Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religious Education and Democracy The present world situation compels a serious reexamination of the foundations of democracy. Especially does it necessitate a consideration of educational processes and materials. In the haste to achieve efficiency may it not be that some indispensable values have been sacrificed? The words of Jesus sound again with a new emphasis: "What shall it profit a man. if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" The same applies to a nation as well as to the individual. "Has democracy failed?" men are asking to-day. Has Christianity failed? These have not failed, but, as one recent writer has said, they have been found difficult and have not yet been fairly tried. Under the conviction that a fresh study of the relation of religious education to democracy would just now be especially timely, the present writer prepared for the Commission on Christian Education of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America a Survey of Week-day Religious Instruction. In this task many valuable suggestions and criticisms were made by the members of the Commission. The writer would express his peculiar obligation to the chairman, Dean W. F. Tillett, D.D.; the secretary, the Rev. H. H. Meyer, D.D.; and to the chairman of the special subcommittee appointed for this purpose, Professor W. J. Thompson, D.D. This Survey, which appeared as a part of the Quadrennial Report of the Commission, has been carefully revised and is now contained in Part I of the present volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religious Education and American Democracy President Wilson says we must make the world safe for democracy. The safety of democracy demands intelligence and godliness. The present world war will have been waged in vain if it hands democracy over to an ignorant and godless people. A democratic people must be able to think clearly and act righteously. The world will never be safe for democracy until intelligence and godliness are the common possessions of the whole human race. Democracies must learn how to make secular and religious education efficient and universal. The first chapter in this volume outlines the great system of public schools which the state is building in order that the masses of the people may have the grade of intelligence demanded for citizenship in a democracy. It also sketches the outline of a system of schools which I believe the church must build if the intelligence of the people is to be coupled with godliness. The succeeding chapters discuss in detail the problems involved in the realization of the proposed system of church schools for the American people.

Download or read book Religious Education in the Family Classic Reprint written by Henry Frederick Cope and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religious Education in the Family When the Constructive Studies were first projected the church was almost without textbooks in religious education. The Sunday school had always concerned itself with a discussion of the passages of the Bible, but had learned little about proper methods of ascertaining the significance of that literature. The most pressing need, therefore, at the beginning of the new movement in religious education was the preparation of textbooks that should direct students to the correct method of the examination of the biblical material and consideration of its meaning, in order that they might construct for themselves the life, the experience, the teaching therein contained. These Constructive Studies in the Bible have now attained a practically complete curriculum, and the series will continue to be enlarged and improved. But a thorough system of religious education will comprise in addition to a biblical curriculum many other studies. And these also ought to be constructive. That is to say, students in religion and morals should be observers, investigators, using textbooks as guides that may help them to build up right attitudes, appreciations, understandings.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religious Education and for the Healing of the Church It seems strange that Luther in neither of his treatises on the establishment of public schools speaks specifically of the religious education of the child. His catechisms were not written for the school, but for 'pastors and teachers, ' as the preface to the Small Catechism says, and for 'house-fathers, ' as the headings of the various parts say. Even Gerhard looks to the ministers and not to the schools for the religious training of the children. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religious Education in the Home Taking education as "the systematic development and cultivation of the mind and other natural powers," "Religious Education in the Home" means the systematic development and cultivation, under home influences, of the religious nature of the child. That this is a work of unsurpassed importance is plain to everyone who gives it serious thought. It may be safely asserted that no other method for the propagation of our Christian religion can compare with it. The lack of right home cultivation of the religious life is everywhere felt to be a very serious hindrance to the work of the church. The more the subject is studied the deeper will grow the conviction that in our efforts to lead the young into the religious life we have not begun early enough; that we cannot begin too early; and that we have depended too much on instruction, ignoring some things of much greater importance. That we have been at fault somewhere is clearly evident from the results. One generation of children arises after another, and always the drift of the majority is away from Christ.
