Wheaton follow-up
Some time ago we had a little conversation about the relationship between a Bible school’s religious and political interests. This is actually the second time returning to the question, though I personally have nothing new to add. I just thought you might like to read what Alan Jacobs has to say about it. Perhaps once I have a little more time on my hands, I’ll try to add some kind of commentary. For now, I’ll just recommend reading the article.
In case you need to know what side of the fence Jacobs lands on before continuing, here is his concluding paragraph:
The Reformation may not be over, but many of the suspicions and hostilities that accompanied it should be. Wheaton could strike a great blow, not for insipid and vacuous “moral and religious influences,” but for true Christian unity, if it welcomed into its midst Josh Hochschild and other Catholic teacher-scholars who share his passion for Christian truth.
