Why Christians Should Ask Better Questions

Jeff Sherrod and Laurie Kagay host Dave Medders, Executive Vice President for The Association for Biblical Higher Education, discusses the role of Christian higher ed in shaping future leaders through discipleship. After a career as a college president, Medders now visits dozens of college campuses annually and speaks on the hope for higher ed. This is a timely podcast as much of the news has covered the failure of higher ed, and specifically a large number of Christian colleges shutting down. In the midst of that, Medders stresses the need for flexibility, spiritual leadership, and listening to God's voice in shaping the future of education.
