Publisher Description
You're standing on a bridge that extends into an unknown destination. As a Lutheran educator, your vocation is an exhilarating mix of steady theology and shifting cultural trends. Talk about an age-old challenge! Each new generation of Lutheran educators creatively confronts the collision of God's Word with a changing world. This is by no means an easy task, but it matters to the Church eternally. And so it's with humility and a teachable spirit that educators like you often tap into the wisdom of teachers past and present. From sixteenth-century reformers to colleagues across the hall, fellow sojourners fuel, inform, and shape your passion for top-notch Lutheran education. That's why The Pedagogy of Faith: Essays on Lutheran Education offers a one-of-a-kind gift to our teaching community in the twenty-first century. Never before has there been a more diverse collection of authors and topics distilled into a single text on Lutheran education. The authors-theologians, professors, DCEs, school staff, missionaries, parents, and more-collectively represent hundreds of years in the educational arena. This book is not a blueprint but rather a starting point for your own thoughts, prayers, and reflections. "Since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses,... let us run with endurance the race that is set before us" (Hebrews 12:1 ESV). Book jacket.
