Introducing Christian Education

"Covers the entire gamut of Christian education.... An important resource for an introductory survey course on Christian education."--Robert C. De Vries, Calvin Theological Journal
Building on the success of his 1992 collection Foundations of Ministry (over 15,000 sold), Michael Anthony has prepared this new guide to Christian education with the help of contributors from throughout the North American Professors of Christian Education (NAPCE) organization. Introducing Christian Education fills the need in the C.E. curriculum for an introductory foundations textbook--one that provides an overview and understanding of the broad range of subjects included in C.E.--for college and seminary use.
Thirty-three chapters are offered under the following sections: 1) Foundations of C.E.;2) Developmental Perspectives of C.E.;3) Educational Implications of C.E.;4) Organization, Administration, and Leadership;5) C.E. Applied to the Family;and 6) Specialized Ministries.
