It would be great if churches would have a fund to subsidize members’ kids either in Christian school or in a homeschool program. We support missionaries on the mission fields, and the missionaries’ children usually are home schooled. Why not our own kids?

I agree that something like this would be useful.

We should also keep in mind that the government school system, which does not need to compete for $$, drives up the cost of private schooling.

Bingo! You deserve a prize!

Isn't a Christian's **most** important mission that of his **own** children?!!!

It's like that flight attendants say, “Put the oxygen mask on your own face first then help the person next to you.”

In the work of salvation its your own spirituality first, then your family, and then the world,

One more thing regarding churches:

1) How many ministers have spouses that work in the government schools? In my denomination, **plenty**!

2) In my community the government school district is the largest single employer with the largest payroll in the county. No other industry comes close! Add to that the vendors and their employees who service the schools. That is a **LOT** of people sitting in the pews who suck a living from the nation's K-12 socialist-entitlement schools. How many ministers are willing to bite the hand putting money in the collection plate?
