The Bible tells us in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 6 verses 6 and 7
And these words which I command thee this day shall be in thine heart
And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children
And shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house
And when thou walkest by the way
And when thou lightest down and when thou risest up
According to this passage it is the parent's job to teach the word of God to their children
It's the parent's job to teach their children
And this is much easier to do if you homeschool your children
It's not the government's job to teach your children
It's the parent's job to teach their children
And a recent study has found that homeschoolers are less likely to leave the faith
Than public and privately schooled students
Children that are taught the word of God at home are more likely to stick with the faith
The recently released findings from an in-depth study of nearly 10,000 young adults
Showed that millennials who were homeschooled are less likely to leave the faith
Than individuals who attended private or public schools
The purpose of this study was to examine the adults who were churched growing up
And to understand the key influences which either encouraged or deterred them from believing and practicing the faith of their parents
This was the survey's director and lead researcher Dr. Brian Ray
The study found that individuals who were homeschooled, attended church regularly
And had good relationships with their parents
Were most likely to remain involved in the Christian faith
Another recent report has showed that
The number of homeschooled students in the United States is approaching 2 million
Homeschooling is an increasingly popular form of education in the United States
With an estimated 1.8 million students now being educated at home
And this is a very good thing
As I said before, it's not the government's job to educate children
Or indoctrinate children really is what they're doing
It's the parents' job to educate their children
And that's exactly what the Bible says
Thou shalt teach them diligently until thy children shall talk of them when thou sittest in thine house
Homeschool
The report sheds light on why a growing number of parents in the United States are choosing to educate their children at home
9 in 10 homeschooled students as parents reported that
Concerns about schools' environments was an important reason for their decision to homeschool
Many parents also mention a desire to provide moral or religious instruction
A dissatisfaction with the academic instruction at other schools
And a desire to provide a non-traditional approach to the child's education
As reasons they chose to homeschool their kids
And as we said before, research suggests that children who are homeschooled in Christian homes
Are less likely to leave the faith when they grow up
And this lines up with exactly what the Bible says
The Bible says train up a child in the way he should go
And when he is old, he will not depart from it
So that's a good thing to see the number of homeschooled children increasing in the United States
