Schools as Communities eBook James L Drexler

Excellent book for school leaders. Changed the way I think about school. Each chapter is by a different author, so you can easily read them as stand alone articles. But the book is also coherent when read as a whole.

Schools as Communities eBook James L Drexler Reviews

The notion of God's people living in relationship with one another is at the heart of the biblical teaching of the Kingdom of God. Christians are regularly referred to in the Bible as a plural group - the body of Christ, the family of God, the people of God, the bride of Christ - and not as privatized individuals on their own. Despite the "rugged individualism" that is so prevalent in American culture, Christians are not a bunch of "Lone Rangers" but part of a redeemed human community.

Further, we are created in the image of God. We reflect the fact that this one God exists eternally in the tri-personal relationship of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. As God exists relationally, so do human beings created in His image. Simply stated, we are hardwired for relationships. To be certain, the fall of mankind has marred that image, but one of the beautiful realities of redemption in Christ is that not only is the relationship between God and man reconciled, but the varied relationships between human beings can be repaired as well - in our families, in our churches, in our neighborhoods, and in our schools.

As Christian schools and Christian school leaders pursue the principles described in Schools as Communities, a new and vibrant sense of community - the manifestation of the Kingdom of God on earth - will emerge not only transforming God's people but our culture as well. This is an unique resource for Christian schooling.

So, who needs to read this book?

--Educational leaders who want to stress the biblical importance of relationships and community as together we pursue mercy, justice, and faithfulness in our schools. Already, administrative teams in some schools are reading and discussing the book together.
--Teacher Education programs and graduate educational programs of all types that are training teachers and administrators for our schools will want to use Schools as Communities as a primary textbook.
--Teachers who are seeking to form community within their classrooms and in their schools, and who desire to model and lead their students into understanding God's new society. Groups of teachers are reading the book for their professional development.
--Parents who want a fresh look at the eternal investment they are making in their children's Christian education. Working with Christian teachers in fulfilling the biblical mandates to train up our children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord is a thrilling task.
--Pastors who want to walk hand in hand with Christian families and Christian schools in seeking to transform our culture for Jesus Christ. They will appreciate how and why schools operate the ways they do.
