Dr. Forsberg reflects on the stark contrast between Christian and secular education, her efforts to build a faith-based community among professors, and her decades-long mission to reintroduce Christian thought into higher education. The conversation explores concerns about ideological influence in universities, the loss of moral and historical grounding in society, and the importance of restoring truth through education, publishing, and cultural engagement. Together, they emphasize the urgent need to bring faith, critical thinking, and a strong moral compass back into schools, while offering hope through grassroots initiatives, renewed scholarship, and a growing movement to reclaim the spiritual foundations of Western education. If you are interested in our school, make sure to check out our website:🌐 https://www.sjp2academy.com/ Follow us on social media: 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sjp2academy/ 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sjp2academy 🐦 X (formerly Twitter): https://x.com/SJPIIAcademy ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/oYIplMj6Qsq3gAomaVZ2zAPT0Pa-I7uGUTcb3F6OulQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS85ZDM0/NjM3NGE4MjI2ZDVj/NDU3ZjMwNWRiNjli/YmEyNi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
