Cary Christian School Knights Podcast Cary Christian School Knights Podcast

Pete Hegseth, Fox News Anchor, visited our campus to discuss the new book he has written with David Goodwin, the President of the Association of Classical Christian Schools. In this talk, Pete dives into the incredible value of Classical Christian Education, and how it equips students to flourish in the modern world. He talks about why he has chosen Classical Christian Education for his own kids.

I'm so excited to introduce you to Kristen Andrews. Kristen teaches second grade at Cary Christian and she LOVES what she does. Listen to how she seeks to develop a true love of learning in her students as she connects her love and enthusiasm for math with her Creator.

Join me in a conversation with Rhetoric School History teacher, CJ Zbinden. He dives into how he teaches the American Revolution to Seniors and what it looks like to dive into really important questions through the lens of History. Mr. Zbinden does a great job of helping his students navigate difficult topics by not teaching them WHAT to think, but rather HOW to think. Click here to listen!

I am so excited to welcome our Seminar team to the Podcast. Kate Fredrikson, Patrick Halbrook, Michelle Lasch, and Tom McMahon all discuss how they are seeking to develop the intellectual virtues in our Rhetoric School students through the Seminar Program. Check out how they are engaging with their students in the hopes that they will develop the habits of the mind in a way that develops the habits of the soul. Our prayer is that the Spirit would use this time in our students lives to draw them to their Creator and Savior.

We generally know what it means when we say that someone seems "stoic." But what is stoicism really? How can it point us to truth? How does it fall short? Tom McMahon dives into these questions and discusses this school of philosophy and how he teaches it to 9th Graders!

Welcome back to the Knights Podcast!! We are so excited for season two!
