Yes, God values education. Paul was highly educated as well.

Don't let the decisions of men or religious organizations confuse you as to where God wants to lead YOU!

Great post!

Thank you bro!! This was very good!

I so appreciate you taking the time to write this and I feel like as if it was inspired for sure. Many are praying, I know that, and if you are interested at all or feel any unction, your prayer added to the mix would certainly be appreciated.

I know that you and your husband are in a "transition time" in your lives and ministry. God wants you to know that everything is going according to His plan and that you will soon receive His divine direction. I'm not trying to produce a false hope for I feel this strongly as I write! I am praying and you have my promise that I will continue to pray for you both and all others who seek that special place of God's will.
