I am also baffled by the fact that Sabbath is not observed....it is a commandment. We know the history of the Catholic church......and still people do not honor Sabbath. I see the love for our Father....and the desire to be followers of His Word.....I think these things should be a point of interest if we are to truly honor Him.

Are you sure? What part of culture really changed? What about Eve eating the apple and giving some to Adam? That made a pretty huge impact. Gunpowder and the atomic bomb have had a big impact on the world but culture didn't really change much there either. I don't think culture really cares, sure Christianity has been the State religion in Rome and some other countries from time to time but so has Islam. BTW - I like the “How is your project of personal transformation going?” I don't think I'd ever ask anybody that question but it's good.

I loved the writing about humility and dependence on God--The Only World Changer. If we develop students into leaders who are humbly dependent and available to God to act boldly under Christ's leadership in the power of the Holy Spirit it is then that we have attained our vision.

I love it. Reminds me of a pastor friend who was running out of his house to counsel a couple when his wife stopped him and said, "What do you have to offer?" These interviews have been great, Trevin. Thanks so much for sharing. I look forward to the conclusion. “How is your project of personal transformation going?” I love it.
