The university where I went to graduate school and the hospital system where I gave birth to my children were founded by Christians motivated by loving their neighbor. But it would be difficult to call either place “Christian” these days. I know the same thing is true for many schools and hospitals across the Western world, and I’m wondering––does it matter? What, if anything, is lost when the people in an organization aren’t motivated by its original mission?
You’re right something is lost. When people are no longer motivated by their faith to do the good work of healing and teaching, they need another motivation. In some cases, it’s the desire to help someone else. (That’s a desire, by the way, that stems from the Christian values sunk deep into our culture). But when things get tough, that vague motivation can crumble. Often the underlying motivation comes to rest on contracts and incentives.
