A Community Called....

I spent the weekend with two of my very good friends exploring the possibility of higher education through Asbury Theological Seminary in Kentucky.
My undergrad experience has been more than I could have expected, but I don't think that I am as fully prepared for a life of ministry as I could be; thus the reason I am considering the Master of Arts program in World Missions and Evangelism at Asbury. The institution is so much like Huntingdon, except better in so many ways. Its about the same size as Huntingdon, just without the silly freshmen and high school drama. The community is loving and welcoming; you can't help but love it. There is a chapel in every building. How many schools can say that?! They even have three services a week for chapel. I love that.
Not to mention the fact that the location is beautiful. I love Kentucky. I love the mountains, the caverns, the windy roads...and the sweet little town of Wilmore. So, I love the place, I love the people...but is this where I am supposed to go?

"The Lord is with you, where ever you go."
This was the message of one of the professors who spoke at a chapel service we attended. It's an incredibly reassuring statement that is incredibly valid for all of us.

I'm not sure what God's plan is for my future, one thing that I am certain of is that I have been called to ministry. I pray for discernment as I continue on this journey.
