Leaders vs. Managers

Thoughts taken from a talk by Hugh Nibley:
Leaders to Managers: The Fatal Shift
Classic education, which Christianity embraced at the urging of St. Augustine, believed that you can’t trust revelation because revelation cannot be controlled by man. The Spirit bloweth where it listeth (John 3:8).
St. Augustine believed the Church needed something more reliable than man empowered to act according to the dictates of his heart and mind as directed by God. And so Universities took on a form counterfeiting the Temple, or as I feel it should be called-The University of God.
