Why I teach at AU
Though my calling is teaching at a Christian college, my passion is the local church. I truly believe that these two are and should be integrated, for it is through the training of God-called ministers at institutions like Anderson University that the church may be edified and our Lord glorified. My prayer is that the students who train for Christian ministry at AU will have this same passion for the Bride of Christ.
My goal in teaching is three-fold: To engender within the students a love and passion for God’s inspired, inerrant Word—all of it, including the Old Testament. To enter into and invest in the lives of the students, for through them our future generations and the church itself can be influenced for Christ. And to encourage the students in not only intellectual achievement, but also in Christian discipleship, discipline, and humility, so that the entire person is trained.
