Personal statement
It is a challenging time for higher education, as scholarship and even science itself are endangered by anti-Christian ideologies that usurp and even mock the pursuit of truth. Students need the truth to be taught in all its purity more than ever. The Concordias should be uncompromisingly dedicated both to educational and scientific integrity and to eternal, biblical truths about sin, salvation, and mercy. Boards must support teachers and administrators in the pursuit of excellence, integrity, and uncompromising dedication to the Holy Scriptures and the Lutheran Confessions. I have over 30 years of experience in higher education and would contribute my experience to maintaining and improving the colleges.
