EXCERPT
In many respects, the present quantity . . . touch[es] upon 3 concerns: highbrow engagement, culture, and ecumenism. the fundamental suggestion in the back of the undertaking was once to convey [together] a number one American evangelical student and a number one American Catholic pupil, either conversant in their very own culture, with one another's culture, and with the overall panorama of "Christian learning," understood to intend what is going on at real associations of upper schooling, in addition to the wider international of educational scholarship. as soon as this aim was once formulated, names quick leaped to brain: Mark Noll and James Turner--scholars whom i've got lengthy suspected may be American reincarnations of the (irenic, erudite) Protestant reformer Philipp Melanchthon and the (irenic, erudite) Catholic humanist Desiderius Erasmus. . . .

As readers will detect, these [at the convention] have been rewarded with a heady mixture of well-deserved erudition, theological dedication, and gracious eloquence--all serious about what i'm persuaded are one of the extra fascinating and consequential advancements in contemporary a long time: issues of (promising) touch and (lingering) clash among evangelical and Catholic methods to better schooling and scholarship.

Die Zeit, in der wir leben, ist eine Zeit allgegenwärtiger Transformationen. Nur weniges scheint noch auf Beständigkeit angelegt zu sein.
