the purpose

The education system cannot be fixed. It must fall like ash to the ground, and a new landscape allowed to emerge. We created Gold Groves Academy to change the trajectory of the United States of America…and then the world.

freedom

The loss of freedom is always only a generation away.
We teach children a reverence for freedom, the origins of freedom, and how to protect it. And with freedom, there is imagination. With freedom, there is innovation. With freedom, there is progress.

Gold Groves Academy is the liberation of imagination


There are two mental attitudes a man may take. One makes him like a football. It has resilience and reacts strongly when force is applied to it, but it originates nothing; it never acts of itself. There is no power within it. Men of this type are controlled by circumstances and environment; their destinies are decided by things external to themselves. The Principle of Power within them is never really active at all. They never speak or act from within.

The other attitude makes man like a flowing spring. Power comes out from the center of him. He has within him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. He radiates force; he is felt by his environment. The Principle of Power in him is in constant action. He is self-active.

No greater good can come to any man or woman than to become self-active. All the experiences of life are designed by Providence to force men and women into self-activity; to compel them to cease being creatures of circumstances and master their environment. In his lowest stage, man is the child of chance and circumstance and the slave of fear. His acts are all reactions resulting from the impingement upon him of forces in his environment. He acts only as he is acted upon; he originates nothing. But the lowest savage has within him a Principle of Power sufficient to master all that he fears; and if he learns this and becomes self-active, he becomes as one of the gods.

The awakening of the Principle of Power in man is the real conversion; the passing from death to life. It is when the dead hear the voice of the Son of Man and come forth and live. It is the resurrection and the life. When it is awakened, man becomes a son of the Highest and all power is given to him in heaven and on earth.
