Drawing on the work of cultural analysts like Lesslie Newbigin, Richard John Neuhaus and Charles Taylor, Philip W. Eaton proposes an alternative idea of Christian higher education that aims to equip students for responsible engagement in our post-Christian world.

Reviews

"With keen insight from years of thoughtful reflection on the topic, Phil Eaton provides an extraordinarily powerful description of our culture torn from its roots by a cacophony of voices that have us in a sea of bewilderment. Globally, cultures have lost their way, tangled in a complex maze of disbelief, with shattered cultural mainstays strewn all about and a broken compass that can't discern a true direction.?With great energy and passion Eaton challenges Christian higher education to excel with a winsome engagement of cultures with our truth claims of Scripture, to be in the world expressing love to the world but not of the world, and using appropriate language the world will understand to build trust and convey the good news, joy and hope of the gospel. This book is an absolute must-read for leaders in Christian higher education who are serious about transforming lives to impact the world for Christ and his kingdom!"--Paul R. Corts, president, Council for Christian Colleges & Universities
