The Christian has been called upon as never before to speak out in his community, not only to propagate the gospel but also to defend his biblical values against an increasingly antagonistic secular society. Leadership is impossible without excellent communications.

The philosophy statements in this series are concise statements of the biblical basis for Christian education generally and for individual disciplines specifically. The series includes the foundational statements The Christian Philosophy of Education, Christian Teaching and Learning, Christian Educational Methods and the specialized statements on the Christian teaching of art, Bible, business, English, history, home economics, math, music, physical education, science, and speech. The statements are also conveniently gathered into one volume, Christian Education: Its Mandate and Mission.
