Our world is growing increasingly complex and confused—a unique and urgent context that calls for a grounded and fresh approach to Christian higher education. Christian higher education involves a distinctive way of thinking about teaching, learning, scholarship, curriculum, student life, administration, and governance that is rooted in the historic Christian faith. In this volume, twenty-nine experts from a variety of fields, including theology, the humanities, science, mathematics, social science, philosophy, the arts, and professional programs, explore how the foundational beliefs of Christianity influence higher education and its disciplines. Aimed at equipping the next generation to better engage the shifting cultural context, this book calls students, professors, trustees, administrators, and church leaders to a renewed commitment to the distinctive work of Christian higher education—for the good of the society, the good of the church, and the glory of God.

On the one hand, this book will introduce us, who are living in the last-days (of the world), to important personalities whose existence and qualities we need to be aware of, as well as to important books that will be our guides to the truth; on the other hand, it will be a companion and very powerful means of service for us, that will hold our hand and take us to an unprecedented spiritual world, which is called "Risale-i Nur Classroom (Dersane)" and which lets us taste the moral pleasures of Heaven in this world.

This book, with its rich and original content, will show you, in an imaginary fashion, an utterly different world. You will read the astonishing and extraordinary story of a genius who is admired with his life, in the light of information that is brought together from different sources and can’t be found everywhere. You will make acquaintance to the magnificent activities of a spiritual school that has never physically come to existence, Spiritual Medresetüzzehra", which has the capacity of making serious contribution to the mental transformation that we need as a society. You will witness how Risale-i Nur has taken the people from every walk of society under its irresistible astonishing influence with an unprecedented educational campaign despite unfavourable conditions and you will learn how it has taken its place in the arena of science and knowledge as an unprecedented social reality a guide of truth and as a book which rebuilds (the characteristics of) its readers, having them read itself for a lifetime, and you will be trilled and lost in amazement. Furthermore, in this extended version, you will find a very rich content where Bediüzzaman's ideas on politics and government actions and his opinions on M. Kemal are discussed with a very different approach and an intellectual point of view.
