Listen "Can Education Save Civilization? with Dr. Louis Markos"
Episode Synopsis
What’s the real purpose of education? Is it just about passing tests—or passing the torch of civilization itself?In this episode, Dr. Louis Markos, professor, prolific author, and champion of classical Christian education, returns to share insights from his new book, Passing the Torch: An Apology for Classical Christian Education. Drawing from Plato to C.S. Lewis, he makes the compelling case that education is soul formation, not social engineering—and classical Christian education is the only model robust enough to raise morally self-regulating, virtuous citizens.Discover why reading the great books is more than academic—it’s civilizational. Learn how truth, goodness, and beauty still anchor us in a culture adrift. And be encouraged: this is not a nostalgic movement—it’s a necessary revival for the future.🎧 Join us as we revisit this must-hear episode and rediscover the powerful, culture-shaping purpose of classical Christian education.Special Thanks to our partners who make BaseCamp Live possible:ZipCastWilson Hill AcademyClassic Learning TestGordon CollegeClassical Academic PressLife Architects CoachingLight Phone
