"Spiritual warmth and good personal skills are not sufficient qualifications for ministry, however. A man who possesses these qualifications but who is unlearned is no more ready for ministry than a brilliant but spiritually cold theological pontificateur. Both learning and piety, both knowledge and practical skill are necessary.
Of course, at the end of the day we have no guarantees. Even an educated person can learn the wrong things. Worse yet, he can become proud of his learning. That is why learning must always be coupled with piety and with experience. Still, learning is one part of the equipment that a pastor or missionary must have when he approaches the work that God gives him to do. Heart and mind and hands must work together to the glory of God."
