    "Education is an adventure... It's about people, children, life, reality!" -Susan Schaeffer Macaulay

     

    Every parent and teacher wants to give their children the best education possible. Everyone would like education to be a joyous adventure and celebration of life, as well as a solid preparation for living. Sadly, most education today falls far short of this goal.

    But as Susan Schaeffer Macaulay shows it doesn't have to be this way. Education can be a wonderful, life-enriching, joyous experience.

    For the Children's Sake is a book about what education can be- for your child, in your home, and in your school. It is based first on a Christian understanding of what it means to be human- a child, a parent, a teacher- and on the Christian meaning of life. At the same time it is deeply practical. many of the central ideas have been tried and proven true over a century in almost every kind of educational situation. The ideas are in fact so true that they can be applied equally at home, in different schools, in Africa, in the inner city, and in your own community. But they are also ideas which Susan and her husband ronald Macaulay have tried and proven in their own family and school experience.

    For the Children's Sake is a book which can help every parent and teacher awaken the young minds of their children and give them a new richness, stability, and joy for living.

    SUSAN SCHAEFFER MACAULAY grew up in Switzerland at L'Abri Fellowship, which was founded by her parents Francis and Edith Schaeffer. She and her husband Ranald Macaulay led the L'Abri branch in England for a number of years. They have recently moved with their four children back to Switzerland to take over the leadership of Swiss L'Abri. She is also the author of the award-winning How to Be Your Own Selfish Pig and Something Beautiful from God.
