The Effects of Progressive Education, and How the Church Can Apply the Antidote

July 23, 2026, at 7:00 PM EDT

As we endeavor to train children for a life of  faith, why are so many children in Christian families rejecting the faith? We believe it’s the theology of their education, as all education is based on a theology. Dr. Thomas Korcok, in “Serpents in the Classroom”, presents an approachable and brilliant articulation of the underpinnings of Christian education. Join us to review progressive education’s doctrines and harms, as well as Christian education’s doctrine and practices, and then to discuss how we can apply the antidote (based on “Serpents”).


Pastor / Headmaster Series

Male Headship in Classical Lutheran Education

August 6, 2026, at 7:00 PM EDT

The second webinar of our series is led by Mr. Josh Swigart, an experienced headmaster.

Male headship is boldly confessed by the Lutheran Church in the ministry and in marriage. But what about in education? Does male headship have an application in schools? Does it affect discipline and spiritual formation? Should it shape who teaches certain subjects and age levels? Does it affect boards or other authority structures? Drawing on Scripture, natural law, and historic Christian sources, this interactive webinar explores how male headship applies in education. It will help prepare boards, headmasters, teachers, and parents to consider God’s wonderful design in creation and encourage them as they raise children accordingly!

The Seven Laws of Teaching

Join us to discuss the science and art of education through John Milton Gregory’s “The Seven Laws of Teaching”, with interactive examples in literature, Latin, math, and history. What better way to equip students to love God with all their minds, hearts, souls, and strength and to ready them for full participation in both the Kingdom of God and the Earthly Kingdom than by maximizing their intellectual capabilities through the liberal arts.


Pastor / Headmaster Series

Focus in an Age of Digital Distractions

October 19, 2026, at 7:00 PM EDT

Our third webinar in the series will be led by Pastor Jeffrey Hendrix, Pastor at Faith Lutheran Church and Headmaster of Sursum Corda Classical School, in Oregon, Wisconsin.

Social media allows us to hear the thoughts of men on the other side of the world.  It is at once helpful, but also debilitating.  It is both encouraging and addicting.  This webinar will help work through a variety of issues, such as anxiety, doubt, lethargy, and restlessness, which are inflamed by digital distractions.

Introduction to Norms and Nobility

November 17, 2026, at 7:00 PM EDT

The fusion of the rational with the metaphysical is antithetical to the postmodern mind, but for classical educators the two are harmonious and necessary to one another. David Hicks explores this in his book, Norms & Nobility, writing: “Education must address the whole student, his emotional and spiritual sides as well as his rational. The aims of education, the teacher’s methods, the books and lessons, the traditions, and regulations of the school – all must express not just ideas, but norms, tending to make young people not only rational, but noble.” Whether you are new to the text and would like introductory insights, or you wish to revisit this iconic treatise on education, we invite you to join us to explore the major ideas presented in the first eight chapters of Norms & Nobility!
