In Part 6 of Pastor Derek Buikema’s interview with Rod Dreher, author of The Benedict Option and blogger at American Conservative, Pastor Derek asks how Christian colleges can stay faithful to Christ.

He offers a vision of the narrow gate and hard path that is now set before Christians in America, and what this will require of us if we seek to remain connected to God. He warns especially about the failure of Christians to “fully grasp how much the world gets into us.”
