So, I have been reading alot about C.S. Lewis lately for some reason and I have stumbled upon another quote of his that I thought I would share. In light of all the work that I do with Artios Academies, I found this statement to be very true.

“Education without values, as useful as it is, seems rather to make man a more clever devil.”

With man’s fallen nature, all knowledge and education we gain only goes so far as to make us a a more “clever devil”. Values and more importantly, a biblical worldview must be integrated in all knowledge that is taught. Without this firm foundation of a biblical worldview, education cannot equip a man of God for every good work.- 2nd Timothy 3:17.
