Yesterday, I spent the morning at Man Camp here at Veritas Academy . It was the first day of Man Camp—an activity laden time full of wood chopping, talk of battles and wars and the like. I have already heard a number of positive comments concerning it. Here are the links to other summer camps:
Today, I read an article from March’s edition of Touchstone on “Cops & Robbers on Why a Boy Is a Terrible Thing to Arrest” by Robert Hart (sadly, you will have to get it in the hardcopy it is not available Online). It recommends that we watch out for our culture trend to push boys away from play involving killing dragons, shooting bad guys (or at least bringing them to trial) and tearing down strongholds—particularly if we want them to someday kill dragons, conquer forces of wickedness and tear down strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:4).
