Few people have influenced the development of Christian schools in
the Reformed tradition in North America and around the world as
much as Nicholas Wolterstorff. As a tribute to his contributions,
Calvin College education professors Gloria Goris Stronks and
Clarence W. Joldersma have drawn together the world-renowned
Christian philosopher's thoughts and reflections on Christian
education over the last three decades. The guiding principle in
making selections was the inclusion of pieces that discuss what
makes education truly Christian. Wolterstorff's writings on
education are divided into four sections that focus on the nature
of Christian education, the criticisms of Christian education,
Christian learning within a pluralistic society, and the goals of
Christian education. Of special interest is Wolterstorff's
increasing concern with the role of justice in Christian education.
Educating for Life portrays Wolterstorff's evolving thinking on
education while paying tribute to him as one of the premier
Christian philosophers of our day. Nicholas P. Wolterstorff,
longtime professor of philosophy at Calvin College, is Noah Porter
Professor of Philosophical Theology at Yale Divinity School. His
teaching and writing have influenced countless evangelical students
and scholars throughout the years. He is the author of many books
including Educating for Responsible Action, Until Peace and Justice
Embrace, and Divine Discourse. Gloria Goris Stronks and Clarence W.
Joldersma are professors in the education department at Calvin
College

"These are the papers of a conference on the theme of Rationality
in the Calvinian Tradition, held in Toronto during August 3-8,
1981, and sponsored jointly by Calvin College, the Free University
of Amsterdam and the Institute for Christian Studies
(Toronto)."--from the Introduction
Chris L. Firestone and Nathan Jacobs integrate and interpret the
work of leading Kant scholars to come to a new and deeper
understanding of Kant's difficult book, Religion within the
Boundaries of Mere Reason. In this text, Kant's vocabulary and
language are especially tortured and convoluted. Readers have often
lost sight of the thinker's deep ties to Christianity and
questioned the viability of the work as serious philosophy of
religion. Firestone and Jacobs provide strong and cogent grounds
for taking Kant's religion seriously and defend him against the
charges of incoherence. In their reading, Christian essentials are
incorporated into the confines of reason, and they argue that Kant
establishes a rational religious faith in accord with religious
conviction as it is elaborated in his mature philosophy. For
readers at all levels, this book articulates a way to ground
religion and theology in a fully fledged defense of Religion which
is linked to the larger corpus of Kant's philosophical
enterprise.
