Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian Idea of Education as Distinguished From the Secular Idea of Education In his inaugural address the president of an American college calls attention to the fact that the institution over which he was called to preside had been "always distinctively and emphatically Christian in its motives and influence." Another, in his inaugural, says, "the colleges originated in a common impulse. Broadly stated, the impulse was religious; the force that is behind the colleges was the spirit of consecration, of service, and of sacrifice." In precise harmony with the declarations of these two presidents is the well-known motto of Harvard college, "Christo et Ecclesi," which very exactly and fitly expresses the high purpose of the men who laid in New England the foundations of our national system of schools. The schools which they planted were, speaking generally, designed to be "distinctively Christian." But what is meant by the phrase "distinctively Christian"? Why use the limiting word, "distinctively"? The answer to the latter question appears in the fact that there are so many in these later days who profess and call themselves Christians who, nevertheless, differ so widely, and even radically, among themselves in their conception of Christian truth and the Christian life, that the term "Christian" has come to be so indefinite as to convey no accurate thought.

This book was released on 2022-01-13 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is education? How and why do educators do what we do? And, in what way can and ought education be distinctively Christian? These are a few of the probing questions for which this book seeks answers. Among other contributions, Currivean's book explores a biblical philosophy of Christian education with unprecedented breadth and depth. To accomplish this objective, it considers what education is (chapter 1), what philosophy of education is (chapter 2), and what the ultimate goal of education is (chapter 3). Additionally, this book provides a never-before, Christian overview of twelve philosophies of education (chapters 4-15). Each of those chapters provides an introduction of a particular philosophy of education and some of that philosophy's exemplars. Each of those chapters also contributes a constructive, Christian critique. Chapter 16 highlights a biblical philosophy of Christian education--featuring some people, some principles, and some priorities for a biblical philosophy of Christian education, viz. pursuing excellence for the glory of God.

As a rule, the influence of purely secular colleges has been dis astrous upon the thought of those who have been educated in them. I say as a rule, because there are exceptions to this rule as to every other. But the exceptions have been where colleges, entirely secular as regards the curriculum, have been manned by Christian professors whose character and influence compensated.

Download or read book Christian Privilege in U S Education written by Kevin J. Burke and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using critical curriculum theory as its lens, this book explores the relationship between religion—specifically, Christianity and the Judeo-Christian ethos underlying it—and secular public education in the United States. Despite various 20th-century court decisions separating religion and education, the authors challenge that religion is in fact absent from public education, suggesting instead that it is in fact very much embedded in current public educational practices and discourses and in a variety of assumptions and perspectives underlying understandings of teaching, learning, and teacher preparation. The book reframes the discussion about religion and schooling, arguing that it remains in the language and metaphors of education, in the practices and routines of schooling, in conceptions of the "’child" and the "teacher" (and what happens between them in the spaces we call "learning," the "classroom," and "curriculum") as well as in assumptions about the role of schools emanating from such conceptions and in the current movement toward accountability, standardization, and testing. Christian Privilege in U.S. Education examines not whether Christianity has a place in public education but, rather, the very ways in which it is pervasive in a legally secular system of education even when religion is not a topic taught in school.
