The Christian presence in education has never been more
controversial. While some secularists oppose any form of religious
involvement in schools or universities, some Christians also wonder
why the churches are there. Conflicting narratives surround the
purpose of Christian involvement in education. Yet at the heart of
Christianity stands an educator, whose passion and resurrection can
be understood afresh as learning. But what does it mean to say that
Jesus was a teacher? If he was a good teacher, was he also a
learner? Is today's Christian church learning? Can educators help
the church to recover a 'learning Christ' who places learning at
the heart of the Godhead and the church? How could the Christian
churches take the educational significance of Jesus more seriously?
Christian teachers often find themselves divided between a
professional discourse on learning and making progress, and a
theological vocabulary which they do not fully own, connecting only
sporadically with their professional identity. This book helps
educators to treat their teacher identity as a theological
resource, rather than an obstacle, and in so doing to discover new
insights on Christ which can be of relevance to the wider church
and its mission.
