More than one million students in Australia attend schools founded by churches and other Christian organisations.
What is it that sets these schools apart?
More importantly, what is it that should set these schools apart?
In Character Reborn, James Pietsch offers a fresh examination of the unique capacities and opportunities of Christian schools in Australia today.
More than ever before, Christian schools are a significant point of contact between Christian communities and those with little or no understanding of the Christian worldview. Dr Pietsch challenges Christian educators to consider how they might maximise their opportunities to share the good news of Jesus with this wider community that is drawn to Christian schooling. To this end, he sets out an approach to education that focuses on learning character, whereby students in the Christian school context experience and practise the values of the kingdom of God – grace, compassion, kindness, and humility – as integral to their development, whatever their religious or cultural background.
This book presents an inspiring blueprint for building up today’s students as people of Christian character – preparing them for the challenges of the current age and giving them insight into the age to come.
