The following Faith on the Road podcast episode features Dr. David Wang who serves as professor of psychology and spiritual formation at Fuller Seminary. Dr. Wang describes how his research over the last ten years, funded by the Templeton Foundation, unveils a sad reality. In North America, students are leaving theological semaries without a significant level of spiritual formation or maturity. Instead of a deep spiritual life, students demonstrate high levels of people pleasing tendancies and social conformity dispositions.
