In recent\u003cbr\u003e years, neuroscience's various fields of study have influenced our understanding of the\u003cbr\u003e person, memory, learning, development, communal interaction, and the practice of\u003cbr\u003e education.\u003cbr\u003e The book serves as an introductory textbook for Christian education\/formation\u003cbr\u003e professors to use in Christian education or Christian formation courses at the College or\u003cbr\u003e Seminary level. The book is designed to provide an overview of how current research in neuroscience is\u003cbr\u003e impacting how we view Christian education and formation with particular attention given to faith formation, \u003cbr\u003e teaching, development, and worship The first four chapters discuss how neuroscience broadly influences\u003cbr\u003e Christian education and formation. Chapters five through eight explore how neuroscience informs specific\u003cbr\u003e formational practices, from personal meditation, to intercultural encounter, to congregational formation and\u003cbr\u003e worship.
