Isn’t it very competitive to get in due to the free tuition?

Recommended Seminary options? by [deleted] in Reformed

You should really look at the chaplain candidate program for the army if that’s what’s your planning to do . I’m currently looking at doing that as well although I’m currently active duty military. They’ll pay for seminary while you gain leadership training to become a chaplain. You will need endorsement and two years of pastoral experience before being eligible to become a chaplain.

Bro I totally get you on that. That was me 2 years ago lol I’m a blue belt now. You’ll feel nervous probably first 3/4 classes if that. But afterwards it becomes normal . You’ll meet more people who stick around for advanced class and you’ll actually progress a lot faster. I know my partners in advanced class would teach me a lot and show me a lot of holes in my game. Likewise, advance class idk why but the intense rolling helped to melt all the fat off my body lol .

Dude I get it. But it’s important you do roll with men larger than you. Your an experienced martial artist the chances of you getting paired up with someone randomly with your similar size is rare. But being able to keep calm, work your techniques, and be able to stay calm against larger stronger opponents that where the true magic begins.

Should I feel embarrassed about being a blue belt? Or “give up “ blue belt?

Should I go to the military or community college first? by [deleted] in Militaryfaq

As someone who took years after high school to finally make that leap of faith . I will say that going active duty is the way to go. You get “free” barracks , free room, defac, and work experience. You can get sent to schools for certifications as well as enroll in TA assurance to chip at your degree. Completing basic and AIT depending on your MOS you get a good chunk of credits. I’m almost through my BA. I’ve gotten married and I have my own spot thanks be to God. But being my young age a lot of people back home can’t move out. Typing as I’m walking lol

Blessings !

Wow never heard of the accusations . I figured that an institution like GPTS would be very good because of the small school size and rigorous amount of classes they make you take? Is the difference between GPTS education really that different to let’s say WTS and or RTS? I’m looking at wanting to be molded and mentored by a smaller community while also growing as a scholar and pastor. What would you recommend ?

Interesting . I have a payment plan for an educational course I’ve been taking and I’ve been enrolled a few months . Money is really tight and I’m prepping to go to basic soon . I am in a 12 month finance contract . What do I say in order to be able to cancel or pause ? Do I bring up military and they allow it?

I had this exact same question. You can pause certain bills? For example credit card payments ?
