The Host

Thank you to first-year student, Micah T. Muma, for writing today's blog.

Nick, a host on Preview Day

Last week was great as I got ready to be a host for the visitors on Preview Day. If a potential student wanted to be here to see what Shepherds College is like, Abby, Nick and I were their host.

At lunch on Preview Day, we all sat down and talked while we ate the great and amazing food Chef McCarthy made with his students. The sandwiches were filled with chicken salad mixed with grapes and crunchy celery. They tasted spectacular.

All I want to say to the students who want to head to Shepherds College is, “Be strong. Don’t let the world mess with you or give you a battle you can’t fight.

“In all, when you come here, I hope you enjoy it. You’ll learn a lot. If you don’t know much about God, be prepared to be taught about Him and the Bible. There are a lot of great things here. Faculty and staff will show you countless things and give you helpful advice for life. We are all hosts here, I guess!

“A Shepherds College education is life changing, and you can learn a whole lot. The Bible itself gives you a verse on it. In Proverbs 1:5 it says, ‘Wise people can also listen and learn; even smart people can find good advice in these words.’”

So anyone can learn, and we can all act smart and, as a result, we will all learn something new by the end of the day.

And our biggest HOST is God so don’t ever be shy or scared to ask God for anything. 

To all who may read this, may you have a blessed day, and to all the ones who want to visit here, don’t be shy or be afraid for God will help you.
