“I graduated from Regent University with a M.A. in Practical Theology. As I stand at the doorstep of my calling, I can see now how every lesson and interaction has prepared me.”
Son-Djerry Cameus, M.A. in Practical Theology, 2020 Community Navigator/Family Coach, La Esperanza
“I look back at my time at Regent as one of the best, God-led decisions in my life. In all the fun, networking, late-night studying, classes and meaningful conversations with fellow students and professors, God did a deeper work within me that I am forever grateful for. Regent University for me was more than a place of knowledge—it is a place where God speaks, forms, and prepares us for the High Calling he has on our lives for His glory! It was a place I was given tools for life and ministry. I am forever grateful for my time Regent and what Regent has meant for me and what it has been and will be for me and thousands of past and future students!”
Carl Ness, Master of Arts in Practical Theology, 2017
“My mentor is providing insight about the program and helping me navigate expectations and motivation to give myself grace. He is also helping me to understand my purpose and the change maker I am. He provides experience and insight about his time in the DSL program. I am thankful for my mentor and the wisdom he provides. It has been very meaningful, and I look forward to continuing this mentorship. I believe this program is vital to being in the DSL program and really all programs at Regent if it were to be implemented. The guidance and mentorship are amazing, and I am thankful to be a part of this program”
Omar Ross, Doctor of Strategic Leadership, 2029 Mentee
“When I began working for the state of Texas, I immediately began putting the values of servant leadership and ethics I learned at Regent into practice. My Christian faith holds me together and helps me fight tooth-and-nail as an advocate for justice.”
Grace Pandithurai, J.D., 2010 Assistant District Attorney
“Regent's M.Ed. in TESOL program has prepared me to organize and run the ESL courses at my school. Regent's TESOL professors assign the most applicable projects, which have helped me with planning lessons, selecting curriculum and creating assessments, as well as with conducting several teacher-in-service sessions for my school.”
Katherine Tipton, M.Ed., 2011 Teacher
