  • Oedipus Rex, with Jennene Margrave
    2026/04/14

    Can a man escape his fate? Does wisdom lead only to sorrow? What if the detective is the murderer without knowing it? Do you know yourself—and what price do you pay to learn that truth?

But how do we answer such questions with eighth graders in a Christian context? Find out in this friendly guide to Classical Christian education.

    2026/03/10

    What actually is a "gospel"? Why are there four gospels in the Bible, not just one? Why are Matthew, Mark, and Luke so similar, and John so different?

  • The Life of St Francis, with Dr. Andrew Selby
    2025/12/09

    Francis of Assisi: was he a mystic, a heretic, or the saintliest among saints? An animal-loving, poverty-embracing, creation-caretaker genius of the Christian walk... or was he bonkers? Some combo of all these, or just a simple, committed follower of Christ?

  • How To Tell a Story, with Alexandra Klein
    2025/11/11

    Yarns, tall tales, mysteries, romances, thrillers, myths, fables—we all love a good story. Why? On a deep level, stories and narratives shape how we see truth and gain wisdom. When students get how narratives work, they can think clearly, speak eloquently, and love what is true and good.

    But can you teach narratives to grammar school students? Yes, with the Progymnasmata's Narrative stage! Find out how in this friendly guide to Classical Christian Education.
