- Development
- Pocket College began when Dr. RJ Rushdoony began to record his lessons and lectures on simple audio cassettes starting in the 1960s.
These tapes were then sent to subscribers and to the Mt. Olve Tape Library run by George Calhoun of Mississippi.
Pocket College is a free service from Arnold Jagt (517)546-8780 arnold.jagt@gmail.com www.facebook.com/arnoldjagt from Howell, MI where he lives with his dog Charlie.

- Accreditation
- The first question I get when introducing people to Pocket College is: "Is it accredited?"
Where this programming came from I am not sure but it is based on a myth. The myth is that accreditation from the state will increase your chance of success. This is only true if you measure success in terms of being an agent for the state.
God, YHWH, promises blessings in every area of life if we obey Him (Deut. 28). The idol-state (I hate to say god-state) or Moloch has similar promises for those that obey and worship it. Which one should Christian students put their faith in?
Christian students must understand the true source of success: the free market under God's Law, not the socialist world of statist regulation and welfare.
This is proven more and more clearly as time go on. 1/2 of all college students drop out. 80% of those who do graduate move back in with mom and dad. Almost all of them are loaded down with a formidable amount of unforgivable debt.
"Yes, but I need that piece of paper to get in the door." No, you don't. Offer an employer in the free market 3 months of work, without pay, so he can evaluate you at no risk, and you can get any job you want. And you will have just saved yourself 4 years of drudgery in the salt mines of humanism and decades of debt slavery.
Accreditation is the road to compromise with the world, as Rushdoony explains so clearly.
Pocket College is here to serve the remnant without compromise. The Internet offers a plethora of educational resources at low or no cost that students can take advantage of to build technical skills. And the free market always needs people to serve others within the context of Biblical Law.

- Website
- Christ Rules undertook to digitize and organize these tapes in 2003-2009. The 10 Million Word Project and a single generous donor resulted in the transcription of all the audio recordings marked with a ">". With the cooperation of the Chalcedon Foundation and Mark Rushdoony we have now enabled access to not only the audio recordings but also the books by Dr. RJ Rushdoony. Together they constitute the finest educational resource available for the equipping of the saints for the Kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ.
