A Story of World War II and the Floods of 1953 “That’s a rather rough expression, brother Melse — ‘traitor.’ How could you call someone a traitor if he’s simply obeying the government? I would rather not hear such language from the mouth of an elder.” “I maintain that such work as building bunkers is treason against our land,” repeated David Melse. “The bunkers have a definite purpose: when armies come to liberate us from the power of the Germans, the bunkers are supposed to hold them back. Each bunker could help sink one of the naval vessels approaching our coast. And on those vessels are our friends — perhaps even our own soldiers. Reverend, you should think carefully what those bunkers represent.” Rev. Verhulst shook his head. “You people have completely the wrong idea about those bunkers. Do you really believe that Germany will one day sink to its knees before England? If you do, you’re completely mistaken, brother Melse. Germany will take control of all of Europe and will never let itself be overthrown. Germany is much too powerful to be defeated. Moreover, if you had listened carefully to last Sunday’s sermon, you would know full well how I think about these matters. The apostate covenant people spent seventy years in the grip of Babylon, and I’m sure that our time under foreign domination will not be any less.In This Hour

Charlotte Mason looked at the world and saw that it was governed by universal laws, such as the law of gravity. Then she wondered. What if there were similar laws that governed the way people learn? If we knew what those laws were, we’d be able to pursue education along the most promising lines . She devoted her life to finding the key principles of education and then developing methods to make the most of them. The result is a comprehensive picture of living and learning that breathes life into education at every level—from babyhood to the adult years. It’s not a rote system, but a flexible set of ideas that keep education in focus. These principles are for everyone concerned with teaching and learning. They are no more difficult to implement than the principle of gravity which allows you to walk, run, and even--when you know what you are doing--to soar.In Vital Harmony: Charlotte Mason and the Natural Laws of Education
