As an LU faculty member I was pleasantly surprised by Kevin’s statements. LU is an excellent university and holds several major accreditations. I think Kevin is right in pointing out that we need to dialogue more. The more we understand each other the less “scary” things become.

Being the unlikely disciple, I hope the author came tp know that all the apostles were unlikely disciples and that Jesus by his blood alone has allowed us to receive the free gift of salvation Praise the Lord! let us pray for all those who do not know Jesus YET!

As a mom of a Liberty University student, I was surprised and pleased when I started reading this book. Kevin is a talented author - the book really pulled me in. Also, Kevin was open to what he experienced at Liberty and I was thrilled that he didn't write this book in order to trash the school and the people he met there. Biggest surprise upon reading - that Kevin found the classes there really hard and challenging, since Liberty doesn't yet have a strong academic reputation. My child had the option to go to a large secular university but picked Liberty because of the emphasis on a strong Christian community - which my child wanted after visiting friends at the other school and observing the social life there.
