Parkinson's Law

Parkinson's Law says, "Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion."
 
Have you noticed that most of our Adult Bible classes are examples of Parkinson's Law? While their class goes on forever the teachers remind us again and again "We aren't in a hurry."
 
Colleges and universities limit courses to quarters or semesters and after a few years graduate students ready to put their studies to good use. While our Adult Bible classes produce "graduates" who remain pretty much Bible illiterate.
