"""Call it a crisis or not, theological education is in a time of major transition. Across the globe, consensus has arisen that things need to change; theological education needs new forms, new practices, new visions. But inside this consensus there has been despair, with no easy or straightforward pathway. It is amidst all the possibilities and perils that Glocal Theological Education arrives. This book will be an important resource in helping us all move forward faithfully."" --Andrew Root, professor of youth and family ministry, Luther Seminary ""Such a volume on theological education is timely. Nelson Mandela once said that there are three solutions for South Africa: education, education, education. Any crisis compels us to rethink and reimagine teaching and training. The book not only encourages us to do so but informs us in many ways on the why, what, and how!"" --Malan Nel, professor of practical theology and mission studies, University of Pretoria"
