Guest Post from my son

Why I Value an Education at Luther Prep
By William 
 Ever since I was young I thought that the prospect of boarding school was really cool. Being with Christian friends, family and teachers and those who I knew would care about me and my education made me think how cool  it would be to go to a boarding school. Just the prospect of being around friends who cared about me and my life and loved God just as much as I did fascinated me. It made me want to go to boarding school. It made me want to go to a school where Christ was the foundation, not some Darwin or other men. I wanted to go to a place where I would not only be taught the basic stuff but about Jesus and what he did for us! I don’t know what I’m going to be when I grow up, but I know that whether I grow up to be a pastor, teacher, staff minister of something totally different, that a Christ centered education is invaluable and that it will profit me all the days of my life. What I wish is that  I have the chance to learn God’s word and spread it in whatever means or conditions he sees fit. Life is not a video game. There are consequences to what people do good or bad. What I want is to start life off on the right foot and there is no better way than to start with a good Christian education! A education at this school would encourage me to make good choices and in turn receive good consequences. All this and more starts with a good, rock solid education at Luther Prep School
