Spiritual Vitamins for America The Christian College has a major contribution to make to higher education in America today. It has a particular spiritual heritage to transmit without which our country will slowly but surely be undermined and perish. What are the fundamental elements in that heritage? Basic to all is faith in God—God the Father, the Lord and Creator of all that exists; God the Son, Who came to earth for us, was crucified, died, and rose again; God the Holy Spirit, indwelling the Church, sustaining, guiding, controlling the hearts of His children. Faith in the Triune God, the Infinite Person, is the only secure foundation for the building of all personal life, both in the individual and in society. God has revealed Himself to us in His Word. He has given us minds able to ex- plore truth in every realm of learning. But He has also given us His Revelation, to guide our steps through this world and to light the path to eternity. The Bible is a price- less and precious part of our American heritage. It is a vast and inexhaustible storehouse of spiritual light and power, for us and for all mankind. But religious faith and trust must issue in practice! And Christian education makes clear also the fundamental principle of moral action: the law of love. The deepest wis- dom of earth’s philosophers and moralists is summarized and transcended in the ideal of Christlike love and service. To love God with all one’s heart and one’s fellowmen as oneself, this is the secret of both happiness and successful living. In Browning’s strik- ing words, ‘’All our life ... is just our chance of the prize of learning love. The Church colleges are but a part of the total program of American higher educa- tion. But their contribution to that program is of inestimable importance. Sending forth, year by year, a steady stream of graduates in whom these basic spiritual realities—faith in God and His Word, and obedience to His law of love—are dominant, the Christian college helps to provide the very vitamins of our life as a nation. To have a part in this strategic task is Augsburg’s ongoing glory. BERNHARD CHRISTENSEN
