Description
Summary:There is a widespread and profound concern in the United States as to the status of Christian education in our colleges. But there is no clear idea as to just what constitutes Christian education. This article urges four things essential to such education: (1) training in the appreciation of spiritual values; (2) the development of right motives; (3) the establishment of Christian patterns of social behavior in college; (4) the formulation of a working philosophy of life, which shall harmonize spiritual faith and scientific knowledge.
