Journal #4 - Education and the Church (Christian Formation)

Written Journals due March 26 @ Colloquium
Verbal Journals due March 23-April 3

More students in college and graduate studies suffer from depression and burn-out before they even enter the work force. Education involves being exposed to a diversity of beliefs and ideas. Education is transformative, as it often disrupts and causes a student to reshape his/her worldview.

  • Reflect on your education in the Christian Leadership Center and in your classes at Centenary. How have you been exposed to a diversity of beliefs and ideas? Has your experience been transformative?
  • In what ways is your education at Centenary different from your education in the church?
  • What are aspects of each (college and church) that might be beneficial for the other? What would this look like?
  • What would you say is the biggest challenge for Christian Formation today?
