"A student who is simply gripped by the subject of theology and can not turn away from it can consider that a calling. But certainly, it must be what theology is really about that enthralls a student- a real readiness to think about God, the Word, and the will of God, a "delight in the law of the LORD" and readiness to meditate on it "day and night,"' a real willingness to work seriously, to study, and to think" Dietrich Bonhoeffer "What Should A Student of Theology Do Today"
