Nurturing Reflective Christians to Teach: A Valiant Role for the Nation's Christian Colleges and Uni

In the decade of social reorganization and reorientation, it seems that all values and social standards are open for review and re-certification. Schools are far from immune to the resulting political conflict and multiple polarization that sometimes results in violent controversy.

This well-constructed volume begins to answer that question.
