Some advice for Seminary students
Not from me, but from a fellow student on the East coast. Jake Belder writes in "Make Yourself at Home":
"… seminary can sometimes come to be viewed more as a means to an end or as a stepping stone than a time of formation and growth…. Understanding seminary as a stepping stone to something else will only lead you to view your whole life at that particular time and place as a stepping stone. You will never fully unpack the boxes, so to speak. Your apartment will be more like a hotel room than a home." (He then offers some advice on two fronts: relationships and church.)

Thanks for the link, I’m glad you appreciated the post. It’s a lesson I kind of had to teach myself over the past year.
