Conference on Classical Education
September 25, 2023
On Saturday, September 30, Peace Lutheran Church & Academy will host a mini-conference on classical education. “Lutherans and the Liberal Arts” will begin with Matins at 9:00 and will feature speakers Dr. Gene Edward Veith and Mr. Nathaniel Pullmann. If you’d like to attend, please contact Pastor Christiansen at 262-246-3200. We plan to conclude at 3:30.
If you have your children in a classical school, this conference for you! If you love learning about how to learn, this is for you! We will discuss why the liberal arts are called “liberal,” whether classical education is a good fit for all Lutherans, and how classical learning can protect and help our families throughout our culture-war issues.
