homeschooling is difficult unless one parent stays at home. You mean why aren’t there Baptist schools?

Why doesn't every **Christian** church ( not just Baptist) run a tuition-free school for its members’ children? Oh!....And I am NOT convinced that they can't afford it. If members really cared about the eternal souls of their congregation's children they would volunteer if necessary.

By the way, the Kansas City Catholic Church diocese manages to offer tuition-free K-12 schooling to **all** of its children. They can't be all that rich or special. What are they doing that other Christians can't do?

Obviously, a Christian's **most** important and urgent mission field is that of his own children. The next most important mission is the children of his congregation. Honestly...I find it discouraging to read posts about declining Christian membership ( regardless of the denomination) and then drive by empty and unused church buildings during the week.

Hm?....I wonder how many ministers have spouses that are government teachers? How many government teachers and school employees and their families are sitting in the pews. Gee! Could it be that ministers are afraid to bite the hand that puts money in the collection plate?
