Adventist Education
by Wesley and Miriam Taylor
What makes Adventist education unique? Seventh-day Adventist education is a life-transforming experience, a spiritual revolution. It's not something simply to be pursued, framed, and hung. Its height is service; its depth is commitment; its scope is eternity.
“
If you think education is expensive try ignorance.”
Benjamin Franklin
The Word of God must be the foundation of all we do in the school— not just of the Bible class, but of every subject, every topic. The essential pillars of learning are to know God, to understand His plan for our life, and to exemplify Him in all we do. The resulting structure is an education with a view of eternity. "This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent" (John 17:3). This education provides a safe shelter for our children. It furnishes them with a sense of purpose, of identity, of belonging. When your children are taught by God, Isaiah affirms, "great shall be the peace of your children" (Isa. 54:13).
Luke 2:52 describes the education that God provided for His Son: "And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men." Notice that Jesus developed in four key areas: mental, physical, spiritual, and social. This balanced, whole-person development is the education that our children and youth must experience.
