Clitoria Ternatea BlueAlso known as: Butterfly Pea, Asian Pigeonwings
Here is a perennial, herbaceous vine, native to tropical Asia and Africa. It belongs to the pea or legume family (Fabaceae) and is a medicinal herb treasure chest. Royal blue flowers occur on a tender vine and are Clitoris-like in shape, hence name of the plant. It can grow fast up to 15 feet, with fine pinnate foliage. It is an easy plant to care for, not invasive, controllable, and not messy. An excellent choice for hanging baskets. It prefers partial shade and quite tolerant of drought. Said to bloom within 1-2 months from seed.
Blooms year-round in warmer regions. Hardy to 30 degrees F. For all practical purposes, protect from frost. May be grown as an annual in the temperate north.
Flowers contain the powerful natural antioxidant blue proanthocyanidin and not only are they eaten as a vegetable, but they are used for food coloring and making blue herbal tea as a wellness drink. It is a high-quality, protein-rich legume, a "tropical alfalfa" often referred to as a protein bank that can be grown at low cost. Livestock tend to prefer it over other legumes and grasses and it is therefore much valued as a pasture legume. It is also used for cut-and-carry feeding systems and cut for hay and silage. It's nitrogen-fixing and is used as a ley legume or as green manure. It is a valuable cover crop in rubber and coconut plantations.
All parts of this vine, meaning roots, seeds, flowers and leaves have been used over centuries, with excellent results, in traditional Indian medicine as a memory enhancer, nootropic, antistress, anxiolytic, antidepressant, anticonvulsant, tranquilizing and sedative agent (local anesthetics). It contains peptides called cliotides that have potent anti-microbial properties against Escherichia coli. Its extracts possess a wide range of pharmacological activities including antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, diuretic, antidiabetic, insecticidal, blood platelet aggregation-inhibiting and for its vascular smooth muscle relaxing properties.

Not much about higher education
Format: Paperback
I gave this book 3 stars not because I think it was bad, but because it didn't really have much to do with higher education. I am a big believer in Christian higher education and the integration of faith and learning, however, if you were to take this book and replace "Christian higher education" with a phrase like "the Christian community" or the "Church family" no one would notice the difference.
I do believe in much of what he said but that's because I follow Christ. I didn't expect him to spend chapters on what Christians believe and how they differ from other religions, I was hoping for an intelligent argument and exploration of Christian higher education and how it differs from other higher education. And the argument, higher education used to be all Christian higher education is not a good argument.
Once again, not a bad book but just not what I expected based on the description and title.

A Sterling Vision of Christian Education
David Dockery is the president of my alma mater, Union University in Jackson, Tennessee. Therefore, I have always taken great interest in keeping up with what Dockery says and does in the realm of Christian higher education. B&H publishing has done us all a favor by pulling together his ideas into a unified book with the theme - "Serving Church and Society through Christian Higher Education".
Dockery's heart beats with the passion of a pastor, theologian, academic, and administrator. He sees the Christian university as a place in society where both mind and heart can renewed along biblical and gospel lines. It is difficult work in our day, but it is a necessary work.
Dockery writes, "I believe that the integration of faith and learning is the essence of authentic Christian higher education and should be wholeheartedly implemented across the campus and across the curriculum."
And how is this accomplished? Dockery says, "We need more than just new ideas and enhanced programs, we need distinctively Christian thinking, the king of touch-minded thinking that results in culture-engaging living. ...This perspective involves the whole of our human personality. Our minds are to be renewed, our emotions purified, our conscience kept clear, and our will surrendered to God's will. Applying the Great Commandment entails all that we know of ourselves being committed to all that we know of God."
A number of the chapters in this book simply sparkled with insight. Pastors will especially note the overlap of Dockery's vision of Christian community in the university with what we also hope to find within the local church. For example, Dockery writes a chapter on "Establishing a Grace-Filled Academic Community" that could and should be applied to the local church as well, with an emphasis on unity, shared life, worship, and service. Within chapter six is a section titled, "Building Blocks for Building a Community with Renewed Message", a message with such urgency and clarity that I did in fact bring it home to our church for a renewed sense of Christian community.
Such is the case for much of this excellent book. You may not have a vocational calling to higher education. However, as a pastor or Christian parent, it is your responsibility to consider carefully the type of institution you send your students to for university education.
Dockery writes, "I would suggest that the starting point of loving God with our minds, thinking Christianly, points us to a unity of knowledge, a seamless whole, because all true knowledge flows from the one Creator to His one creation." Dockery's vision is compelling and sound, and I heartily recommend this book.
