Why do we do it?

"To educate a man in mind and not in morals, is to educate a menace to society."
Theodore Roosevelt

I read this and I know we are doing what we are supposed to be doing!
We educate our sons not only for their minds but that their hearts are trained too! We want them to not just KNOW for the sake of knowledge, but be convicted in their hearts that, "To love the Lord their God with all their hearts, mind, soul, and strength and love their neighbors as themselves," is the most important thing.
Having raised sons with nice diplomas on the wall or large bank accounts would be nice, especially in today's society. These things are secondary to having raised men of integrity, passionate about following the Lord and His will for their lives. What Mindy has done is more than a sacrifice, it is a calling. I am so thankful God chose her to be my wife!
