After looking at 1 Corinthians 3: 1-2, I have come to the conclusion that most church members only want infant food. Think of your church; how many of the people in your church are actively seeking new understanding about God? How many of us ministry students are actively seeking new understanding about God? I know that there is an argument that most of the people in church are not ready for the real food of God’s Word, but there are some – and they are not being provided for. Christian books and studies are utter vanity. They are the same empty messages that we have read and heard for the last fifty years. No wonder the world looks down on Christian writers and scholars – their work sucks! How will we, the next generation – nay the current generation of Christian writers and scholars provide meaningful, scriptural food for our flock and disciples.

Well of course they only want Gerber's, Danny; to want more is to want cerebral stimulation of a type that is vigorously discouraged by American Christianity. Although the last few decades have seen a resurgence in the excellence of American theological scholarship, this has yet to filter through the broad laity, if indeed it ever shall.
