Description
Summary:In the context of a brief sketch of Protestant and evangelical higher education in North America, this article examines the dynamics of Christian higher education in the Reformed family of institutions that is part of the International Association for the Promotion of Christian Higher Education (IAPCHE). An analysis of various modes of interpreting the relationship of faith and learning (complementarist, integrationist, and integralist) is introduced. Similarities and differences between these approaches are linked to two strands of thought within the Reformed family. The practical implications of these similarities and differences are explored in relation to discussions concerning the development of a Reformed university in North America.
