Erwin!

"It was easier to be certain you were right when you had never even heard of an opposing position. It was easier to be sure you were right when you felt you were in the majority position. It was easier to believe everyone else was wrong when you didn't know him or her personally." -Erwin Mcmanus, An Unstoppable Force

To state it in the negative perspective: Homeschool so you don't have to listen to the opposing position. Go to Christian college so you can be in the majority position. Socialize at church so you don't personally know anyone other than christians.

We think that is good.

That's what my life has been. For this reason I don't think I can go straight into an M. Div program or directly into ministry. Evangelism is geared toward christians...Ministry is geared toward christians. We can't let that be the case.
