We all know we want education to be brilliant, and we quickly start reaching for words like excellence and the best and the 90th percentile. Education opens the door to money and choice, so it’s obviously the most competitive and controversial aspect of our culture. But Paul would say “Money and choice are what you want if you haven’t worked out something better to want.” Paul would ask, “What exactly is education for?” He would look at you and wonder, “In what way is your education making you more ready to come face-to-face with God? How is your education preparing you to bring the whole creation before God?” - Sam Wells
