There are many well-intentioned Christian schools in the Fayetteville, North Carolina area that seek to provide a Christian option to public schools. The Christian option usually means that they have prayer in the classroom and a Bible course required for all students. Some integrate God into history and into science. However, most have curricula and a worldview that are the same as those in non-religious private or public schools. Our children leave their sheltered Christian schools totally unprepared for the onslaught of an atheistic higher education system. Therefore, it is not surprising that many Bible-believing Christians leave college questioning their faith or becoming non-believers.
