Philippians Test

I have been asked so often, "Why don't you just transfer your children to the public school. It's cheeper and most of the kids turn out just fine?"
There are a million reasons....... but here is my reason today....

Allison, my fourth grader, brought home her test paper on Philippians and this is what they learned:
1. Real joy comes from knowing Christ Jesus.
2. We can be joyful in every Situation
3. We can keep our joy by Prayer, Fellowship, and Thanksgiving.
(These were fill in the blanks)


The rest of the test was essay:
Name the purposes of the book of Philippians?
Answer: To teach joy and preach joy. To help the people resist false teaching that would discourage them in their walk with Christ. (this is her written answer)

Name two good characteristics of the Philippians?
Answer: The people in Plilipi (mispelled oops) were good because they were joyful and generous.
**** Traits I would like to see my children immulate

According to Philippians 4:4-7 how can we experience God's peace?
Answer: By prayer and pititian, to a God that will listen and answer in his time. (a few mispellings but she's got it.)

Hope this encourages your heart and explains some of why we send our children to a school, which I've been told is silly.
God Bless all the parents today, as we train our children, in the way they should go.
