Jeremiah 29:11

After a semester at North Central, I realized that it was not exactly what I had expected. Although the spiritual atmosphere is awesome, the people in charge of the program I'm in and many of the relationships I have with my professors have less than impressed me. Also, being a homebody, Cain obviously not helping, 10 hours feels like an eternity away and a month like a year. Therefore, yesterday my dad and I went on a college visit to Bethel College in Mishawalka, IN about 2 and a half hours from my house. They also have an ASL program and after spending a few hours there I have to admit that it was pretty impressive. They made it clear to me that they take pride in educating their students and making sure they are as prepared as possible to get a job when they graduate. On the other hand, it is a Missionary Church based school not AG so that would be different for me. The department chair was not even saved when she was hired, which would not happen at NCU. I would definitely miss the spiritual atmosphere of NCU and the powerful preaching of Dr. Anderson (Gosh I love him! haha) but I'm really praying about the direction God wants me to go. If he wants me to go strictly for interpreting, I'm definitely going to Bethel. However, if he wants me to use my degree for ministry I firmly believe toughing it out at NCU is the answer. So I am going to ask all of you to be praying with me for guidance throughout this next semester to make the right decision. Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.
