Educated for Liberty

America’s Future Depends on Your Child’s Education

Written and hosted by Stephen McDowell

Educated for Liberty explores how home-centered biblical education produced the free and flourishing nation of America, while secular education has led to great moral and academic decline. Restoring biblical education is the solution to our loss of liberty and excellence. This film examines the characteristics, model, fruit, and societal impact of biblical education, as well as the roles of the family and the church in educating future generations. Through numerous stories and interviews of Christian educators, school administrators, teachers, pastors, and parents, Educated for Liberty seeks to encourage families to govern the education of their children. It is intended to inspire pastors and leaders in the church to become actively involved in education, thereby assisting parents in fulfilling their responsibility to educate their children.

This volume focuses on key early colonial and Revolutionary War sites in Massachusetts and highlights how biblical principles influenced the birth of the United States.

Crime and Punishment, A Biblical Perspective (audio)

Crime is rampant throughout the world and affects everyone. Over 10 million crimes are committed every year in America. Every 3 seconds a crime occurs against someone’s property. Capital and other violent crimes occur about every 35 seconds. America’s response to crime (like most nations) has largely been to build prisons to keep criminals, and this at an annual cost exceeding $30,000 per inmate. These “correctional institutions” have done little to correct the problem and in many ways have helped develop more professional criminals.

God has a better way to deal with law breakers. The Bible reveals to us the cause of crime and why crime flourishes, but more importantly how to deal with crime. It gives us both preventative and corrective measures. The emphasis of God’s Word in dealing with criminal acts is restitution to the victim and restoration of Godly order. This audio examines Biblical restitution, the death penalty, theft by voting, and much more.
