John Milton wrote that,
 “The end then of learning is to repair the ruins of our first parents by regaining to know God aright and out of that knowledge to love Him, to imitate Him, to be like Him, as we may the nearest by possessing in our souls of true virtue, which being united to the heavenly grace of faith makes up the highest perfection.” [i] 
Milton understood that an education was essential and that education extended beyond the Bible to the academic areas.  Proverbs even stresses a good education.  It is my desire to help build that solid foundation of academics so that students will be successful in fulfilling God’s will for their lives.
