Listen "Ken Dickens and Rod Thompson: The History of CEN"
Episode Synopsis
This I got to sit down with Dr Rod Thompson and Dr Ken Dickens, a couple of men that have been a significant part of our network for a number of decades. Rod as the coordinator of biblical foundations and lecturer in the National Institute, and Ken serving for a stint as the CEO of the network, principal of the national institute, and in more recent years, a lecturer too.Ken is part of a team that is putting together a history of our network to be released early next year, and I thought as part of the lead up to the book, I would sit down with him and Rod to get a sense of what it’s been like to have been part of the ongoing character and story of CEN. This is an extended episode because we cover a lot here, from the beginnings of the network including its underlying theological commitments, through to the growth phase, interactions with other groups and networks, and challenges looking forward. It was a really nice way to get a snapshot of what has made us who we are and capture something of these two guys as the pass on the baton.
