We've Been Schooled and A President's Day Reflection
Plus, an offer to save 10% on any student course today only
Those of you who have followed my work for any length of time are likely aware that my primary day job is to serve as the President and CEO of Kepler Education, an online market place for Classical Christian Education.
Classical Christian Education is the historic liberal arts tradition which cultivates free human beings and stands in opposition to the modern progressivists’ pedagogy designed to train compliant citizens who serve as consumers and cogs in an industrialized State.
I take the position (as does Kepler under my leadership) that a truly Classical Christian Education is one that strives to glean the best of Western liberal arts education in every epoch. For this reason, Kepler teachers strive to foster conversation and dialogue in the true spirit of the academy where the free exchange of ideas offered respectfully and in good taste are welcome and put forth for the students' consideration and contemplation.

Today, as we observe President’s Day, we reflect on the kind of education that nourished the hearts and minds of our nation’s greatest leaders, men whose wisdom and moral clarity shaped the course of history—leaders who understood that liberty is best preserved by an educated citizenry.
These men were not merely trained in facts but educated in virtue, steeped in the classical tradition that prepared them to lead with courage and conviction. This is why I am so passionate about reaching families with this insight to education.
The same rich heritage of learning that sharpened their minds, cultivated their imaginations, and fortified their character is what Kepler Education offers today: a classical Christian education rooted in truth, virtue, and the Great Conversation of Western civilization.
The educational tradition that I’m talking about, the approach which enculturated our nation’s founders and so many like them, is more than a curriculum—it is a way of thinking, a way of living, a way of preparing the next generation to lead with courage and conviction. In our current age of confusion and cultural decay, the need for such an education has never been more urgent.
At Kepler Education, we equip students with the tools of learning—training them in reason, discernment, and rhetoric—so they might stand firm in their faith and flourish in their calling. We offer a robust selection of courses taught by passionate educators who believe in the power of a truly classical Christian education.
This President’s Day, we are offering families a final opportunity to take advantage of our Early Enrollment discount—10% off any student course—but only until midnight.
This is the only time Kepler's valuable courses will be discounted. Use code EARLY2025 at checkout.
