SEPTEMBER ESLR: This month’s ESLR is “Independent Thinkers”. Independent thinkers are students who demonstrate the ability to seek, research, analyze, and compile data using critical thinking skills drawing from a distinctively Christian worldview. (Acts 17:11) “…they searched the Scriptures, day after day to check up on Paul and Silas, to see if they were really teaching the truth.”
