“All the professors at Regent are truly gracious and willing to talk to you and help you — even if it's not class-related. They treat their job like it's their calling. Through them, I learned to care for people like a pastor would.”
Derek Hirtz, M.Div., 2015
“I received a direct commission to the U.S. Army Reserves in the rank of Second Lieutenant on April 10, 2019. The decision to pursue a military career came as a result of my prayerfully discerning a clear call from God to join ministry, specifically through military chaplaincy during this time.”
Whitney Mathis, M. Div., 2020
“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
“It was the beginning stages of Regent's D.Min. program that really helped define my leadership gift and lay a foundation for what the Lord has done. It gave me the practical tools that I needed.”
Mark Batterson, D.Min., 2013 Lead Pastor of National Community Church in Washington, D.C.; New York Times Best-Selling Author
“I was so glad that I was able to study at the Regent University School of Divinity and earn my Master of Theological Studies (MTS). It has changed my perspective. After attending seminary, I have a different understanding of how to interpret God’s Word. Through the church history courses, I now see how important it is to know what kind of church Jesus is building today!”
Pastor Kevin Wu, Master of Theological Studies, 2016
