The Lord has taught me the true power of the Gospel through the ICS Department. I learned that a genuine understanding of the Gospel of Jesus Christ restrains any individual from reserving the good news of the Messiah for themselves. I owe this growth in my life to my amazing professors, who not only taught me well, but walked alongside me as a young man.
