미국 칼빈신학대학원 총장 코넬리우스 플랜틴가의 역작으로 기독교 지성인들을 위한 구체적인 삶의 지표를 설정한다. 기독교인이 품어야하는 현실 인식과 미래에 대한 소망에 대해 설명하고, 어거스틴과 칼빈, 카이퍼의 신학 전통에 따라 기독교 세계관을 강조해온 사람들이 즐겨 사용하는 창조, 타락, 구속의 구조로 이뤄져 있다. The Bible admonishes Christians to love God with the mind as well as with the heart. Engaging God's World clearly links this scriptural mandate with the pursuit of academic life, extolling the crucial role of Christian higher education in the intellectual and spiritual formation of believers.Chiefly intended to serve as a primer for students beginning college careers but valuable to thoughtful Christians at every stage of life, this volume spells out the central themes of the Christian faith from a Reformed perspective. More important, however, the book shows how Christian higher education fits inside a view of the world and of human life that is formed by these ideas."Learning, " Cornelius Plantinga writes, "is a spiritual calling; properly done, it attaches us to God." Approaching the topic of education from a variety of angles, Plantinga shows that Christ-centered learning teaches people to correctly see the world as God's creation, to see providence in history, to handle secular knowledge critically, to develop good judgment and, ultimately, to use faith-filled learning in the service of God's kingdom.
