WHAT SCHOOL
IS THE RIGHT CHOICE
FOR YOU?

Jaime writes in an Illustrated Journal(ist) style
about all school models in Minnesota.

THIS LITTLE SCHOOLHOUSE CRITIQUE

EDITION: South Washington County

Standing on the edge between two worlds of schooling – public and non-public – is an interesting place to be. It is here on the fringe that Jaime observes worldviews collide without their ever even meeting face-to-face. Order and chaos dance harmoniously unaware that their song is of old, one and the same, yet each to find his end in stark contrast. While the school named “Order” dances in the light of day, the school named “Chaos” dances in the dark of night. Both Order and Chaos find their place in the Book of Books, where they rarely if ever meet in the middle.

THE BIBLE IS: Thy Kingdom Com(ing)

If the Bible is a message for us, then what IS that message? The Gospels of Jesus Christ are placed at the CENTER of the Bible, and they reveal how the Son of God became the new Adam and the new Israel to fulfill what Adam and Israel could not. The Gospels tell us WHEN and HOW Christ came, and right away Matthew introduces us to the King. This King does not look like any other king the world has ever seen … Why do you think that is? Jesus speaks of our TREASURE not on earth, but in heaven. His promise is an unbreakable CONTRACT, called a Covenant. His body is the BREAD of Life and His provision is MEASURED out for the salvation of every believer. We are His Holy Temple, the messengers of GOOD NEWS. Later in the four Gospels, John reveals a fourth dimension of ART-filled POETIC writing that elevates our understanding of this compassionate Son Of GOD in the flesh. In list-form, the state-run district-defined literacy skills look an awful lot like biblical-defined literacy skills – LISTS & MAPS, MONEY & CONTRACTS, NUTRITION & MEASUREMENT, ART & MUSIC, HOW-TO FIX-IT INSTRUCTIONS & “NEWS” MESSAGING. Could it be these institutions of knowledge and learning are not as progressive as modern elites claim them to be? After all, this story has been around for Millennia. There can only be one male lion in a kingdom. King Jesus first came to redeem us as a ransom for many from the counterfeit king. The Good News is that the REAL King paid off our debt to the FAKE king. It has been done! Our sins of indebtedness are forgiven. This is WHY Jesus came as a servant the first time SO THAT when He comes as King of His heavenly kingdom the second time we are not denied entry, but we are ushered in with all our sins washed clean by the blood of Jesus. The time is NOW to choose life with King Jesus or death with His counterfeit.

THE BIBLE IS: A Message for us

The Bible is a story from beginning to end that is so masterfully organized in its literary structure that no other story can compare – in depth, in metrical precision, in mathematical genius, in profound impact, and in communicating FUNCTION (purpose) simply through the Creator’s FORM (vessel). FORM TENDS TO NATURALLY FOLLOW FUNCTION in this way. There are three main aspects to every story – character, plot and setting. The first sentence of the Bible contains 7 Hebrew words, and the second sentence contains 14, and yet in just two simple sentences the Author establishes TIME, CHARACTER, ACTION, and PROBLEM. From there, we read about the SOLUTION to this problem, and it repeats in every book like the beat of a metronome to the end. Learn how to read the language of your child’s school by first learning the language of the Bible. The Good News may have more to teach us about our world than the news of man.

Game of Complimentary Opposites

Sometimes words just look like clutter on a page … Sometimes messages sound like noisy gongs and clanging cymbals (1 Corinthians 13:1) … especially with so many words being thrown at us day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute, second… by… second. The Director of Teaching and Learning for Secondary education in South Washington County Schools says, “Literacy is Everywhere.” … To that I say, “Yes! Like most district communication, this is a message that SEEMS easy to understand.

In the same way as playing catch is about giving and receiving the ball, so too is literacy about messages given and received. Literacy is supposed to be a relationship of two after all … as in listening AND speaking … reading AND writing.

Not only is literacy everywhere, but so is the Bible, a book whose words miraculously harmonize with the Word of the world. As I turn my attention toward the Bible as Literature, the two-sided nature of literacy becomes very REAL. It cannot be a one-sided act or a single sensory experience alone.
