About this listen

Welcome to the Paideia Academy Podcast, a resource for the entire Paideia Academy community created to highlight how our school practically implements the classical, Christ-centered model in order to help our students become lifelong learners and disciples of Christ who are prepared to defend their faith and live as citizens of the kingdom of God on this side of eternity.

Paideia Academy (located in Knoxville, TN) is an instrument to assist Christian parents in carrying out the biblical mandate to bring up their children in the paideia (training and admonition) of the Lord. We employ the Western classical tradition of learning, rooted in a distinctly Christian worldview, to cultivate godly affections and wisdom in our students in order to graduate virtuous men and women, whose love for Christ advances the kingdom of God.

New episodes drop on Friday mornings at 7AM. Expect to hear conversations with faculty, staff, students, parents, board members, and more!

May we all remember the school verse as we seek to "glorify God and enjoy Him forever." Psalm 115:1 says, “Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory.”
