The Practicle Application of Delight-Directed Study

Saturday Aug. 21, 2004

Is it realistic to expect every student to enjoy learning even difficult material? Gregg Harris believes that every human being has a God-given appetite for a mental challenge. We actually enjoy wrestling with difficult ideas — that the mind likes to “chew” on interesting information. The problem is, we too often allow our mental appetites to be spoiled. First, by being “force fed” on required but often irrelevant material, or second, by letting our minds indulge in the false satisfaction of mental junk food. If we trust in the goodness of God we can learn how to prepare a delightful feast for each hungry mind. In fact it will be our delight to do so!
