Reflections on the Character and Objects: Of All Science and Literature, and on the Relative Excellence and Value of Religious and Secular Education, ... and Classical Literature (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
A bold call for an American Christian approach to education, with the Bible at the center.
This book argues that the nation’s schools should be shaped by religious and moral teaching, not European models that elevate the classics over Biblical foundations. It presents a clear program for reform, urging readers to place duty to the people, faith, and national character above traditional curricula.
In these pages, the author challenges the prevailing view of education and explains why religious instruction belongs in every stage of learning. He advocates using the Bible as a daily textbook and urges cooperation among Christian denominations to form practical, national educational schemes. The work also reflects on the role of parents, teachers, and institutions in building a public education that serves liberty, virtue, and practical citizenship.- Why current education struggles to foster genuine religion, thinking, and civic virtue.
- How the Bible can function as the central text across schools, colleges, and universities.
- Guidance for creating Christian, liberal education that supports both private improvement and public good.
- Practical steps for educators and communities to unite across denominations around common educational goals.
