Kristina B
The Business program at Grace is ministry-focused. It’s about learning how to use what you study to serve in any way God calls you. I really liked the community aspect and how Grace is so focused on ministry in every part of your life — no matter what you end up doing. The community has really shaped me — especially this year — by challenging each other and helping us grow into people who follow God in every part of our lives.

The Human Services program here at ºÚÁϳԹÏÍõ equips students to serve God and others in their community. The professors really care for you as a person. They don’t just care about grading your assignments — they want to see you grow. We do a lot of hands-on experience, getting outside and working through real scenarios. During my first year, God placed on my heart a passion to serve others.

The Biblical Studies program is transformational. If you’re looking for a place that teaches the Bible, with professors who care about you and small class sizes where you can have one-on-one discussions —this is the place to be. The professors are kind and truthful about the Gospel. It’s a great place to learn the Word of the Lord. The professors here have changed my way of thinking. Conversations with people like Kyle Van and Jake Rogers have helped me learn and talk through hard topics.

The Biblical Studies program at ºÚÁϳԹÏÍõ is Christ-centered. All the professors here are amazing — each with their own personality, but the same passion for God.

The Criminal Justice program at Grace is full of tons of opportunities and it’s super exciting. You get to go on different trips, experience what it’s really like, and meet officers in the field.

The Psychology program at Grace Christian is eye-opening. The professors are great — very encouraging. It’s one-on-one, with wonderful internship opportunities and amazing guest speakers. Going into a mental health field can be heavy, so I wanted faith incorporated into my career. That’s what drew me to Grace.

I believe that God has used everyone to inspire me to keep going and reach my goal. Something they all had in common was that they always made me feel their concern for my spiritual life. And this, as a leader, has inspired me to do the same in the church that God has called us to serve.

I thank God for the entire faculty at Grace. Each of my professors was a fundamental part of my growth and academic success. They challenged me not to give up, to keep fighting and achieve my goals. I felt cared for and guided. At all times, I could feel that they were praying for me. On some occasions, when I needed a little more time to turn in my assignments, they were sensitive to my needs while remaining firm.
