Attending Grace Christian University was one of the most incredible experiences of my life … Some of the most impactful moments for me were the weekly devotionals in class. So many times, the devotionals aligned with my life or my current challenges.

The prayers and support that I have received from the faculty and staff at Grace Christian University has been more than an encouragement, it is a motivation. This experience has been very humbling and has allowed me to let God work in me and through me at a much deeper level.

My most memorable experience was how wonderful my professors were. Not only were they extremely knowledgeable, they were as compassionate as they were knowledgeable. Their expertise and competence, along with their compassion, gave me the courage and support I needed to grow as a student.

Servant Leadership was one of the many courses I took while at Grace, and this course better prepared me for the career of law enforcement and ministry that I’m currently working in. In order to be the best leader I was created to be, I learned that I can never lose my servant's heart.

I pursued this degree in an effort to continue to develop my ability to serve God by leading my congregation. I have always enjoyed engaging deeper in issues related to faith and the church and saw this degree as a challenging way to do this.

The faculty was one of my favorite aspects of attending Grace... They assured me that I was capable of the dreams I have and explained to me how I could practically achieve them. Studying at Grace prepared me for ministry because of the Biblical foundation that was intertwined with all the education I received during my studies.

Grace was my home for over four years and during that time I was stretched academically, challenged spiritually, and intentionally walked alongside by many staff and faculty. College is all about finding yourself, your passions, your motives, your calling. Grace equipped me to continue in obedience to my calling of serving in full time ministry.
