<p><b>A comprehensive source that demonstrates how 21<sup>st</sup> century Christianity can interrelate with current educational trends and aspirations</b></p> <p><i>The Wiley Handbook of Christianity and Education</i> provides a resource for students and scholars interested in the most important issues, trends, and developments in the relationship between Christianity and education. It offers a historical understanding of these two intertwined subjects with a view to creating a context for the myriad issues that characterize—and challenge—the relationship between Christianity and education today. </p> <p>Presented in three parts, the book starts with thought-provoking essays covering major issues in Christian education such as the movement away from God in American education; the Christian paradigm based on love and character vs. academic industrial models of American education; why religion is good for society, offenders, and prisons; the resurgence of vocational exploration and its integrative potential for higher education; and more. It then looks at Christianity and education around the globe—faith-based schooling in a pluralistic democracy; religious expectations in the Latino home; church-based and community-centered higher education; etc. The third part examines how humanity is determining the relationship between Christianity and education with chapters covering the use of Christian paradigm of living and learning; enrollment, student demographic, and capacity trends in Christian schools after the introduction of private schools; empirical studies on the perceptions of intellectual diversity at elite universities in the US; and more.</p> <ul> <li>Provides the breadth and depth of knowledge necessary to gain a sophisticated and nuanced understanding of the complex relationship between Christianity and education and its place in contemporary society</li> <li>A long overdue assessment of the subject, one that takes into account the enormous changes in Christian education</li> <li>Presents a global consideration of the subject</li> <li>Examines Christian education across elementary, secondary, and post-secondary levels</li> </ul> <p><i>The Wiley Handbook of Christianity and Education</i> will be of great interest to Christian educators in the academic world, the teaching profession, the ministry, and the college and graduate level student body.</p>
