MA in Global Leadership Student Testimonials
"...you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." - Acts 1:8
Melissa Barrera
"Missions is not just a program within the church, but rather it is at the heart of the church. Wherever we go, we must share the Gospel ... God will use everything around you to make you grow and bring you to the point of total dependence on Him, taking you to a deeper level in your relationship. Let God shape you into His masterpiece."
Morgan Bishop
"The MAGL program truly helped me understand cultural intelligence and how to minister in a relevant way within my sphere of influence."
Tommy Derrick
"What I learned during my time at DBU was a shift in my philosophy of ministry, learning to see people, know people, walk with people, and love on people who may have a different upbringing or worldview ... Don't forget the opportunities that present themselves in more traditional contexts. Use your knowledge and gifts to help local churches transition to be more gospel-centered, kingdom-focused, and community-oriented churches."
Robert Ewing
"The combination of classes, readings, and materials has given me a lot of extra tools in my toolbelt to use when serving churches around the state."
Jessica Foster
"Going through the MAGL program equipped me for greater impact in ministry as I was given leadership, ministry, and spiritual tools that I will share with new leaders in Sao Paulo, as well as all of Brazil, South America, and wherever God leads me ... DBU is a global community, and seeing firsthand that the Kingdom of God encompasses all, and each country has strengthened my faith in Christ and my desire to play my part in the victory of Our King and His triumphal return in glory! The Lamb is worthy!"
William Horton
"The MAGL program helped me clarify my calling and understand how my ministry fits into the larger, global aim of the church in fulfilling the Great Commission ... There will be times when the work will be fun and rewarding and times when the work will be difficult. But knowing that it is all for the end goal of reaching the lost and making Jesus' name known around the world makes it worthy of our greatest efforts!"
Stephanie Johnson
"I have learned more about the love of Christ and living out my burden for the lost through the M.A. in Global Leadership program at DBU than ever before. I couldn't ask for a better institution to learn not only academics, but also how to live out servant leadership in my everyday life. I hope to take what I have learned and apply it to the mission field one day, whether that be internationally or right in my own neighborhood."
Abraao Lucas Jr.
"Remember, you are extremely blessed to have the opportunity to receive excellent preparation for ministry and are in a place that many people wish to be. Therefore, you have much responsibility in both your life and ministry."
Darbi Moore
"Do not limit the scope of Gospel change to your career. Find ways to apply daily theology and missiology lessons and use your gifts and strengths right where God has positioned you ... I am grateful to see God use the things I have learned in the program on both large and small scales and experience the beauty in living out the Great Commission."
Maddie Naisbiit
"I think the MAGL showed me how to embrace the depth and breadth of the church. We don't all look and sound the same, but when Jesus is at the center of all we do, everything else is secondary."
Kaitlin Warrington
"All of the professors and staff who led my classes were incredibly knowledgeable and wise in their fields, but they were also incredibly humble ... These professors modeled what humble and intentional partnership should and can look like in cross-cultural ministry and with interactions with the global church."
