Education has the power to shape culture through the passing on of traditions, narratives, and values across generations.
Profiling five distinct paradigms of education through different eras in history, this book casts a vision for a renewal of Christian education—essential for bringing hope to our postmodern world. Understanding the role of education in the reformation of societies will enable churches, families, and schools to reclaim their task for the spread of the gospel in our world today.
- Designed as a well-rounded introduction to the study of education from a Christian perspective
- Profiles the perspectives of educational leaders throughout history, including Jesus, Paul, Augustine of Hippo, Martin Luther, Horace Bushnell, and George A. Coe
- Includes reflection questions and a list of resources for further study
