Secondary Calling Challenges
Posted by tom | May 22, 2007Scott McKnight recently posted on the Problems of Professorhood:
1. Committee work
2. Politics
3. Income
4. Grading
5. Perfunctory students in perfunctory classes
Pray for IVCF's upcoming Faculty Conference: In Thy Light We See Light Theological Acuity and Academic Vocation to provide rest and rejuvination for faculty. Pray for participants to leave following the model of Jesus as teacher, see The Academy and Jesus, and servant, see Helping Students Love God by Washing Their Feet. Pray for the Kingdom to come to campus through followers of Christ called to offer their gifts in academic vocation.
Note: really looking forward to seeing Susan Norman, now w/IVCF-Canada's Graduate and Faculty Ministry, and several faculty from Pittsburgh at the faculty conference. See Integrating Faith and Vocation for a report from last year.
