Description
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.

Patrick Allen is known for writing with humor and spiritual sensitivity about how people grow in grace as they follow Jesus. He cares about how Christian faith can be shaped and formed by intentional spiritual practices and in-depth study--particularly when used for discipleship and spiritual growth in Bible studies, small groups, and personal devotions. He is author of seven books, the latest being Practicing the Prayer of St. Francis (Wipf & Stock, 2022).
