RICH MOUW WANTS FULLER TO BE JOYFUL

RICH MOUW WANTS FULLER TO BE JOYFUL ".... I have been thinking a lot recently about the need for Fuller Seminary to be a “joyful brand.” Each year I ask a group representing various seminary constituencies—faculty, staff, and student leaders—to choose a theme for the year, along with an accompanying biblical passage. The theme that they chose for this academic year is based on Romans 12:12:“Rejoice in hope, be patient in suffering, persevere in prayer.” This gives me a nice three-stage plan for the addresses I give to the community at the beginning of each of three academic terms during the year: “Joy” for the first talk, “Patience” next, and then “Perseverance.”
