Being the Best We Can Be

My name is David Cantor and I graduated from Bob Jones University in 1996 with a degree in biology.

I am so grateful for the excellent science training I received at BJU. It has served as a solid foundation to prepare me for the past 15 years serving in my family’s biotechnology company, Scantibodies Laboratory—first as a laboratory chemist and then in the sales arena.

Paul exhorts in 1 Corinthians 10:31, “... whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.” Part of being a good testimony is to train to be the best one can be in whatever area God calls him to serve. Nowhere is this more critical than in the sciences—where God is attacked from every side. Scientists that hold to a biblical view of the world are increasingly maligned and ridiculed as religious fanatics. More than ever, the science industry needs Christians who stand for the truth and are able to communicate their beliefs effectively.

Christian students studying science need the highest caliber teachers possible—and that is why I was thrilled when I first heard about the Science & Engineering Endowment Fund. One of the problems for a Christian doing cancer research is that all research is done in secular, non-God-honoring institutions. Wouldn’t God want to honor an institution that honors Him with discoveries that would benefit the cancer patient? For this reason I am excited to see the start of the Bob Jones University Cancer Research Center—a recipient of a grant from the Science & Engineering Endowment Fund.

I would like to challenge you to play a part in this wonderful endowment fund. Together, let’s do what we can financially so that this endowment becomes fully funded. Would you give sacrificially along with me so that future generations of scientists can be given the best scientific tools possible before they are sent out into a lost world that desperately needs to know the Truth?

Thank you in advance,

David Cantor
