If
you
are
like
most
Christian
professors,
you
have
felt
a
burden
for
your
colleagues
and
have
wanted
to
reach
out
to
them,
to
minister
to
them
--
especially
those
closest
to
you.
Perhaps
you
just
haven't
done
so
because
you
haven't
been
able
to
think
of
an
appropriate
way.
One
of
the
real
keys
of
ministry
is
to
address
felt
needs.
Perhaps
the
universally
perceived
need
of
professors
in
academia
is
time
management,
effectiveness.
What
better
way
to
minister
to
busy
colleagues
who
are
all
under
pressure
to
produce
than
to
offer
to
help
them
become
more
effective.
Dr.
Joseph
(Rae)
Mellichamp,
professor
emeritus
of
the
University
of
Alabama,
created
a
set
of
discussion
notes
for
the
highly
popular
book
The
Seven
Habits
of
Highly
Effective
People
that
has
proven
useful
in
ministering
to
colleagues.
