While I think this certainly constitutes a change in direction from what NBBC was say 15 years ago, I view it as moderately positive. I will say I would prefer the former position of the school, but Mohler is a smart, solid guy. Not surprisingly, I have some separation problems with him, but he is clearly and firmly conservative. This should provide an anchor for Northland to keep them from sliding off into doctrinal oblivion as they settle into their new identity. What I am wondering is how it will benefit Northland. I just don’t see Southern Baptists sending their kids there for undergrad work when there are so many other, seemingly more attractive choices available - i.e. accredited, broader selections of majors, more students, better weather, bigger cities (for recreation and jobs). I am still not sure what the draw will be.
Why is it that my voice always seems to be loudest when I am saying the dumbest things?
