Welcome to Lifelong Lyceum!

Restful Rigor Preceptorials are unabashedly and intentionally Lutheran and are being offered especially to Lutheran high school students for the formation of a distinctly Lutheran classical education. Academic classes will flesh out how fundamental tenets of Lutheranism can be perceived and supported in all academic studies.

Our Unique Approach

  • Supporting families in lifelong learning
  • Offering interactive live sessions through small-audience videoconferencing
  • Teaching according to the classical pursuit of goodness, truth, and beauty
  • Cultivating the values of Western civilization: natural law, cardinal and theological virtues, Socratic questioning, syllogistic reasoning
  • Promoting the ideals of America’s founding: representative government and the rule of law for protecting people’s God-given rights to life, liberty, and property
  • Standing on the foundation of the historic Christian faith as taught in Holy Scripture and confessed in the ecumenical creeds and Augsburg Confession

Testimonials

Dr. Ryan MacPherson does an excellent job using the Socratic method to lead his students toward goodness, truth, and beauty. I have gained a wealth of knowledge from his teaching.

—Douglas, Montana

Not only does Mrs. MacPherson have a huge breadth of knowledge ranging across many fields, but she possesses that rare gift of being able to impart that knowledge to her students in a meaningful way. My sons marveled at how much they learned in a single course and appreciated the clarity with which complicated ideas were communicated. We will definitely be looking for more classes from Mrs. MacPherson!
