S2E27 - Why a Biblical Education Matters in the Construction Field

This podcast features two Institute alum, Matthew Parker and Stephen Carver, who are both employed in the construction industry while also working as pastors and development workers. Joined by hosts Gregg Garner and Jeff Sherrod, the four discuss changing job opportunities for graduates of Christian colleges, focusing on non-traditional ministry roles. They stress the importance of values and social intelligence gained from a biblical education in preparing for a job, while offering some critique to traditional Bible colleges for focusing too narrowly on academic knowledge. The four highlight the need for holistic development and intentional preparation for various career paths, integrating biblical teachings with practical skills.
