  At what point can a Christian teacher no longer be part of a public education system that requires them to participate in teaching destructive ideologies and advancing immoral agendas on young children? 
   
  John Stamper reached that tipping point as a teacher in the Chicago Public School System and made the decision to quit his job and pull back the curtain on what’s happening in public schools today. 
   
  You’ve seen the stories on the news – our national education system has an agenda, being implemented under the guise of fairness, equality, and racial justice to children. However, this book will open your eyes to: 
   
  The indoctrination process through mandatory teacher training that implements these radical ideologies in schools without parental knowledgeThe danger and division created by critical race theory and gender theory being promoted in public schoolsHow Marxist, socialist, and communist ideologies are dominating public schools, and how you move forward with homeschooling your children 
   
  For generations, teachers have been excellent role models, investing their time and energy into fundamental lessons. However, today a growing number think they, the school board, and their school system know more than parents about what should be taught to students. You need to know what is going on in your child’s school and be prepared for the conflict of values that you may have to face. 
   
  You have options.

  The Battle of Agincourt -...

  The Battle of Agincourt, fought on October 25, 1415, stands as one of the most celebrated military victories in English history. It was a defining moment in the Hundred Years’ War, a prolonged conflict between England and France that spanned over a century. Agincourt not only showcased the military brilliance of King Henry V but also demonstrated the effectiveness of the English longbow against heavily armored French knights. The battle’s significance goes beyond a single day of combat—it influenced the course of the war, shaped national identities, and left an enduring legacy in both military history and cultural memory. 
  To fully understand Agincourt, one must first examine the broader conflict in which it took place. The Hundred Years’ War (1337–1453) was a series of intermittent battles and political struggles between England and France, primarily over territorial claims and the right to rule France. The origins of the war can be traced back to the complex feudal relationships of medieval Europe. The English monarchy held vast territories in France, including Aquitaine, a rich and strategically important region. However, growing tensions between the English and French crowns, combined with disputes over succession, led to open warfare. 
  A key factor in the war was the question of who had the legitimate right to the French throne. In 1328, the death of Charles IV of France left the French crown without a direct male heir. Under French succession laws, Philip VI of the House of Valois was chosen as king. However, England’s King Edward III, who was the grandson of a previous French king through his mother, claimed the throne as well. His assertion of this right in 1337 marked the official beginning of the Hundred Years’ War.
