Apologetics powerhouse Ken Ham teams with Dr. Greg Hall for an eye-opening assessment of 200 Christian colleges and universities from across America. During the unprecedented 2010 study by Britt Beemer's America's Research Group (ARG), these colleges were polled on core faith questions . and the results are revealing and shocking! Examine the beginnings of the Ivy League schools and their now forgotten purpose at their formation. Observe the views, responses, and answers to basic questions from these Christian colleges that will surprise and alarm you. ARG interviewed university presidents, academic deans/vice presidents, as well as the heads of the science and theology/religion departments. Discover how these institutions address the cultural battlefields of science, Christianity, and the accuracy of the Bible, including views of inspiration, inerrancy, and infallibility. Get tips for choosing colleges and questions you must ask to ensure your children will be instructed to stand boldly on God's Word. Will your college of choice pass the critical test by building your child's faith instead of destroying it?" -- from the rear outer cover. "Critical Questions. Christian parents spend hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to send their children to a Christian university, Bible college, or seminary. They entrust their child to the professors and administrators they believe will protect their children and nurture them in their young adult faith. The students enter eagerly, committed and excited to begin their training - often hoping to one day be involved in missionary work, becoming a pastor, or in some way use their educational training to be a more effective witness for Christ. Both parents and students enter the whole experience with high expectations. What they don't know is that, like the secular schools they wish to avoid, and like the majority of the great Christian institutions of higher learning of the past, some of the Christian schools they attend are . Already Compromised. Troubling Signs. So how big is the problem at Christian colleges and universities? A study done in 2010 by America's Research Group (ARG), the nationally-recognized firm which did the survey for the book Already Gone: Why Your Kids Will Quit Church and What You Can Do to Stop It reveals its is greater than imagined. There is a battle going on for the mind of students on every Christian and secular college today. The outcome will have a profound impact on the future. Many young people in our churches are already doubting and disbelieving God's Word. And the results? At least two-thirds of children raised in theologically conservative churches now walk away from the church (or even the Christian faith altogether). As key leaders of over 200 colleges were asked a series of foundational questions on Scripture and core faith tenets, their responses at times were troubling, and even shocking. It's a current snapshot at what is actually being taught in these institutions. Now Christian parents have a tool to help them navigate the often troubling waters of differing worldviews." -- from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Signed by Author(s).
