Who is Testing Whom?
from The Bible as Literature · host The Ephesus School
It is common for students to judge their teachers. Worse, students today are encouraged to do so, being routinely asked to fill out teacher evaluation forms. Some have even created websites to aggregate student gossip about their teachers. In a culture that lauds greed and shames mothers, it seems that everyone has an opinion about the one who stands before them bearing gifts. Not so and not on Paul's watch, who reminds the church, it is not you who evaluates me, but I who evaluate you, "So that I might put you to the test, whether you are obedient in all things." Richard and Fr. Marc discuss 2 Corinthians 2.
