Enter the modern world of public higher education—a place where organizational politics, power, and corruption flourish. Explore the inside drama of daily life on America’s campuses. Discover why many believe the lethal maneuvers in the Pentagon truly pale in comparison to the power and politics that permeate the hallways behind the Ivory Tower’s facade. Walk through the serene veil that obscures the true nature of many universities.Behind the distinguished brick architecture and the peaceful serenity of flowers, trees, and landscaped grounds, there is a brutish private face of academia that few discern. Beyond the boundaries of classroom walls, the routine activities of teaching and learning become secondary, negligible efforts. In this story, you will encounter an organizational culture where anger, greed, arrogance, and prejudice nurture and reward corruption. Examine the intrigue behind a complex set of relationships where power brokers strike unholy deals and crush those who stand in their way. Experience the undercurrents of unabashed evil where senior faculty “eat their young” and many campus administrators believe, like Machiavelli, the end always justifies the means.

Every morning as I start the engine of my car, I hear this slogan on my favorite radio station. “The world is changing—are you listening?”No truer statement is heard in all of radio land. The world is indeed changing. But as Christians, are we listening?On an even deeper level, a better question to ask might be not “Are we listening to the world?” but “Are we listening to God?” God is speaking to each of us in a language we understand—but do we hear his voice? And are we able to distinguish his voice from the voices of the world?Change is surely coming. As Christians, we are challenged to strengthen ourselves in the faith in a world out of control. But to do so, we must hear from the Lord. Just as Noah was instructed to build an ark for a world that he had not yet experienced, so too are we called to prepare ourselves for the coming days. Noah built on faith, hearing, and obedience. So must we.A Walk With The Savior is a reflective book for those committed to going deeper. Serious topics challenge those who hunger for solid food.
