We place great importance on academic learning. We have come to appreciate the training of the mind to retain and process knowledge as a necessary companion to wisdom. Some might say that book knowledge is what the house of true wisdom is made of. The mind is the front door to the soul where we live. So we value classroom time and hitting the books and paying tuition as a necessary achievement. People mortgage house and future to put their children through this time honored birthright called “higher” education. But when we are talking about learning the Bible, it is different from learning science or engineering or medicine. From God’s perspective learning is coming to know Him more perfectly. Academics fills the mind but true Bible learning transforms it! [Romans 12:2]. Learning with God means a change in perspective on what is reasonable.. We are learning to trust and appreciate our Lord’s leadership in ways that academics will never teach us [Psalm 25:4].
