Education and the Image of God

Christian educators rightfully desire to offer an education that reflects both the goals and processes which are consistent with biblical truth. This requires that educators be sensitive to those doctrines and concepts which best inform theory and practice. In this article we examine the doctrine of the image of God and its implications for education. Threats to the image which can be seen in the society are briefly presented as well as some suggestions for the administration and practice of schooling

Worldview as Worship: The Dynamics of a Transformative Christian Education

Worldview as Worship contends that the approach taken by most evangelical educators to the issue of worldview transformation has neglected to address two fundamental components of worldviews. First, that our initial worldviews are not philosophical systems but rather faith dispositions and that worldview transformation cannot simply present the biblical worldview as a more rational or logical system, but must address issues of the heart as well as the mind. Second, unlike philosophies that are individual, worldviews are communal and are learned and transformed within the context of community practice. Appealing to Paul\u27s teaching in Romans 12:1-2, Worldview as Worship approaches the renewing of your mind as the result of the believer\u27s presentation of themselves as a holy sacrifice . . . which is your spiritual service of worship.https://digitalcommons.cedarville.edu/faculty_books/1009/thumbnail.jp
