Smith gave us words to explain many of the reasons we are starting a mission parish and teaching at a classical Christian school. He expressed the ways ancient faith and worship prepare us to love God and love our neighbors. He described how classical education recognizes the importance of developing good habits and virtues to form disciples. So we returned home and told our respective Bible studies about this new book coming out that explained the goals of our mission parish. Both the men and women determined to read the book (in addition to our regular study of the scriptures and teachings of the saints).
