Conversation with educator Denise Pope

from Failing Boldly Hosted by Christian Coon

My guest this week is Denise Pope. Denise is a Senior Lecturer at the Stanford University Graduate School of Education and the author of “Doing School”: How We Are Creating a Generation of Stressed Out, Materialistic, and Miseducated Students. She’s also the co-founder of Challenge Success, an organization that partners with schools, families, and communities to embrace a broad definition of success and to implement research-based strategies that promote student well-being and engagement with learning. With many conversations happening about how schools will be educating their students this fall, Denise offers some fresh perspectives on how we should be preparing our children for their futures. To find out more about Denise and Challenge Success, you can go to their web site or on Facebook, YouTube, or Twitter.

Community Bible Fellowship Church CBFC Red Hill, PA Biblical Teaching and Instruction straight from God's Word. Seeking to proclaim Truth rightly and boldly. C.S. Lewis's The Last Battle St. Philip's Church: Charleston, SC Come join us on Wednesday nights as we explore the riches of C.S. Lewis’s marvelous book The Last Battle, which is the last of The Chronicles of Narnia. It is a remarkable book on multiple levels and was awarded the Carnegie Medal back in the 1950s when it was first published. The Last Battle has some themes in common with The Great Divorce and That Hideous Strength that will make it an excellent follow-up to those two books, and like them, it has some remarkable resonance with things going on in today’s culture. It is a book that is both theologically rich and poignantly beautiful in its writing, and it can help equip us to live boldly for Christ in a culture that has lost its way. (Although this book is the last of The Chronicles of Narnia, it can stand on its own and it is not necessary to have read the other books for this class.) That Hideous Strength: C.S. Lewis on Living Wisely St. Philip's Church: Charleston, SC In the foreword to his novel "That Hideous Strength," Lewis says it is a fictionalized story that seeks to illustrate the main points he makes in "The Abolition of Man." Join us as we unpack the important themes in this eerily prescient book and reflect on what it means for us today in terms of living boldly for Christ in an increasingly secular age.
