The root of the battle in this nation primarily lies in the area of education and the seminaries. There’s been a 26-percent drop-off of MDiv students over the last 20 years, with the number of men pursuing MDivs dropping by 22 percent, and the number of women dropping off by 33 percent. But while the seminary attendance has dropped by 26 percent overall, the number of seminaries has increased by 20 percent. This means the smaller seminaries are growing and expanding across the country. We’re getting back into the discipleship boat with Jesus. You can’t mass-produce discipleship. You can’t over-specialize discipleship. Instead, we must bring our focus back the Bible as the foundation of all of our knowledge, and bring back relationships, one at a time.
