Churches, should schools pay rent?

A Christian school was using church space, and the practical question came up: how should this work? Should they pay rent? Should there be a formal arrangement? Is this a tenant situation?

Fair questions.

But then another pastor said something that stuck.

We don’t charge the youth ministry rent.

We don’t charge the children’s ministry rent.

So if a school is helping disciple children, support families, and carry out the mission of the church… why are we treating it like an outside renter?

That one question changed the way they saw it.

Because at some point, churches have to decide whether Christian education is just something they “support” from a distance, or something that belongs inside the mission.

Parents, are you ready for what’s coming?

Education is changing fast.

For a long time, many families were limited by where they lived. They are assigned to school districts and can only pick from which nearby schools happened to fit best.

But that old model is shifting.

More parents are asking different questions now:

Does this education fit our faith?
Does it reflect our values?
Does it support the way my child learns?
Does it make room for their gifts, interests, and calling?

The future of education is not be one-size-fits-all.

And for families who are paying attention, that opens the door to something much more personal.

If you’re a Christian parent, stop scrolling.

We can win elections.

We can pass better laws.

We can complain about the culture all day long.

But if our children are being discipled by people who hate God for 30+ hours a week, what do we think is going to happen?

That’s the question Alex Newman raises in this clip.

It’s uncomfortable. It should be.

Because the long game is not just politics.

It’s our children.

What if the real crisis isn’t academic?

The concern is not only that too many children are struggling to read, write, do math, or understand history and civics.

The deeper concern is what is filling the gap.

When academics collapse, something else takes its place.

A worldview.
A set of values.
A way of seeing truth, family, faith, identity, and authority.

Parents are right to ask hard questions.

Who is forming my child every day?
What are they being taught to believe is normal?
And what will it cost if I ignore it?

This is a hard conversation, but it is one parents cannot afford to dismiss.

The quiet crisis in Christian education

Christian education does not only need parents with children currently enrolled.

It needs people who still see it as part of their mission after their own children graduate.

In this clip, Phyllis Kuckelman talks about stewardship and the responsibility to keep supporting what God has blessed.

Because the blessing of Christian education should not stop with one family.

It should be carried forward for the next student, the next school, and the next generation.

If we want Christian education to grow, it cannot depend only on the families who need it right now.

It needs the whole Body of Christ.

Don’t be the parent who sees it too late.
Many parents assume they would know if something was changing in their child.

But formation can happen slowly.

A different way of seeing the world.
A growing distance from family.
A quiet rejection of faith.
A new contempt for the values they were raised with.

And by the time some parents notice, the divide is already painful.

Yes, choosing a different path for your child’s education can require sacrifice.

But every parent has to ask:

What is the cost of doing nothing?

05/31/2026

Sometimes the faithful choice changes.

For one season, homeschooling may be exactly what your family needs.

In another season, a private Christian school may be the better fit.

The point is not to prove that one path is always the answer.

The point is to prayerfully discern what your children need, what your family can carry, and where you can find the support to keep forming your children in faith.

There is no shame in needing help.

There is no shame in changing course.

Faithful parents are allowed to make different decisions in different seasons.

Is the Church just giving lip service to Christian education?

It’s one thing to tell parents they should educate their children in the Lord.

It’s another thing to help them carry the cost.

Families need more than encouragement.
They need support systems.
They need schools.
They need scholarships.
They need pastors, churches, and the Body of Christ willing to stand beside them in practical ways.

Because if we believe Christian education matters, we cannot leave parents and school founders to figure it out alone.

Conviction should lead to action.

For every parent told, “your child can be a light…”

Yes. Children can love Jesus. They can show courage. They can be kind, faithful, and bold even at a young age.

But “be a light” should never become a shortcut around a parent’s discernment.

A five-, six-, or seven-year-old is still being formed. And parents have the responsibility to know where that formation is happening, who is shaping their child, and whether their child is ready for that environment day after day.

That’s the hard question in this conversation:

Are we discipling our children first, or sending them out before they’re ready?
