Cruciform Faculty The Making of a Christian Professor

Cruciform Faculty The Making of a Christian Professor
$23.99

How do Christian higher education institutions orient new faculty members
to their role on a Christian campus? How do they lead faculty members
toward a deeper understanding of the Christian dimension of their place in higher education? Bible
Colleges, Christian Universities, and Seminaries need a resource that can be provided to faculty
members or be used in faculty development discussions.
This book is designed to serve as just such a resource. It provides a clear and concise portrait of the
general role of faculty from a distinctively evangelical Christian perspective. We use the
metanarrative of being formed by the cross to describe the "cruciform" role of professors as
teachers in the classroom, mentors to the students, scholars within the academy, and servants of
the church and community. Each chapter will have personal and
group reflection questions and exercises to aid in application.

Do you face well-intentioned dragons?



Every church has them--sincere, well-meaning Christians who leave ulcers, strained relationships, and hard feelings in their wake. They don't intend to be hostile; they don't consciously plot destruction or breed discontent. But they often do undermine the ministry of the church and make pastors question their calling.

Ministering to Problem People in Your Church will guide you in dealing with these challenging people. Based on real-life accounts of battle-scarred veterans, this book helps you go beyond just tolerating problem people to limiting their damage and showing them God's love. You'll discover effective strategies to turn dissidents into disciples.

This time-tested book by the editor-in-chief of Christianity Today's Leadership Journal has new chapters on using social media and caring for those with mental illness. It will help you not only preserve your sanity (and maybe your job), but minister more effectively, even to those who make life difficult.
