About Us

At EDiGlobal, our heartbeat is the return of the Christian intellectual tradition under the stewardship of the community of faith for the flourishing of our societies. This includes the integration of the apostolic faith with whole-family catechism, K–University education, and marketplace impact.

EDiGlobal owns and operates a number of global subsidiaries and operating groups. GDiGlobal (gdiglobal.org) supports US domestic and international higher education operations working closely with the non-profit organization Christian Halls International (christianhalls.us). EDiBrasil owns and operates homeschool.com.br and classicalconversations.com.br in order to support the rapidly expanding need for resources and community development within the Brazilian homeschool and  private schools movement.
