About the Book

Drawing from my experience both as a Christian leader and a lecturer over the years, the issue of how to combine one's Christian activities with one's academic pursuits has been a very thorny one. On one extreme, are those who believe that they are in school to study, have good grades and that the best way to testify their Christian faith is by being the best and graduating with honors and giving little or no time to the nourishment of their spiritual life. The former group of students devotes most of their time to studying with minimum time for spiritual activities or extra-curricular work. While there may be merit in this position, it ends up with the student being academically strong but spiritually weak, lacking spiritual qualities to meet with the challenges of life. On the other extreme are those who spend most of their time in various Christian activities and fellowship programmes to the point that they neglect their studies. The latter group of students soon finds out that their disposition mars their testimonies, puts them in confrontation with their parents and guardians and may lead to depression and in some cases backsliding from the faith. This book aims to bring balance between these two extremes. It helps the student to get a balance between his Christian activities and his commitment to his academic pursuits. I have often said that there is no dichotomy between the spiritual and the secular. Our devotion to God should make us possess extra-ordinary wisdom and knowledge beyond our contemporaries. Daniel 1:17, 20 reads, "As for these four children, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom, and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams... And in all matters of wisdom and understanding that the king inquired of them he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm." In this book, I offer practical steps and suggestions on how every student can maintain excellence both in his studies and in the pursuit of his faith. I wish I had these ideas over two decades ago when I was in school. However, I believe that this book will be widely circulated among students at all levels and it will bring up a generation that will be worthy of emulation in all aspects of life.
