Question and Answer

Today's email questions (and answers):

Yes, you can delay enrollment. Yes, you will need to update some documents next year. I am sorry that that makes you frustrated.

Yes, you can enroll in theological school. No, you cannot pursue a shorter degree because it is more convenient; if you want to follow career goal X, career goal X requires a different degree. Also, school will take time and energy. I understand you are busy. But school will take time, too. Degrees = working for something, and learning, and thinking, and all sorts of other neat stuff. If you want to enroll in theological school just to jump through a hoop, you are shortchanging yourself. Learning is fun. Hard, but fun.*

No, you cannot pursue an all-online program at our school. You cannot get a fully online theological degree that is also accredited. Thanks for asking, though. (Not being snarky...don't intend to come across that way...)

Sometimes, I think that my specialized ministry is email. That's legit.

*I didn't send the last couple of sentences. Obviously.
