John Piper recently unpacked several biblical foundations for Bethlehem College and Seminary. As a University professor I greatly appreciate (and resonate with!) this one sentence Piper wrote thirty years ago when he was on the Bethel College faculty:
We aim to enable and to motivate the student to observe his subject matter accurately and thoroughly, to understand clearly what he has observed, to evaluate fairly what he has come to understand, to appropriate wisely in life what he has found valuable, and to express in speech and writing what he has seen, understood, evaluated, and appropriated in such a way that its accuracy, clarity, fairness, and value can be known and enjoyed by others.
Read the whole thing.
