God's truth is holistic impacting all aspects of his creation. So also is his will and agenda for his world. Therefore his ministers in the world should be trained holistically through an integrated program in a wholesome community. That is the challenge that is posed before us in this masterful work by one of India's most innovative theological teachers. Saphir Athyal, PhD Former Principal/President, Union Biblical Seminary, Pune, Maharashtra, India Jaison's call to ""wholeness"" is a frank acknowledgment that much of what happens today in ministerial formation is fragmented and lacking many of the key features necessary for vitality and health. This book patiently surveys the entire landscape of higher education and, in the process, gives us a much needed call for spiritual awakening and for a dramatic reassessment of what has heretofore been called theological education. Timothy C. Tennent, PhD President, Asbury Theological Seminary, Wilmore, Kentucky, USA This will ensure that our efforts in this important vocation are continuously recalibrated according to the most important commitments that should drive our endeavors - for these matters Dr Jessy Jaison leaves no stone unturned and will repeatedly probe our work and prod us to educational excellence in light of our higher calling! Amos Yong, PhD Director of Center for Missiological Research, Fuller Theological Seminary, Pasadena, California, USA
