Book Synopsis Inspiring Faith in Schools by : Marius Felderhof
Download or read book Inspiring Faith in Schools written by Marius Felderhof and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspiring Faith in Schools addresses the privileging of secularism that appears to affect RE in countries influenced by modern western thought. The authors argue that a more engaging form of RE would emerge if religious life were to inhabit centre stage. Currently religious faith is made to hover in the wings awaiting the call to face the inquisitorial challenge of the modern day enquirer. The consequent relationship between pupil and the Divine as the purpose of study is then already intrinsically irreligious, as indicated in the Book of Job by putting God in the dock, whereas it is the pupil who should be (cross-)examining his or her life. What are the ways of exciting and engaging the young so that they begin to entertain the possibility of religious life as a genuine option for themselves? Leading scholars in philosophy and theology from the UK, Australia, Canada and the USA come together to address these questions together with RE experts. Marius Felderhof writes an Afterword summing up the challenges faced by such a re-visioning of RE.

Book Synopsis God, Grades, and Graduation by : Ilana M. Horwitz
Download or read book God, Grades, and Graduation written by Ilana M. Horwitz and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It's widely acknowledged that American parents from different class backgrounds take different approaches to raising their children. Upper and middle-class parents invest considerable time facilitating their children's activities, while working class and poor families take a more hands-off approach. These different strategies influence how children approach school. But missing from the discussion is the fact that millions of parents on both sides of the class divide are raising their children to listen to God. What impact does a religious upbringing have on their academic trajectories? Drawing on 10 years of survey data with over 3,000 teenagers and over 200 interviews, God, Grades, and Graduation (GGG) offers a revealing and at times surprising account of how teenagers' religious upbringing influences their educational pathways from high school to college. GGG introduces readers to a childrearing logic that cuts across social class groups and accounts for Americans' deep relationship with God: religious restraint. This book takes us inside the lives of these teenagers to discover why they achieve higher grades than their peers, why they are more likely to graduate from college, and why boys from lower middle-class families particularly benefit from religious restraint. But readers also learn how for middle-upper class kids--and for girls especially--religious restraint recalibrates their academic ambitions after graduation, leading them to question the value of attending a selective college despite their stellar grades in high school. By illuminating the far-reaching effects of the childrearing logic of religious restraint, GGG offers a compelling new narrative about the role of religion in academic outcomes and educational inequality"--

Book Synopsis Christian School Insights by : Dennis Demuth
Download or read book Christian School Insights written by Dennis Demuth and published by . This book was released on 2018-08-02 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Merriam-Webster defines "insight" as "the power or act of seeing into a situation." Throughout the Gospels, Jesus provided insight to his disciples, whether it was explaining the meaning of a parable, sharing events that were about to happen, or providing the understanding of a specific cause and effect in a specific context. All of us at one time or another will face situations when we need to recognize what is happening, and what to do next. Knowing that others have gone through the same situation and have succeeded is an inspiration to motivate our own success story. We trust that the insights that we share will provide motivation for success in your own life, in your classroom, and school. We can all learn from one another. "Although we all should learn from our experiences, both good and bad, there's no good reason to keep reinventing the wheel. Rather than learning from your own experiences, it is far more efficient to learn from someone else's. Although experience may be a good teacher, someone else's experience is a far better teacher. Many other people have been down the route you are traveling. Although it may not be the exact same path, they have encountered and solved many of the same problems you may be facing. By using their experiences as a starting point, you accelerate your progress" (Brian Golden, "Learn from the Experiences of Others").The Insights contained in this single volume reflect situations faced at Victory Christian School. Each presentation followed prayer and listening to what the Spirit of God wanted to share with the staff. Many topics were created as a series and were resented over several weeks. Christian School Insights may be read as a devotional. There are 18-20 Insights per chapter which is enough for two per month during the school year. There is a total of 112 Insights. A comprehensive index can be used to look up topics that may be of interest for Christian educators who are dealing with the similar concerns.
