"Freedoms, The Bible, and Facts are Essential to Education

In today's educational environment, the challenges to simply mentioning the Bible are extreme... yet Essentials in Education (EIE) has developed a method and the material to teach it in our classrooms! We believe our country will benefit from becoming more informed students and citizens. Will you join us in our mission to have a positive impact on students' lives?..."

I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT "Christian college forces students to go to mosque"

the students are NOT required to participate in the service. They can just observe. I think this is GOOD for people to do, especially college students. 

"Texas Christian University is actually closed on Good Friday,” spokeswoman Holly Ellman told The College Fix in an email. “The date on the syllabus was inaccurate, which the professor is aware of and is modifying. He will notify his students accordingly to ensure that they have accurate, up-to-date information about the course.”

Asked for further clarification on the field trip, and the course and its content, Ellman referred to the class’ one-sentence online description.

Spring semester launched in mid-January at the private university, located in Fort Worth. The course, “Understanding Diverse Faith Communities,” is taught by Associate Professor of Islamic and Religious Studies Yushau Sodiq, whose faculty page states he earned his bachelor’s degree in Islamic Studies and master’s degree in Islamic law at University of Medina in Saudi Arabia, and his PhD in Islamic Studies from Temple University. He also taught at a university in Nigeria before his post at Texas Christian University, which he has held since 1992.

Sodiq did not respond to emails from The College Fix asking whether there is an alternative assignment for students who do not wish to observe the Islamic service, and well as for more general information on the course and its academic aims..."

Kneel down now and say to Jesus, "Sorry & Thank you, I surrender to YOU, LORD, & Commit my LIFE 2 U, now & forever"

(Kids need spirituality) YES! "Walking Wisely Weekend Hosts 5,000 Middle School Students to Answer Questions About Spirituality"

I'VE BEEN ADVOCATING FOR CHAPELS & SPIRITUALITY TO BE ALLOWED IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS FOR YEARS NOW...good to see something like this...pray for more of it:
"...cultivate a relationship with Christ.
"Spirituality, according to some statistics I've read,
is some of these kids' number one question," said
North Point's multi-campus Director of Middle
School, Tom Shefchunas, to The Christian Post on
Friday. "They don't understand it, and they don't
have a lot of places to really process it. You can
have questions and you should have questions."
The Walking Wisely Weekend hopes to answers
some of those questions for attendees..."
