Book Description
It is now [1990] one hundred and thirty years since the birth of the Mennonite Brethren Church and therefore time for someone in that church to take a backward glance to see how things have developed. Who better to do this John B. Toews. His life spans well over half of those years and he has experienced much of what he writes. "JB" as he is affectionately known by both students and colleagues is a patriarchal figure in the Mennonite Brethren Church. Born in Ukraine, the Russian Revolution and its aftermath were the crucible that shaped his youth and young adult years. After studying in Western Europe, Toews immigrated to Canada in the late 1920s. Much of his life has been in Mennonite Brethren educational institutions in Canada and the United States. During ten years as Executive Secretary of the Mennonite Brethren Board of Missions he traveled widely and came to know Mennonite Brethren people around the world. In between educational and mission administrative responsibilities he pastored in Kansas and California. After retiring from the presidency of the Mennonite Brethren Biblical Seminary he became the founding Director of the Historical Commission of the Mennonite Brethren Church.

Christian Education and the Local Church
Author: James DeForest MurchPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Church and education
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
This book helps the local church re-evaluate its program of Christian education. After nearly 2000 years of history it is pertinent to ask whether the church school is still true to the principles of the Master Teacher and of the apostolic church; whether its methods of education and their ultimate results are distinctly and peculiarly Christian, and whether the local church is efficiently reaching humanity with Christian teaching. The author faces these questions from the viewpoint of one who believes that the Bible is inspired, that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and that the New Testament church is the pattern church. He evaluates modern educational thought and practice in the searching light of Christian history and principles, and draws some constructive conclusions. The section on methods present a church school for today which offers all the best of modern education in a pattern thoroughly true to the Scriptures..
