Principle Approach 101

Dr. Max Lyons will present one and a half hour interactive session live via zoom.

(Typically) Every 3rd Wednesday of the month, 1:30-3:00 pm EST

September 20, October 11, November 15

Please note that this is not a series. Each month’s introductory lecture is the same. If you want to learn more about the Principle Approach in an in-depth manner, consider the 10 week Renewing the Mind course or contact me for additional resources.

In this live, interactive presentation Max Lyons will present the Principle Approach, the Biblical method of teaching and learning that begins with reasoning from the Word of God to identify the foundational principles of each subject. This reflective process then governs research from varied sources, reasoning with practical implications, relating learning to life and recording of personal insights, to forge a thinking, productive and godly character. What distinguishes the Principle Approach from the classical approach or traditional Christian education? Join and find out!

Max will give a 40 minute lecture with PowerPoint and written materials, followed by 30 or so minutes of live Q&A.

Max Lyons served as teacher and administrator in three Christian schools since 1979. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics from Virginia Wesleyan College, a Masters in Christian School Administration from Regent University, and a Ph.D. in Christian Education from Whitefield Theological Seminary.  He currently serves as Director of Teaching Services at The Foundation for American Christian Education. He is the author or co-author of nine books. Max and his wife Margie have four adult children and eight grandchildren.
