The classical Christian education movement is having a renaissance. Great books, rhetoric, and literature are back, but the movement often overlooks one essential ingredient: play. Without it, Christian education gets reduced to shielding children from harmful influences instead of forming them into men and women of virtue.
Rachel Woodham joins us to discuss her new book, Let There Be Play: A Classical Guide to Joyful Discovery. We talk about how great thinkers of the past understood play and discovery as part of moral and spiritual formation. We also cover practical ways to make room for play in education, and how play can transform the lives of adults too.
