About This Issue: May 7, 1965

Samuel Turner, Jr., traces the effect of professorial skepticism on his thinking and ministry and his subsequent recovery of faith in the Bible (see opposite page). Elsewhere in this education issue, several key questions are discussed: What about the biblical illiteracy of most students from church-going families? How can college Bible courses be upgraded? Should there be more Protestant schools?

Our lead editorial considers basic planning for Christian education.

Also in this issue

The CT archives are a rich treasure of biblical wisdom and insight from our past. Some things we would say differently today, and some stances we've changed. But overall, we're amazed at how relevant so much of this content is. We trust that you'll find it a helpful resource.
