Description
According to many observers, education is in a state of crisis. There is a crisis of declining adademic standards, a literacy crisis, a moral value crisis, a crisis in behavior and discipline, a racial crisis, a funding crisis, and a teacher crisis. Within this context, what is the role of Christian schools, and how do they accomplish their purpose? In this book, John Bolt develops a philosophy of Christian education based on a narrative approach. After addressing critical questions about contemporary education, the book examines some of the dominant themes in contemporary culture, identifying the consequences of individualism, secularism, pluralism, and paganism. The study goes on to explore several "Christian" threats to Christian education: indoctrination, evangelism, prophecy, and excellence. Additional chapters look carefully at the Christian mind and at the "rediscovery" of narrative. - Back cover.
