Yesterday's lunch: BBQ pork from Slopes, corn on the cob floating in butter, green beans cooked until nearly mashed, baked beans. Another manly meal.
Yesterday's class was excellent. It was taught by Dr. Jeff Myers of Summit Ministries at Bryan College. Last year we has John Stonestreet (of the same group) in to talk to the students. These guys are excellent. Articulate, intelligent, engaging, and wise in preparing students for the intellectual challenges of today's culture and the hostility of the college classroom to Christianity (or any claims to absolute truth). My only complaint about these guys is their constant reliance on statistics supplied by one researcher, George Barna. Not to knock Barna, for all I know he does fine work, but basing an argument on one statistical source is not the most intellectually honest process. All of these guys, as well as the leadership at ACSI, are doing an incredible job of defining the need for a biblical worldview and explaining how that can be accomplished in our students.
Today, we have three meetings for a total of five and quarter hours of meetings. Lunch will be provided. I will let you know how it goes. Lunch, that is.
