Your Family Is Paying Too Much for Food—Sabotage
Black families spend an average of $270 per week on groceries.[1] That is over $14,000 per year just to feed your household. The greatest issue is that Blacks pay disproportionately higher prices than white families for the same food.[2] This is a systemic issue embedded in the fabric of this nation — designed to perpetuate wealth flowing out of the Black community.
Supermarket redlining is a real concept that results in fewer grocery options, higher prices, and limited access to fresh, healthy produce in Black neighborhood stores.[3] While other communities enjoy competitive pricing and abundant choices, our families are forced to pay premium prices for basic necessities unless we drive to “the other side of town” to shop for food.
Economic oppression calls for Kingdom dominion. That is how we break free from the vicious cycle of oppression. What if your kindergartener could learn skills that will create a legacy that preserves money and good health for you and future generations in your family while building generational wealth? End Times Education® requires a different kind of curriculum. It requires us to teach our students to LEAD: Leadership, Entrepreneurship, Agriculture, and Dominion. School as usual will not equip our children to break cycles. We teach our children to break free from oppression using Kingdom solutions.
The Kingdom Solution: Agricultural Science Education
During a severe famine, Isaac lived in the land of Gerar. Unlike his father Abraham, who had fled to Egypt during a similar famine, Isaac stayed and farmed per instructions from the Most High God. Isaac sowed crops in the famine-stricken land, an act that demonstrated his trust in God’s provision over dire circumstances. The Bible records that “in that same year he reaped a hundredfold, and the LORD blessed him” (KJV). This miraculous yield from his crops in the midst of scarcity illustrates that agricultural success comes not only from favorable conditions, but from God’s blessing on diligent labor and radical obedience.
We have the same authority to take dominion through agriculture and overcome famine and economic recessions. We do not continue to react to economic oppression as victims, but we plant in a famine and reap the Blessing that makes us rich with no sorrow added. This is an End Times Kingdom solution. At Chosen Ones Academy®, we teach your children Kingdom solutions through hands-on agricultural science. We teach them to break free from economic systems designed to keep them dependent and poor. We teach them that one way to overcome economic dependency is through agriculture. When you grow your own food, you take dominion over your own economy. Research from the National Gardening Association shows that home vegetable gardens produce an average of $677 worth of food with only $238 in material costs.[4] Money stays in your household instead of flowing to corporations that do not consider the needs of your family.
Agricultural Science: What Your Kindergartener Will Learn
Your five-year-old will learn practical science skills through the discipline of agriculture. These skills will produce immediate economic results for your family:
Seed-to-Harvest Cycles—Understanding how to plant, nurture, and harvest food means your family can produce fresh vegetables year-round.
Soil Preparation and Composting—Understanding how to create nutrient-rich soil from kitchen scraps and yard waste using resources you already have.
Seasonal Planning—Understanding which crops grow best in each season, ensuring continuous food production—knowing the Most High may instruct you to plant crops out of season causing you to supernaturally reap one hundred fold.
Preservation Techniques—Learning to can, freeze, and dry produce which means the abundance of your preserves will feed your family through winter.
The Math That Changes Everything
How does saving money through gardening impact your household? If your family spends on average $270 per week on groceries ($1,170 per month), a reduction through home gardening saves you $292.50 monthly. Now you are able to see a financial impact so that you can do the following:
- Pay off debt and break free from interest payments
- Build an emergency fund to prepare for End Time circumstances
- Invest in your children’s education
- Start a business
- Finance Kingdom work
- Save for real estate and land ownership – reclaiming what was stolen from our ancestors
End Times Education® empowers your children and equips them to break cycles of economic oppression that have held Black families captive for generations.
The Spiritual Foundation
Genesis 1:29 tells us, “And God said, ‘Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit. You shall have them for food.’”
As we prepare for the return of Christ, we must also prepare to survive the perilous times ahead and before He returns. When your child learns agricultural science at Chosen Ones Academy®, they learn to operate in the Kingdom economy that God established from the beginning. They learn that provision comes from understanding and stewarding the Most High God’s creation, not from dependence on systems designed to extract wealth from our communities. They learn how to overcome the curses of Deuteronomy 28 through radical obedience to the Most High God.
Why Teach Agricultural Science in Kindergarten?
Habits, mindsets, and skills become foundational during early childhood. A 2022 comprehensive and systematic review published in BMC Public Health examined school garden-based programs across multiple studies and found that shorter interventions (less than a year) integrating with classroom education and intervening at younger ages (6-15 years old) were most effective in improving children’s nutritional knowledge and healthy eating practices.[5] The research specifically noted that programs are more effective when conducted at younger ages, particularly in pre- or primary school-age children.[6]
But beyond the academic benefits, something more powerful happens through Agricultural Science. When a kindergartener learns to plant seeds, water the seeds daily, watch the seeds grow into food, and feed their family from the harvest from those seeds, they learn truths that shape their lives forever: I have the power to create provision. I am not dependent on systems that do not value me. I can produce wealth with my own hands through the power of Holy Spirit.
This is the mindset that breaks generational poverty. These are the Kingdom principles that build generational wealth.
A Pivotal Decision
Will you continue operating in economic systems designed to keep you paying premium prices for basic necessities? Or will you equip your child with knowledge that breaks those chains? You have a decision to make.
Isaiah 54:14-15 declares, “You shall be far from oppression.” This is a spiritual promise. This is a practical reality when you operate in Kingdom principles. When your family learns to produce food, you literally escape the oppression of exploitative grocery pricing, food deserts, food insecurity, and economic systems designed to sabotage wealth in Black communities.
Enroll Your Child Today
Chosen Ones Academy®’s Agricultural Science Course starts your kindergartener on a path to economic freedom. While other children are learning to be consumers, your children will learn to be wealth producers. While other families remain dependent on systems that exploit them, your family will build food security and financial independence in a time of civil and economic unrest.
The statistics say Black families are economically oppressed. The research shows we pay more and have less. But you have the power to change that trajectory for your household through Kingdom principles. You have the opportunity to give your child skills that produce wealth instead of devouring it. Agricultural Science is a Kingdom solution.
