Gleaning from the truths in Wisdom Literature and the book, The Education of a Child by Fenelon, Mark Hamby proposes a “radical reversal” of our traditional approach to education. Commissioned to educate and prepare King Louis XIV’s incorrigible grandson to become the next king of France, Francois Fenelon wrote one of the greatest educational treatises ever written. In 1802, nearly 150 years later, Fenelon’s work was revered as the most extraordinary educational study on record, helping parents to examine and prove whether their work was vain or eternal. The weaving together of Fenelon’s insights with Proverbs 1 and 2 will reveal how parents can mentor with gentleness, joy, and patience, leading children to accept correction willingly.
