How do we educate for human wholeness? How do we intentionally shape the culture of our institutions? What are some of our most serious temptations?

Many now agree that, at best, ECLA colleges and universities principally educate students so they can discern the material, social, and spiritual needs of others and then respond with committed service and out of a sense of gratitude. In short, the vocation of Lutheran higher education is to educate for vocation. This book traces the history of Lutheran higher education, depicts its chief marks, offers critical perspectives on its aim to educate for vocation, and traces trajectories into the decades to come.

This narrative is a chronological history of the first Lutheran institution of higher learning in the state of North Carolina. Although several individual North Carolina Lutheran congregations established their own private academies during the Church's first 110 years in the state, it was not until 1855 that the North Carolina Lutheran Synod opened its first "high school of a collegiate character".

Lutheran colleges and universities occupy a distinctive space in American higher education. In an age where the dividing line between sacred and secular has become blurred, Brian Beckstrom argues that their "rooted and open" approach, combined with adaptive theological leadership, could be the best hope for faith based higher education. To do so, he provides an overview of Lutheran higher education, its history, and identity, and combines surveys of students, faculty, and staff at Lutheran institutions with leadership theory and theological reflection. Leaders at Lutheran colleges and universities will find it to be helpful in understanding their mission, identity, and vocation in a secular age, and navigating the changing cultural environment that challenges the church and higher education alike.

Why should Lutherans care whether there are any ''Lutheran'' colleges and universities? Why should people who study, teach, and work in colleges and universities care whether they are ''Lutheran'' or not? And, maybe most significantly, what does the continued robustness of Lutheran higher education have to contribute to the church and to life and work in the broader public arena? Tom Christenson has thoughtful and persuasive answers to all these questions, and more.
