Drs. Todd Ream and Jerry Pattengale, authors of The Anxious Middle: Planning for the Future of the Christian College, talked with LeTourneau University President Dr. Steven Mason about how institutes of Christian higher education can be well-positioned to navigate a climate of cultural change when they have established a clear sense of purpose. In addition to aspiration, the three discussed the importance of illumination and collaboration both within and outside the higher education sector. Ream and Pattengale also highlight the need for Christian institutions to serve the church and help the next generation navigate a world deeply dependent on science and technology.
