    Timeless Education for Modern Times with Robert Littlejohn (Series: What is Classical Christian Education?)

    What exactly is Classical Christian Education? Ask ten people, and you might get ten different answers. Is it about Latin? The Great Books? The Trivium? Character formation? Academic excellence? In this foundational episode of our series, What is Classical Christian Education?, Davies Owens sits down with one of the pioneers of the modern classical movement, Dr. Robert Littlejohn, to answer that very question. Drawing from more than three decades of experience founding schools, training educators, and shaping the movement itself, Dr. Littlejohn explains why Classical Christian Education is far more than an educational method. It's a timeless approach to forming wise, articulate, faithful young men and women who are prepared not just for college or careers—but for life. Together, Davies and Robert explore why this centuries-old model may be exactly what families need in today's rapidly changing world. Tune in to hear: Why Classical Christian Education continues to grow around the world The surprising story that convinced Robert Littlejohn to start a classical school Why challenge—not ease—often produces joy in learning What makes a classical education different from simply adding Bible classes to a modern curriculum Why subjects like Latin and logic still matter today How classical schools cultivate "sticky faith" that endures into adulthood Why the Great Books remain relevant in every generation How timeless wisdom prepares students for a rapidly changing technological world To receive a free copy of Robert’s book Wisdom and Eloquence for Parents for a limited time go to www.WisdomAndEloquence.org, and click on “Contact” to fill out your information for the free book.

    Rooting our Families with Jennifer Freeman

    Parents often spend so much time navigating the needs of today that it's easy to lose sight of where we're ultimately headed. But what if raising children begins with keeping the end in mind? In this episode, Davies Owens welcomes Dr. Jennifer Freeman of the Rooted Families Initiative to discuss a framework for family discipleship that helps parents understand the unique opportunities and challenges of every stage of childhood—from infancy through young adulthood. Drawing from decades of mentoring college students and families, Jennifer shares practical wisdom for raising children who grow into wise, discerning adults who love Christ. Tune in to hear: Why parenting is most effective when we keep the end goal in view. Jennifer's five stages of family discipleship and how each stage requires something different from parents. How to encourage healthy independence without withdrawing guidance. Why meaningful conversations become increasingly important during the teen years. How parents can prepare young adults for adulthood without trying to control every outcome. Why seasons of questioning and doubt can become important milestones in developing mature faith. Practical encouragement for trusting God's work in your children's lives through every stage. Rather than offering another parenting formula, Jennifer encourages parents to see themselves as beloved caregivers, partnering with God as He forms their children over time. Whether you're holding a newborn, navigating middle school, or preparing to launch a young adult, this conversation offers hope, perspective, and practical guidance for every season.

    Forging the American Mind with David Goodwin

    What happens after we realize that education is about far more than information transfer? In this episode of BaseCamp Live, Davies Owens sits down with David Goodwin, president of the Association of Classical Christian Schools and co-author of the New York Times bestselling book Battle for the American Mind. David's newest book, Forging the American Mind, serves as a practical guide for parents and educators who want to understand not only why classical Christian education matters, but how it actually works. Tune in to hear: Why Battle for the American Mind resonated with so many parents and educators What paideia is and why it shapes every child's understanding of truth, identity, and purpose Why the most important question in education is not "What do you know?" but "How do you know?" How Dorothy Sayers and C.S. Lewis continue to influence the classical Christian education movement Practical examples of classical education in action, from great books and handwriting to Socratic discussion and dialectical learning How adults who feel they "missed out" on a classical education can begin pursuing one today Along the way, David offers a compelling vision for recovering the lost tools of learning and cultivating wisdom, virtue, and intellectual freedom in the next generation. Whether you're a parent, educator, school leader, or lifelong learner, this conversation will help you think more deeply about what education is for and how it shapes both individuals and culture.

    Parenting in an Age of Fragmented Attention with Suzanne Phillips

    How do we faithfully raise children in a culture that constantly fragments their attention? In this episode of Base Camp Live, Davies Owens welcomes Suzanne Phillips of Beacon Parent for a thoughtful and deeply encouraging conversation about parenting in an age of distraction, anxiety, and cultural confusion. Rather than offering another parenting checklist, Suzanne shares a biblical framework for becoming the kind of parent your children can follow. Together, they explore what Suzanne calls the seven facets of a “Beacon Parent,” including the supremacy of Christ, expressed honor, intentional legacy, transformative wisdom, humble courage, secure identity, and personal responsibility. Along the way, they discuss: • Why everything starts at home • The difference between knowledge and wisdom • How technology is reshaping childhood • Why honor is disappearing from families • The dangers of fear-based parenting • Why children need gradual responsibility • How parents can lead with clarity instead of anxiety This conversation is both practical and hopeful for parents seeking to raise grounded, thoughtful, Christ-centered children in a rapidly changing world.

    A Framework for Classical Education with Lindsey Ralls (Series: What is Classical Christian Education?)

    What does classical Christian education actually mean? In this episode of BaseCamp Live, host Davies Owens continues the ongoing series on classical Christian education with guest Lindsey Ralls, Upper School Head at Summit Christian Academy. Together, they explore a practical framework for understanding the heart behind classical Christian education, not simply as a method or curriculum model, but as a vision for forming flourishing human beings. Lindsey shares how Summit Christian Academy developed a one-page framework to help parents, teachers, and students better understand the deeper purpose of classical Christian education. The conversation moves beyond the familiar language of the trivium and great books into topics like virtue, paideia, ordered affections, truth, goodness, beauty, and the intentional formation of students. Davies and Lindsey also discuss how the classical movement has matured over the last 30 years, shifting from an emphasis on educational stages and methodology toward a richer focus on formation and discipleship. They unpack several key principles that shape Summit’s approach, including formation over information, imitation over innovation, the givenness of the universe, and helping students distinguish between truth and reality. 🎧 Tune in to hear: Why classical Christian education is about formation, not just information How schools can intentionally cultivate virtue and ordered affections The difference between truth and reality in today’s culture Why imitation and apprenticeship still matter in education Practical ways parents and teachers can create meaningful conversations This episode offers practical encouragement for educators and parents alike, especially those seeking to cultivate thoughtful conversations, wise affections, and a deeper understanding of what it means to raise children to love what is true, good, and beautiful.

    Beyond Slogans: Can Virtue Actually Be Taught? with Sharon Carlson

    How do we move students from simply talking about truth, goodness, and beauty to actually living those ideals out in everyday life? In this episode of BaseCamp Live, Davies Owens is joined by Sharon Carlson for a thoughtful conversation about what it means to develop an “operational theology” , a faith that shapes not just beliefs, but daily decisions, relationships, failures, and future plans. Sharon draws from decades of experience in classical Christian education, student formation, counseling, and college advising to explore how schools and parents can help students connect theology to real life. Together, they discuss: Why students often struggle to apply Christian truth in practical decisions What “the good life” actually means from a biblical perspective How parents and schools can respond redemptively when students fail Why discipline moments can become discipleship opportunities The difference between knowing Christian virtues and becoming more like Christ How theology helps students navigate anxiety, uncertainty, and major life decisions Why “the best next step” matters more than fear of making the “wrong” decision Sharon also shares insights from mentoring students through college and career decisions, helping them understand that God’s will is ultimately about being conformed to the character of Christ, not simply finding the perfect school, job, or path. 🎧 Tune in for a rich conversation about spiritual formation, discipleship, and helping the next generation move beyond slogans into deeply lived faith.
