A Theologian Addresses Current Theological Issues Impinging on Christian Education

A systematic theologian offers a theological aggiornamento (bringing-up-to-date) of two critical doctrinal areas that affect Christian education: (a) the doctrine of Scripture, with particular attention to recent challenges to the inerrancy of Scripture; and (b) the doctrine of humanity, with particular focus on the latest findings from neurophysiology and current evangelical reworkings of the doctrine of theological anthropology. For each doctrinal area explored, implications for Christian educators are indicated and discussed.
