Faith And Learning
$22.99
A rich and practical handbook offering tools for assessing and reporting Christian college faculty members’ faith-learning integration in teaching, research, and service.
Christian colleges expect new and continuing faculty to articulate clearly an understanding of the impact that Christian faith has on their teaching, research, and service. They also expect their faculty to be able to assess and demonstrate that they are realizing their understanding in their ongoing work as scholars and teachers. Many faculty find this dimension of their work-often labeled the integration of faith and learning-confusing and difficult to assess and describe.
This volume begins with two useful tools: a working conception of faith/learning integration specifically for Christian college faculty, and an outline of what deans, provosts, and tenure-promotion committees typically expect faculty to know and do.
Introducing the highly regarded framework of ernest boyer and the Carnegie Foundation (Scholarship Reconsidered, 1990), the book then examines teaching, research, and service, weaving together three conversational threads: boyar’s understanding of what scholarship means in each dimension, models and meanings of faith and learning integration in that dimension, and the expectations of provosts, deans, and tenure-promotion committees in that dimension.
Finally the book presents a framework for assessing faith/learning integration in the three dimensions of teaching, research, and service and provides step-by-step instructions for reporting and describing the individual faculty member’s approach.

Light Within Me
$27.99Add to cartThe celebrated Fox News star and #1 New York Times bestselling author offers a powerful, uplifting look at her life and her spiritual journey, reflecting on her family, her faith, and her successful career.
In her bestselling children’s book Take Heart, My Child, Ainsley Earhardt drew on her childhood and the inspirational notes her father wrote her before school each morning. In this moving memoir, she reminisces about growing up with a father who loved his children unconditionally–a cherished model of parenthood she has adopted with her own daughter–how her Christian faith has shaped her life, and the dynamic journalism career that has made her a trusted household name.
From her insightful political coverage, including a sit-down with Melania Trump, to her powerful reporting covering some of the most headline-making national events, to her live coverage, including Pope Francis’ visit to New York, Ainsley considers her career and the factors that have propelled her to the top of her field, becoming a cohost of Fox & Friends and contributor to Hannity. Ainsley credits her success to the values she learned from her parents, and to the enduring Christian faith that has been her ballast through thick and thin, in good times and in periods of great difficulty.
Filled with inspirational quotes taken from Scripture and illustrated with sixteen pages of never-before-seen photos, her memoir is infused with her spiritual beliefs and will touch the hearts of all her fans, reminding them to count the blessings God has given them every day of their lives.
