Ep. 186 - Shaping Christian Critical Thinkers with New Saint Andrews College President Ben Merkle

Graduating leaders who shape culture living faithfully under the Lordship of Jesus Christ is the mission statement of New Saint Andrews College. President Ben Merkle, reminds us that our child’s soul is at stake and choosing a Biblically-based college instead of a secular institution, is critical. At New Saint Andrews College in Moscow, Idaho, students are equipped with a particular set of intellectual skills that give them a foundation rooted in God’s Word. Ben reveals that colleges today - even Christian colleges - are compromised because they take federal funding, which his college refuses to receive. This school also offers financial freedom from heavy student debt, intellectual freedom to assess and debate ideas, and the freedom of faith found in Jesus Christ for every single student.
