Episode 163 | The Church & Higher Ed, Part 4: The Online Model
Mar 20, 2024 • Autumn Gardner, Dave Morlan, Earl Waggoner
Are students who enter institutions of higher learning fundamentally in need of equipping or transformation? Is the goal of Christian higher ed to produce trained workers or vocationally-minded followers of Jesus? Or is the dichotomy not that simple?
Dr. Earl Waggoner, Dean of the School of Biblical and Theological Studies at Colorado Christian University, sits down with Dave and Autumn to discuss the advantages of online learning, particularly for adult students. Dr. Waggoner shares his perspective on the state of Christian higher education and discusses how CCU's College of Adult and Graduate Studies is navigating the tensions within higher education.
