The West's educational crisis may be unresolved, but there are signs of renewal in Catholic education. In this effort, the Habiger Institute for Catholic Leadership's 2020 volume The Heart of Culture has given its readers hope that the Catholic educational tradition is both resilient and true.

Gwen Adams' Handbook to The Heart of Culture fortifies this hope with stories of renewal, spiritual reflections, and practical applications. In each of the three Handbook volumes, Adams examines an aspect of Catholic educational history with particular attention to the education of children and adolescents; offers an insightful reflection on a virtue critical to education; and supplies abundant resources in pedagogy and materials. Perfectly balancing the weight of the tradition across the three volumes, Adams offers to new and experienced teachers alike insights and skills for educating in truth.

Volume III traces Catholic educational history from the Enlightenment to present-day renewal movements. Following a reflection on integrity, the Workbook gives guidance for cultivating that virtue, with practical plans and suggestions for leading seminars on literature, studying art and architecture, and improving feedback and grading practices. Volume III concludes with advice from leaders in the revival of Catholic education.
