There is hardly anything more destructive you can do to child’s faith than to send him to a “Christian” college/university that is theologically liberal, trending left, or only nominally Christian.

And it will be the “Christian” part of the curriculum—the Bible and religion classes—that will do the most damage. They will try to convince your child that the Bible is deeply flawed and that orthodox Christian faith is bigoted and immoral.

They will also try to convince your child that a liberal vision of the faith is the only viable one in the modern world, but they will fail to tell them that a liberal vision of the faith is “Christian” in name only.

Students under the spell of theological liberalism are often tempted to use their newfound skepticism as a pretext for all manner of immorality. If they become convinced that the Bible isn’t true & the faith is a farce, they will eventually give themselves over to impurity.

Do not send your child into this kind of environment. It’s far better to send them to a secular university with a good church nearby and vibrant campus ministries than to send them to a “Christian” school that is trending left.

If you want to send your child to a Christian school, do your homework and make sure that the school is holding fast to an orthodox confession that the administration and faculty are held accountable to. @BoyceCollege, where I teach, is like that. There are others as well.
