The Spirit of Early Christian Thought
Author: Robert Louis Wilken
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300127561
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 211
Book Description
Many of the problems afflicting American education are the result of a critical shortage of qualified teachers in the classrooms. The teacher crisis is surprisingly resistant to reforms and is getting worse. This analysis of the causes underlying the crisis seeks to offer concrete, affordable proposals for effective reform. Vivian Troen and Katherine Boles, two experienced classroom teachers and education consultants, argue that because teachers are recruited from a pool of underqualified candidates, given inadequate preparation, and dropped into a culture of isolation without mentoring, support, or incentives for excellence, they are programmed to fail. Half quit within their first five years. Troen and Boles offer an alternative, a model of reform they call the Millennium School, which changes the way teachers work and improves the quality of their teaching. When teaching becomes a real profession, they contend, more academically able people will be drawn into it, colleges will be forced to improve the quality of their education, and better-prepared teachers will enter the classroom and improve the profession.

Book Description
An understanding of Christianity for the 21st century. We look at framing a Christian worldview through the use of themes and the study of genres. Six themes from the Old Testament and six themes from the New Testament. We are understanding Christianity by grounding our themes in a rational, historical reading of Christian Scriptures and then asking the most important question: "So What?" Does Bible knowledge matter anymore? Do these old stories still speak to us in relevant ways in the 21st century?

Vincent of Lérins and the Development of Christian Doctrine ()
Author: Thomas G. Guarino
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1441240713
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
The theology of Vincent of Lérins is often reduced to a memorable slogan: "We hold that faith which has been believed everywhere, always, and by everyone." Thomas Guarino argues that this "Vincentian canon" has frequently been taken out of context. This book introduces Vincent's thought and its reception in Christian history, exploring Vincent's creative and innovative understanding of the development of doctrine and showing how it informed the thought of John Henry Newman. Guarino contends that Vincent's theology contributes significantly to theology and ecumenism in the twenty-first century. The volume is the second in a series on the church fathers edited by Hans Boersma and Matthew Levering. About the Series The Foundations of Theological Exegesis and Christian Spirituality series critically recovers patristic exegesis and interpretation for contemporary theology and spirituality. Each volume covers a specific church father and illuminates the exegesis that undergirds the Nicene tradition.
