LU gave me the tools I needed ... to grow my church ...
"I always wanted to continue my education. But living in Amarillo and loving my church was a huge reason not to pack up to the nearest seminary in Texas. I began to research different online seminaries, and Liberty University was very impressive. The theology was very conservative, the leadership was outstanding, the cost was affordable, and I could set my own schedule and not have to leave my town to do this. I enjoyed my professors and learned a lot about the word of God, but also how to grow a church. LU gave me the tools I needed to continue to grow in the comfort of my own home. I have been able to grow my church through the knowledge gained at LU. It has more than paid for itself!"
