Discerning Knowledge

We all want our children to grow in knowledge.

Discerning Knowledge

Have you ever asked yourself- what kind of knowledge?

Discerning Knowledge

In today’s information age, our kids have more access to knowledge than at any other time in history. Knowledge is arguably the preeminent tool of life. Proverbs 18:15 says, “The heart of the discerning acquires knowledge. The ears of the wise seek it out.” Notice that this passage assumes a knowledge that is gathered using wisdom and discernment.

Much of the knowledge that our kids are acquiring on the internet and social media isn’t gleaned through wisdom or discernment. I liken it to the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. They are collecting mostly carnal knowledge. Our kids’ knowledge intake needs to be monitored with their computer actions limited to a common area of the house and discussed often.

"When I met the kids (at SHA), and saw the glow of transformation on their faces, it spoke to me that Shepherd's Hill Academy was more than 'Just what the doctor ordered.' It is a holistic, spiritual and therapeutic approach to healing that provides an atmosphere for learning and a proving ground for the uncompromising time-tested truths of scripture." - John Rosemond, American Columnist
“I am so thrilled to know that there are those out there who are standing on the authority of God’s Word in this age of compromise; teaching parents…to pass on that spiritual legacy to the next generation.” - Ken Ham,  CEO & Founder of Answers in Genesis
