1. I GOT ACCEPTED! I’M GOING BACK TO SCHOOL!
A few weeks ago I wrote that I applied to the ThD program at United Theological Seminary. After applying I learned that they were only accepting 7 students. Of course, I immediately pushed myself to number 8. In fact, in the last few weeks, I completed the grief cycle. I was thoroughly prepared for the “thanks for applying, but…” email. Then the Uno Reverse came!
I’m beyond thankful for the opportunity, and ready to put in some good work! Thank you to everyone who prayed for me! Now I’ve got to go and buy a Trapper Keeper!
2. Prayer Requests in Light of #1
Finances: God has already provided by clearing the path, please pray for financial assistance.
Time Management: I’m a husband, a father of 5, and I will continue to serve as a pastor while pursuing this degree. Managing my time effectively will be crucial if I am to succeed.
Wisdom, Holy Curiosity, and Creativity
Diligence and Consistency
Finally, please pray for me when the workload gets heavy and I inevitably regret this decision. 😇
3. Me in a Few Weeks:
So excited! Have a great week!
You and God will make a great team in this endeavor. You have a great thirst for learning and for a relationship with God.
Peace and Blessings,
Jean Gerhardt
