- Abstract
- Mills. Such traditional approaches to students in Christian schools as classroom Bible teaching and chapel services are not functioning effectively in modern Japan. From his own experience, the author proposes a new approach of volunteer work programs formed by small groups. When they are thrown into an entirely new life situation students ask existential questions. The way is then open for teachers to explain meanings of the Christian message. The theories of Erikson, Fowler and others provide the basis for discussions. The role of the teacher is crucial in this approach. Three biblical metaphors -- shepherd, wounded healer, and wise folly -- are used to examine the role.
