He contends that this moment is not a threat but an opportunity, and that Christian educators are especially well positioned to respond with attention, patience, and grace. Blending cultural analysis, theological reflection, and compelling storytelling, Burrows commends a vision of teaching that is both demanding and hospitable, where our hunger for truth and meaning is nourished by the God who has made himself known in Jesus Christ.” \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;\"\u003eJustin Ariel Bailey\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;\"\u003e, Dean of Chapel and Professor of Theology, Dordt University; Author of Interpreting Your World and Discipling the Diseased Imagination\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;\"\u003e“This is a timely and perceptive book that offers a rare gift to Christian educators —a biblically and theologically grounded analysis of our cultural moment that neither romanticises the past nor fears the present, but instead gives educators real insight into the tensions that our students inhabit. Sam Burrows offers a compelling and deeply personal account that is equally alert to philosophy and popular culture, but never strays from its confidence in how the Gospel speaks into these tensions, and the hope that Christian teachers can offer. I recommend it to any Christian educator seeking to sharpen their sense of calling, and better understand their students and the rapidly changing cultural landscape they inhabit.” \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;\"\u003eRoshan Allpress\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;\"\u003e, National Principal and CEO, Laidlaw College, New Zealand\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;\"\u003e“The Christian Teacher in a Metamodern Moment \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;\"\u003epaints a picture of our day, allowing us to more deeply understand our students and our communities, enabling us to tailor our pedagogy to the moment and to meet our students more directly where they are.
