The Quaker revival

[Earth Wind and Fire]

I would like to hear more about that revival.

Where do you live( because different places have differences)

 

[Earth Wind and Fire]

I don't doubt that there are still students and faculty that are biblically sound and take their commitment to Jesus seriously at George Fox U. But, from what I have heard and read regarding the behavior of much of the student body, it appears to me that George Fox is going the way of the world much like other once sound schools like Westmont, Peppermint, Cal Lutheran, etc.

Unfortunately, often times what appears in the student handbooks in these schools regarding expectations of students code of conduct seems more geared towards reassuring parents and prospective donars than anything else (IMHO).

BTW, I believe that the entire state of Oregon is spiritual wasteland and I pray for revival here. There are Bible believing Mennonite and Old Believer communities here, but too often they keep to themselves in an effort to keep their communities unstained from the world. Some of the Mennonites do outreach to the homeless and vets on the street. Some volunteer at our local food pantry and are permitted to share their testimonies as well as sharing produce they grow through the summer. Males the ♥ glad!

IOW… it’s a product, not a business.

If what you say about Oregon is true then Im conserned because my son and family are living there in Bend. It appears to be a fairly homogeneous community…but not church orientated. W/O good churches my grandchildren will not have access to biblical discipleship. For that, I much prefer places like Virgina, Tennessee of the Carolinas.
