In this episode of CrossPolitic, Gabe welcomes Larry Taunton, author and columnist with bylines in USA Today, The Atlantic, Spectator, CNN and beyond, to discuss the critical battle over education in America. Known for debating leading atheists and Muslims including Christopher Hitchens, Taunton brings his sharp analysis and hard-won perspective on faith, culture, and politics to examine why homeschooling has become essential for Christian families. The conversation explores Taunton's journey from military base public schools to becoming a homeschooling advocate after witnessing the radicalization happening in elite preparatory schools 30 years ago. Taunton emphasizes that youth are looking for meaning and mission - and when parents don't provide it, kids will find it in destructive ideologies.
