The university is a place for growth, and at Trinity Western, a large component of that is intended to be growth as Christians. In our last issue an article examining the deconstructionism of the Christian faith spurred us to examine just what type of citizens TWU is producing, and how or if we as students are being developed into ‘godly Christian leaders.’

Who influences our school? To figure this out, we asked an assortment of professors and staff to nominate students. Here is a selection of their picks, in no particular order.

This summer, Israel will be a first-time destination for a TWU travel study, and have one of the greatest amount of participation.

Saeed, a ten-year-old Arab boy, waits for his cousin almost every morning on a hill near his house. As the day passes, more boys gather–they throw rocks, taunt passing girls on bikes and play hide and seek among the large cement blocks littering the town. Though this may seem like standard adolescent dynamics, it is not. Saeed’s cousin has to scrape through a hole in a barbed wire fence every day to experience this aspect of childhood. The cousin lives in the West Bank and is kept from family and friends in Israel by an extensive security barrier which traverses between Israel and Palestinian National Authority (PNA) territory.
