Jon, great to hear from you after so many years. I tried to send an email but it bounced back. You can email me at the address on the About Steve page.

I am one of those Ark roommates that Steve mentions. Although I did not realize it at the time, my time on a Ark was a truly wonderful time in my life and my spiritual development. I remember Steve with fondness and love.

Hey

Beautiful day, yes? Here, at least.
It’s interesting to read about your experience on de Ark. My mother
spent quite a time on de Ark years ago. I’m always eager to read more
So if you ever feel like expanding on those two years…I’d love to hear.
I’ve just left Bible College myself – had a similar experience to Stewie, I
guess, except being stubborn and stiff-necked refused to be sculpted
into a good preacher ;).

I think it’s an issue of context. Stewie had a tiny context in which to fit his learning. The only impact it could have was to strengthen small walls.

Your two years with YWAM (I’m fighting envy, btw) hugely expanded your context… so that when you added academic learning, it strengthened broad, tall, wide walls. I guess everything since has been about ever expanding those walls, but thankfully (because of your life-changing experience) they are strong enough to withstand it.

I like it Steve…do you think academic institutions should take more steps to be more for the heart and hands?
