According to Michael Farris, the small number of students being schooled at home today is estimated to be between 3% to 5% of the school aged population. He says, "I am convinced that this small percentage of students will grow into a very large percentage of the highest leaders of the next generation who take seriously the Christian assignment of redeeming culture, especially in the mostvisible vocations. " This belief is at the heart of the focus of The Joshua Generation. "As a result of this belief and confidence in God's plan for the future, I take it very seriously when I am introduced to future senators, governors, presidents, and Supreme Court justices. Like their parents, I see great things for our nation through the Joshua Generation. "- Michael Farris
