Highlights from the Speech

‍

"Technology can be a good servant, but it is always a tyrannical master." - Nicholas Senz

‍

"You have been equipped to go into the world without losing your humanity. You've been educated, and formed, and molded. We hope to grasp and to grok what is good and true and beautiful. To desire it and seek it and take joy in finding it. Keep up that pursuit because if you do, you will find in fact that you are the one being pursued. That God is pursuing you, hoping to catch you up into his arms like a loving father." - Nicholas Senz

‍

"Truth is relational and personal. In fact, truth is a person." - Nicholas Senz
