Anthology of select articles from a notable Protestant periodical
 
For forty years, from 1951 to 1990, The Reformed Journal set the
standard among both evangelical and mainline Protestants for
top-notch, venturesome reflection on a range of issues as diverse
as the civil rights movement, the rebirth of feminism, the Vietnam
War, South African apartheid, the plight of Palestinian Christians,
and the rise of the Christian Right. With a lively, progressive mix
of comment, opinion, and reviews it addressed the whole world of
public life and expression from a coherent Reformed point of view.
 
In The Best of The Reformed Journal James Bratt and Ronald Wells
have collected and assembled a critical anthology of the
periodical?'s best representative writing, selecting pieces that
cut across time and content and that exemplify the Journal?'s
long-running position at the cutting edge of thoughtful Christian
engagement with culture.
				
		  
	 
	
 
                            
                                
	
	
		
			
		
		
	
	
	
		
			
				
			
	
 
			
			
			
In the past thirty years there has been a sea change in North
American intellectual life regarding the role of religious
commitments in academic endeavors. Driven partly by post-modernism
and the fragmentation of knowledge and partly by the
democratization of the academy in which different voices are
celebrated, the appropriate role that religion should play is
contested. Some academics insist that religion cannot and must not
have a place at the academic table; others insist that religious
values should drive the argument. Faithful Imagination in the
Academy takes an approach based on dialogue with various
viewpoints, claiming neither too much nor too little. All the
authors are seasoned academics with many significant publications
to their credit. While they all know how the academy operates and
how to make worthwhile contributions in their respective
disciplines, they are also Christians whose religious commitments
are reflected in their intellectual work.
