely timely speech and share it with others. You will do school administrators, teachers, concerned parents, and concerned fellow citizens, a great favor.--Editor
