Catholic school attendance for schools using a Classical Education curriculum (sometimes referred to as Liberal Arts Education or Liberal Education) are rising. What is it, and why is it taking the world of Catholic education by storm? Dr. Daniel Gibbons, Board President of St. Jerome Institute in Washington D.C. (and an Associate Professor and Director of Undergraduate Studies in English at The Catholic University of America) joins Clark and Laura to talk about Classical Education and its place in Catholic schools. In this episode: • What is Classical Education? • The Great Books movement and its relationship with a Catholic liberal education • How does a Classical Education change its students? • Is a Catholic liberal education for everyone? • What makes a great and effective teacher? --- The Society for the Renewal of the Catholic Mind is a program created by St. Jerome Institute dedicated to fostering intellectual community beyond the classroom, particularly for friends, parents, and supporters of SJI.

A Simple House is a Catholic ministry that serves project and Section 8 neighborhoods in southeast Washington, DC and Kansas City, MO. Our Catholic missionary work involves meeting people in their neighborhoods and in their homes. Missionaries strive to meet the material and spiritual needs of the poor. While missionaries serve at A Simple House, they live a simple religious life. Each missionary attends daily Mass, says morning and evening prayer from the Catholic Church's Liturgy of the Hours, and makes time for personal prayer and scripture study.
