These words, expressing a lofty sentiment, are etched in letters of marble on the capitol grounds of the state of California. Per- haps an expression more in keeping with the realities of our times would be give us men to match our problems. You face the greatest challenge and opportunity that history has given any generation. Nuclear war and dictatorship, massive inequality and division--all the result of sin-- threaten the world . At this important juncture of your life you face a needy world with the assurance that you know One who can solve the problems of mankind. You have spent your college days preparing yourself for Christian service. Now you begin the next phase of Christian experience. May I suggest, if you have not already done so, that you attempt to determine where God wants you. Submit yourself completely to the will of God. Seek the counsel of older brethren. Opportunity is to be found everywhere. Work for the Lord where you are. May you, in every sense, be a real man or a real women. Today's world needs big people, not biq in stature or avoirdupois, but in character and spirit. Your training at North Central Bible College is but a beginning. Serve God in His will whether it be as a pastor or painter, evangelist or electrician, missionary or mechanic teacher or truck driver. Be a man of the Book. The world is full of books, but there is only one Book that is the Word of God. Be a man of vision, for where there is no vision the people perish. And this vision is far more than the perceptions of those cultured in the ways of the natural man. Be a man o'f compassion. It is not enough to see need, it must be felt. Iesus saw , and then He was moved with compassion. Be a man of faith and courage. Only such will meet the challenge of this hour. Let' excellence, not just acceptability, characterize your life. Holding Christ pre- eminent, making Him first, doing all 'things as unto Him can be nothing but synonym for excellence. Go in His strength, and He will grant you the success that He alone can give. Sincerely yours in Christ, G . Raymond Carlson President 14
