EPISODE · Oct 2, 2014 · 25 MIN
Richard Goes to OCF
from The Bible as Literature · host The Ephesus School
What is the purpose of campus ministry? What do we hope for our youth? What do we expect of them as they enter adulthood? In a contemporary setting, where campus ministry tends to emphasize social issues, religious identity, and topical theology, how can teachers engage college students with the serious study of the Bible? In this week's episode, Richard talks about a recent experience he had working through Hosea 6 on campus at the University of Minnesota. You will not be surprised to hear that in just 15 minutes, Richard had his students reading the Bible, taking notes and doing exegesis. His method is not complicated, but unlike popular approaches to campus ministry, it does require effort. (Episode 37) ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
