This introductory 16 -page booklet lays the foundation for a biblical philosophy of education that begins with God's eternal intent, honors the child as His masterpiece, and restores education to its rightful place—as the conduit that equips the child to walk in their God-given calling. “Which comes first, purpose or education?” That's the question my 10-year-old daughter asked after reading the Note to the Reader. I smiled and told her to continue reading, because that's exactly the reaction I pray this booklet will spark in others—the desire to think deeply, return to God's Word, and discover the purpose for which we were created.
