Against the Tide

Reclaiming authentic Christian education

The Christian school movement faces threats from within, such as apathy and the lowering of standards to attract more students. The authors of this book call Christian school administrators and pastors of churches with schools to return to their founding principles and a Christ-centered philosophy of education. The book gives practical guidance for developing and living by mission statements and goals, for working with staff, faculty, parents and students, and programs.
