Education and Pedagogy for Life

I just wanted readers of this blog to be aware that my latest book has just been released internationally. This is a book that tackles the tricky question of what might an authentic faith-based school look like. While this is about education in Christian schools, readers of other faiths might find it of interest.

The book Pedagogy & Education for Life: A Christian Reframing of Teaching, Learning, and Formation' has been released in paperback, hardback and Kindle editions.

The blog that I've been writing - Education, Pedagogy and Formation - in association with the release of the book, might also be of interest to Christian teachers and educators who seek authentic models for Christian education.


Its chapters include:
