Dr. Mike Lawson, chair and senior professor of Christian Education, reflects upon the words found in Daniel 5 "mene, mene, teqel, and pharsin," which communicate the idea of being "weighed and found wanted." In this message, Dr. Lawson challenges us to meditate on these ancient words and reflect upon whether we have a prideful attitude that must be confessed to the Lord.
