Recently, while reading the seminary's quarterly (read: fundraising) magazine, Learner appreciated the transcription of the seminary president's report from the denominational convention in June.
Called to give his annual address, the seminary president stated that if the evaluation came down to a growing enrollment, a balanced budget, and a good reputation, his report would be short and encouraging. But he went on to pose a different question for evaluation: Is what the seminary is doing making a difference?
Learner said he liked the question...and wondered about the answer.
