What Makes the Principle Approach Unique?


It is Biblical...

» Enlightens the understanding (John 10:37)

» Corrects the temper (Peter 1:4)

» Forms the manners and habits of youth (Phil 1:11)

» Fits them for usefulness in their future stations (John 15:16)


It is American...

» It teaches the Christian how to think governmentally

» It teaches the providence or hand of God in history, specifically the historical relation between Christianity and liberty in this nation

» It teaches God’s continuing provision for individual liberty, self-government, and dominion

» It teaches that an American Christian is a steward of America’s heritage of Christian character, self-government,

property, union, and form of government


It is Classical...

» Classical based on the Hebraic teaching tradition where the child was led by example through mentoring and interaction with adults to think, argue, reason, and relate 

» The Hebrew view of education is inseparable from life itself and the primary purpose of teaching and learning in Bible times was to train the whole person for lifelong, obedient service in the knowledge of God
