One of the common issues that papers in this journal tussle with is how educational institutions founded by people of faith are sustained over time with their foundations intact. It is good to have a paper in this edition of the journal that addresses this core concern, as well as coverage of other topics addressing educational issues from a Christian faith perspective. The first mentioned paper discusses how a school founded in Indonesia by missionaries is now sought by many purely due to the quality of education. The authors consider the role Christian schools might play to mitigate ethno-religious violence. They issue the challenge that ‘Christian education and mission cannot be separated (Matthew 28:16–20). Despite adversity and opposition, Christian schools must be faithful to their mission of proclaiming the Gospel’. One of the great challenges for faith-based schools is how to sustain the original founders’ vision for an education centred on Christian belief, with pedagogy that reflects the faith. While faith originally underpinned all religious schools, sustaining such a focus can be difficult. If our measure of success in schooling was as simple as maintaining academic, cultural and sporting standards, sustaining enrolments and keeping our parents onside, then maintaining a good Christian school would be less challenging. But our Christian institutions were always meant to offer so much more. The challenge for many institutions is that after successfully founding and growing Christian schools and universities; progressively and often subtly, the pursuit of excellence in academic studies begins to dominate. Of course, faith-based schools should assume that some parents will send their children to us with a primary concern for the facilities, quality of teaching and results that students obtain. If we accept this premise, we should expect the delivery of Christian education to be harder. Consequently, this requires us to ensure a priority is given to the faith on which the school was founded. Sadly, this aim can be lost over time and this has been seen most clearly within universities that were typically founded by religious orders and churches. Sadly, most of these once Christian institutions are now largely secular in focus, with Christian teaching and practices located in individual colleges, or affiliated institutions and organizations on or near each campus.

This research aimed to analyze the differences between two models of pedagogy. The research method used is content analysis. Results showed a significant difference between neoliberal pedagogy and the pedagogy of shalom. The aspects of difference were the purpose of Christian religious education (CRE), the content of CRE, the target of CRE, the method of CRE, the role of CRE teachers, and students’ dispositions and competencies.

The 15 chapters of this edited volume originated as presentations at an internationally recognized conference hosted by The Jubilee Centre for Character and Virtues. In Virtues and Virtue Education in Theory and Practice , we fi nd an interdisciplinary, insightful discussion about the locality or universality of virtues. The editors divide the contri-butions of the 20 researchers into three sections (philosophical, psychological and practical or educational issues), each with a brief introduction. The book includes recent approaches regarding the locality or universality of the virtues, which is one of its strengths. In addition to the authors of the third section, who adopt a ‘ middle-ground position ’ (p. 149), according to the editors, we fi nd other authors with a clear non-dichotomous perspective in the volume. Elise Murray and Jonathan Tirrell adopt a developmental sciences framework in which ‘ human development exists in person/context relations among the multiple, fused levels of an individual ’ s context over time ’ (p. 120) to arrive at an integrated construal that speci fi es local and universal aspects of virtues. Ron Beadle and Angus Robson, who discuss the case of a travelling circus, claim that such moral community ‘ provides empirical support for the thesis that virtues are neither particular nor universal but always both ’ (p. 224). The proper treatment of relevant contemporary problems exempli fi es another strong point of the book. The authors of the seventh chapter, for instance, draw on previous empirical studies to investigate whether ‘ the experience that one is moral ’ carries out the same function as basic psychological needs in self-determination theory. Although such studies have a ‘ subjective ’ (p. t from the elucidation of current ideas and practical insights into virtues and character education found in this collection.
