Praise for Grand Designs by Dr Darren Iselin and Dr Daniel Pampuch

‘Grand Designs is essential reading for leaders and board members in Christian education. Iselin and Pampuch’s metaphor of building cathedrals offers practical advice and all-important reminders that must be reflected on within Christian schools. This is a must-read for all who are seeking tangible ways to keep the main thing the main thing, generation after generation.’
Shaun Brooker, Chairperson, New Zealand Association for Christian Schools

‘This book invites readers to pause and consider the faithful essentials that sustain Christian schools. Centred on four enduring pillars: Alignment, Belonging, Excellence, and Imagination, it offers a compelling vision for strengthening the foundations that make
lasting transformation possible. By faithfully shoring up these foundational pillars, schools bring hope for the future.’
Jennifer Thompson, Chief Executive Officer, Christian Schools International (USA)

‘In this thoughtful and practical book, Iselin and Pampuch serve as wise guides for any school leader seeking to heed the call of Christian education. The authors provide a blueprint that will help leaders faithfully renew their schools’ missions, not just for the sake
of this generation of students and educators, but for all those who will follow.’
Dr Lynn Swaner, President, Cardus US

‘This beautifully crafted book will be of deep value to school leaders and boards who are committed to Christian education that enables the flourishing of children and adults. It is a compelling call for pioneers and creators to architecture before activity, and a call back
to already established schools to return and re-ignite their core purpose for the next generation of their journey.’
Andy Wolfe, Chief Education Officer, Church of England
