Seymour and Miller, with four other experts in the field, seek to clarify the agenda, resources, and hopes for Christian education in the twenty-first century. Gone are the days when Christian education was variously envisioned as a school, a home, an educational system, a mission agency, or a school for Christian living. These dreams revealed the conflicts Christian education was to face throughout much of the twentieth century; yet they also clarified its resources and motivated efforts on its behalf.

Modern educators such as Seymour and Miller also dream of what Christian education is and what it can become. Here they investigate five approaches through which contemporary Christian educators can develop the theory and practice of Christian education:
(1) religious instruction
(2) faith community
(3) development
(4) liberation
(5) interpretation.

Although they explore these five vital approaches from psychological, philosophical, exegetical, and sociological viewpoints, the authors agree that the central theme is still the teaching of the Good News. It is there we will discover that we are delivered for dependency on the old ways and that we are free to move into new ways of living.

Well built, minimal and modern
Color: Moss Green, Size: 9.5in x 7.9in
Bought this to help build routine for my son, rather than spending inordinate amounts of time looking for his things. It’s quality built with a sleek modern look. Very handsome.

Excellent tray
Color: Sand Brown, Size: 9.5in x 7.9in
This is an exceptionally high-quality tray. The design was well thought out and it looks amazing. I keep it in my top dresser drawer to organize extra cards for my wallet, my watch, cufflinks, and other items. I can’t say enough about the high level of quality. It stays in place, has great storage and very reasonably priced I thought.

Luxurious
Color: Sand Brown, Size: 9.5in x 7.9in
Firstly, I was very impressed by the packaging and attention to detail, from the box to the lovely wrapping. I purchased the brown and the tray is beautiful with the two-tone. I love the tree imprint on the inside. It looks very rich and the leather has a great feel to it. I also like that the logo was imprinted at the bottom/back. This would make a great gift. Great product!
