Expressing Life – Church Leaders and Members

August 22, 2023

Acclaimed pastor, professor, and chaplain, Kevin Mannoia, has released a new book, “Expressing Life,” aiming to redefine the way scholars and students approach Christian education. The book serves as a primer for integrating faith with academic study, fostering a deeper understanding of God through the pursuit of truth.

In “Expressing Life,” Mannoia leverages his comprehensive experience from various leadership roles, to emphasize the inseparable mission of the Church and academia. He challenges the long-standing divide between these entities, advocating for unity in faith and learning.

The book highlights that all truth originates from God and therefore, every academic pursuit is a spiritual journey. It posits that Christian education isn’t a deviation from spirituality but a means to discover more about God.

For scholars and students in Christian higher education, “Expressing Life” offers a fresh perspective, emphasizing the vital role they play in the spiritual journey through their academic pursuits. Mannoia’s message is a timely contribution to Christian education, advocating for a seamless integration of faith and learning.

“Expressing Life” is now available on Amazon: https://a.co/d/1Tavu73
