Good Girl

Every class, no matter if it’s in-person or online, no matter the subject at hand, is one that prepares you as a missionary and leader first and an academic second.

In my time at Southeastern, I have loved having the privilege of learning theology and how to serve the Lord among those with similar desires for ministry. The atmosphere of kindness and service has always been my favorite aspect when on campus, and through Southeastern, I know I am being equipped and encouraged daily to serve where God has called me.
