Synopsis

Faith-based institutions yearn for more than business as usual, and Echoes of Insight, invites you to listen again to the older, forgotten, and perhaps even ignored voices. Echoes of Insight offers brief summaries of several thought-provoking writers from the last century and encourages a new, vigorous conversation about Christian higher education. Some of those authors include: Alfred North Whitehead, Dorothy Sayers, Flannery O'Conner, John Henry Newman, Abraham Flexner, Hannah Arendt, Karl Jaspers, and Maria Montessori.
