An Examined Education, presented by The Cambridge School in San Diego, explores the foundations of classical Christian education and its vital role in today's world. In this episode, Jean Kim, founder and head of school, delves into Os Guinness's compelling metaphor of "cut flower civilization" - the idea that Western society continues to display the beauty of Christian and classical influences while being increasingly disconnected from these vital roots.
Drawing from her decades of experience in education, Kim examines how classical Christian education can help reconnect students to enduring truths and traditions in an age of rootlessness. She discusses the challenges facing today's youth, from moral relativism to a crisis of meaning, and presents a hopeful vision for renewal through education that emphasizes wisdom, virtue, and purpose beyond individual achievement.
This thought-provoking conversation explores how schools can foster genuine human flourishing by connecting students to transcendent truth, cultivating meaningful relationships, and grounding them in the rich soil of classical and Christian traditions. Whether you're an educator, parent, or simply interested in cultural renewal, this episode offers valuable insights into creating an education that prepares students to think well, love rightly, and live wisely.
