Title: A More Human Christian Education: Cultivating and Ordering the Great Identities
Abstract: We suggested in the last chapter that Christian colleges and universities should seek the redemptive development of humans and human creations. This vision of Christian humanism would mean that an institution's moral purpose would extend beyond shaping good professionals or citizens, but it would not neglect these identities. Instead, it would understand these identities as minor loves that should be shaped in light of love for God. This chapter engages in an exercise of moral imagination about how Christian colleges and universities could further a redemptive form of human development that encompasses these identities.KeywordsGeneral EducationMoral IdentityGood StudentGood CitizenCivic EducationThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
