Hello world!
The church I grew up in was a Southern Baptist church in Pittsburg, TX that gave me a strong foundation for my faith. I attended college at Texas A&M University in College Station, TX. During college, I was involved in a non-denominational church that held a similar theology and organizational structure to the Baptist church from home. At this church I really learned how to dig in and study God’s word. My husband and I currently attend Harris Creek Baptist Church. We are involved in a small group on Sunday nights with other married couples from the church. We serve by helping with preschool care on Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights.
From Texas A&M I obtained my Bachelor of Business Administration in Marketing as well as a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish. I am currently working towards a Masters of Divinity in Missions and World Christianity at Truett.
Our plans after Truett are not completely laid out just yet. My husband and I both just want to serve the Lord wherever he leads us to go. My personal calling is to serve in the area of missions.
As a Christian leader and minister my whole goal of attending Truett is to obtain more biblical knowledge to better equip me to disciple and serve people on all levels of biblical understanding. I need to be intentional and diligent in studying the Bible to be able to teach it effectively to others. Seminary has been a bit of an informational overload for me, but I always just think back to my main goal of wanting to know more than I do now. So I may not be able to grasp or hold onto every bit of information from this class, but I expect that it will move me closer to my goal of knowing and understanding more about the Bible.
