(From our series “The Best or Worst Advice I’ve Ever Received.”)

H. Lynn Gardner provided advice I have used and given to others. Lynn is a former academic dean at Ozark Christian College and a former teacher at Central Christian College of the Bible.

Lynn”s advice concerned a procedure when making a major decision: Make the decision (after careful consideration), and then live with that decision for two weeks to see if you are still comfortable with it. Others involved in the decision may be informed of the two-week time factor. This allows a different conclusion to be reached without compromising personal integrity.

Lloyd M. Pelfrey is retired president of Central Christian College of the Bible, Moberly, Missouri.
