“Years ago I really felt called by God to minister to students via education programs. The goal is to impart wisdom and not just knowledge. Many adults hit work ceilings because of circumstances, gender, past limitations, etc. Continuing education will help overcome some of these barriers. What a privilege to help students of any age understand more about the Lord and about life!”
