Hello ,
Admiral Hyman G. Rickover, father of the nuclear submarine, was skeptical of business school
graduates. Having interviewed some 14,000 of them over a period of years, he found them fluent in the jargon of systems analysis, financial manipulation, and quantitative management (whatever that is). But, he claimed that they just don't know the score.
He felt most of them had an unrealistic impression of what is involved in business and little appreciation of the importance of technical
knowledge, experience, and hard work. "What it takes to do the job will not be learned from management courses," said Rickover. "It is principally a matter of experience, the proper attitude, and common sense--none of which can be taught in a classroom."
The same is true with Christian experience. We can read, know, and understand
doctrine, but until we have experienced the love of Christ in our own lives we are never really changed. Experience with Him can teach us things. Have you experienced Christ today in your life?
Have a great day and God bless!
