Wisdom and Eloquence for Parents

With the third decade of the twenty-first century solidly upon us, perhaps the great question for our day is “Where are the Shepherds?” Have the skills, knowledge, virtues, and wisdom that once produced men and women of character worth trusting—cultural, political, and spiritual leaders worth following—been lost forever? Have we as a society forgotten how to build these qualities into developing shepherd boys and girls? In this audiobook version of Wisdom and Eloquence for Parents, read with clarity and warmth by Joelle Hodge, MAT, classical Christian educators Dr. Robert Littlejohn and Charles T. Evans draw from the foundational principles outlined in their seminal 2006 work, Wisdom and Eloquence: A Christian Paradigm for Classical Education to answer these questions with a resounding “no!” Together with family and parenting counselor Keith A. McCurdy, the authors present updated selections from the original text and new content written specifically for parents, providing a compelling case for classical Christian education as the surest path to forming wise and eloquent servant-leaders who are equipped to shepherd their generation as lifelong learners, rational thinkers, creative problem solvers, and faithful Christians.
