April 14, 2022 • Dr. Chris Schlect

Dr. Schlect answers the question, “What really is classical Christian Education?” This may seem like a rather pedestrian question, but in this talk we are challenged to think about what it means to move past the basecamp of Dorothy Sayers, while yet honoring the tradition in which we find ourselves.

November 12, 2021 • Chris Schlect, Ph.D.
What is the role of "play" in education? We often think it only belongs to that part of the day called "recess" or to the domain of sports and athletics.

A Thwarted Marshwiggle, Exasperation, and the Illusions of Time
November 12, 2021 • Ben Palpant
Proverbs 16:9 says, "A man’s heart plans his way, / But the Lord directs his steps." Author and poet Ben Palpant tells a story of what first seemed like the ruining of his grand plans for a day in England but how God directed his steps toward an even better fulfillment than he had planned. This was a talk from the 2021 ACCS Northwestern Administrator's Conference.
