I would suggest that since the Scriptures tell us that the Church is the pillar and ground of the truth (1 Tim 3:15) that would be a good place to learn the truth.
I would further suggest that since the Bible prescribes the office of Elder for teaching the Church, there is sufficient evidence that God's way is to have the Church through its Elders educate its people.

Christian ritual costs nothing and is worth nothing. True Christian religion costs all that we have and is worth everything.
