Book A Christian College  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Christian College Classic Reprint written by William Lewis Breckinridge and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Christian College You will allow me to address myself to you all, as Guardians of the School, whose principal charge you have seen fit to assign to me. I hold the office at your pleasure, and by your good will. On no other terms could I ever wish to hold it; and this, not only because my brethren are the persons with whom, above all others, I desire to be associated, but also and more, because the school is yours - founded, built up, and supported by the Church to which we all belong; and now, as one generation passeth away, and another generation cometh, resting on your hands, the sons come up in the place of the fathers. Believing with you, that all events are so many Divine appointments - for even the lot is cast into the lap, but the whole disposing thereof is of the Lord - I recognized His hand in the circumstances which have led me to this place, and I accepted the conclusion as the ordering of His Providence. Looking only at myself, I had shrunk from the difficult and solemn trust which it imposed - the more when I thought of the men whom I was to follow in this work.

Book The Idea of a Christian College

Download or read book The Idea of a Christian College written by Arthur Frank Holmes and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 1987 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than ten years after its publication in 1975, The Idea of a Christian College has become, in the prophetic words of Nicholas Wolterstorff, "a classic, a standard." Widely used by students, lay readers, teachers, and administrators, it provides a concise case for the Christian college and defines its distinctive mission and contribution. This revised edition is Holmes' response to the many professors and students who have read the work enthusiastically and urged the author to clarify certain ideas and to address further aspects of the overall subject. The author has extensively revised several chapters, has eliminated one-gender language, and has included two new chapters: "Liberal Arts as Career Preparation" and "The Marks of an Educated Person."--Back cover.

Book James Harris Fairchild

Download or read book James Harris Fairchild written by Albert Temple Swing and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from James Harris Fairchild: Or Sixty-Eight Years With a Christian College Few colleges of our country have chronicled a term of service so distinguished and so long as that rendered by James H. Fairchild. The aim in the preparation of the present volume has been not only to preserve the memory of his charming personality, but to see some of the really significant features of his life and work in their historical setting. In him we see the simplicity and grandeur of that Puritanism in America which had so much to do in the settlement and Christianization of our great interior and middle west. He is himself one of the noblest embodiments of a humanized form of the New England conception of Christian life and citizenship. The history of the genesis and development of the distinctively Christian colleges of America, together with the contribution they have made to the stability of our national life has not been written. It is our confident belief that the annals of one family in primitive Western Reserve will be found to have a vital place in that significant history. Many of the alumni down to the classes in the seventies have been consulted in the preparation of this volume, and some invaluable contributions have been received. Special acknowledgments are due to Mrs. Lucy Fairchild Kenaston for indispensable assistance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book A College of Colleges  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A College of Colleges Classic Reprint written by D. L. Moody and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A College of Colleges The "College of Colleges" is now known throughout the world. Representatives are present, not only from all English-speaking countries, but also from Continental Europe and from Japan. This extended representation has given its distinctive character to the Summer School of 188 9. As these young men are nearly all members of the Young Men's Christian Association, the addresses this year have been more closely related than formerly, both in theme and manner of development, to the interests of the Association. This fact, together with the greater time and attention devoted to special Association work, has called for some slight changes in the arrangement from the books of former years. An entire chapter has been devoted to a history of the Students' Volunteer Movement. Two of the longest chapters present the religious crisis in Japan, and the work of the Young Men's Christian Association in that country; conditions which came to the front in the discussion of practical Christian work. Another chapter has been introduced, descriptive of the meetings themselves, which will bring before the minds of those who have been present the blessed hours which they have spent among the beautiful hills of Northfield, while it cannot fail to be of interest to others who have not enjoyed this privilege.

Book Conceiving the Christian College

Download or read book Conceiving the Christian College written by Duane Litfin and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2004-09-24 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed to help those who are interested in Christian higher education explore anew the unique features, opportunities, and contemporary challenges of one distinct type of educational institution -- the Christian college. What distinguishes Conceiving the Christian College from the many other books on this subject is its incisive discussion of a set of crucial ideas widely misunderstood in the world of Christian higher education. Now serving in his eleventh year as president of one of the nation's foremost Christian colleges, Duane Litfin is well placed to ask pressing questions regarding faith-based education. What is unique about Christian colleges? What is required to sustain them? How do they maintain their bearing in the tumultuous intellectual seas of the twenty-first century? Litfin's themes are large, but they are meant to refocus the conceptual challenges to Christian education in ways that will strengthen both the academic environment of today's Christian colleges and their impact on culture at large.
