As you guys have noticed that I am an official graduate from Global University Berean School Of The Bible. I got my Ministerial Studies with Leadership Honors which provides more challenging ministry and training.
The Story Behind This:
I remember there were a lot of questions from people who thought that I should first pursue a degree before getting my credentials. While my church has split in 2015 and the transition was going on I was still a senior in high school wanting to join an internship that was unavailable. So I was recommended to do Berean School of the Bible to prepare myself towards my credentialing qualifications to be able to a minister. While I understand that it is not a degree but an opportunity to get the required courses to qualify there have been additional suggestions to get a degree first. I knew deep within my spirit that God wanted me to first pursue my credentials to accomplish the confirmation of the Call of God in my life. I did take their suggestion that college may be apart of my life in the future but I was solid on my goal to be able to accomplish my credentialing requirements.
I pushed and finally got my license to be a minister with the Assemblies of God in 2017 and now expecting to be ordained in 2020. I was on fire and passionate to get that goal accomplished. Then afterward I felt the call to finally pursue a degree which is where my next goal comes into play. I now attend Southeastern University on a mission to get my bachelor in Ministerial Leadership. I started online at first but then noticed that I am extroverted and really needed a community and be apart of a university. Which is how I found the extension site at The House of Modesto. I prayed and decided to transfer to the extension site for the mere purpose of being involved in a community of believers. After more than a year being apart of SEUNORCAL I have connected with a lot of people, being apart of their Student Leadership Body, and making memories with people who want to push me towards my calling to impact the Kingdom of God. I still have a year and a half more until I finish my degree but I am enjoying the moment and memories to be able to influence and build up those around me. I may not know the process that God has in your life.
My life as a young minister has been to completely surrender my life to Him. The more I keep going step after step with the direction that He has provided in my life the more opportunities will follow. While we tend to make things happen or force things to come we know at the end of the day it won’t work. We need to trust God with His plan no matter how confusing situations may be or how discouraging it may be in the “process moments” in your life. Trust God… Don’t forget this is a journey of a lifetime.
