This book shows convincingly, that--though Southeastern Seminary was founded as a progressive Southern Baptist institution of higher learning; though it did attempt to fulfill its educational mission somewhat differently from its sister seminaries, primarily because of some unique cultural circumstances in the region that it served; though it was characterized by a climate of warm ecumenism and intellectual honesty; and though, somewhat in the great 'pro humanitate' tradition of Wake Forest University, it did seek to mediate redemptively between the world and the Word--it did not set out to destroy the faith of its students or to denigrate the Bible or to champion the cause of theological liberalism over the cause of Christ.
