Why Regent University?

Regent University offered a unique perspective in undergraduate studies. Christ-centered leadership and biblically centered classes develop students professionally and personally. The campus is beautiful, and I soon found that my professors and my fellow students exuded enthusiasm and dedication to the Lord and their educational pursuits. Classmates prayed with me and for me; studying became a group effort towards excellence and not just another homework assignment.

Why Online Learning?

I was 21 when I started the online learning program at Regent University. I had the opportunity to dual-enroll in a local college while in high school, so my associates degree was partially complete when I graduated in 2002. I hit the ground running by working full time after graduating from high school, attending night classes to finish my associates degree. I guess I got used to the schedule, and when it came time to find a university to transfer to, I knew I'd want a flexible format that would allow me to continue in my professional endeavors.

Why A Business Degree?

My degree is in Organizational Leadership and Management. I chose this concentration because of the unique mix of business strategy and leadership development. In choosing a degree program I wanted one that would emphasize the "people" part of organizations and their strategic development. Some degree programs focus primarily on the financial and strategic side of business development, but Regent stressed the importance of the organization's people and the effectiveness of biblical leadership.

Business Degree

Still learning.

I am aware that part of my sabbath learning experience requires that I go to sleep earlier. And, while I have so much to say about what I've learned today, and what God taught me, I know better than to start writing it all now. All I can say is that when you start deliving into what the Lord teaches, be prepared for multiple lessons that jump out at you in the way people talk, the things you happen to read, and generally your daily walk. Maybe this is the "walk" that Christian leaders talk about. I'm almost feeling like I might, just might, be on the cusp of learning what this is.

Currently rested from my rest of reading in Proverbs 12, and the MacDonald text.

I shall shower and go to bed at a reasonable hour.

What a concept :0)
