Notables’ Quotables
Posted by Andrew Wencl in Bible & Theology, IMPACT Features
Sunday is a great day to relax. To help you rewind, I encourage you to sit back and think about this quote from John Piper’s recent book, Think: the Love of God and the Life of the Mind, where he comments on his formal religious education (seminary).
“I am not among the number who looks back with dismay on what I was, or wasn’t, taught. If I had to do it over again, I would take almost all the same classes with the same teachers and teach almost all the same classes. I didn’t expect college and seminary and graduate school to teach me things that have to be learned on the job. If I have stumbled, it wasn’t their fault.”
—John Piper, Think: the Love of God and the Life of the Mind, p. 26.
Share your thoughts. Are you of the same mind? Do you think differently? Are you among the number who looks back with dismay on what you were or weren’t taught in seminary? Why?
