Download or read book Leading Lutheran Higher Education in a Secular Age written by Brian Beckstrom and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-07-15 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lutheran colleges and universities occupy a distinctive space in American higher education. In an age where the dividing line between sacred and secular has become blurred, Brian Beckstrom argues that their "rooted and open" approach, combined with adaptive theological leadership, could be the best hope for faith based higher education. To do so, he provides an overview of Lutheran higher education, its history, and identity, and combines surveys of students, faculty, and staff at Lutheran institutions with leadership theory and theological reflection. Leaders at Lutheran colleges and universities will find it to be helpful in understanding their mission, identity, and vocation in a secular age, and navigating the changing cultural environment that challenges the church and higher education alike.

Why should people who study, teach, and work in colleges and universities care whether they are ''Lutheran'' or not?
