Doctor of Ministry
Occupation: Pastor, First Baptist Church of Charleston

Because of Dr. Larry McDonald’s wisdom and leadership, I was impressed by North Greenville’s Doctor of Ministry program. The emphasis on discipleship, leadership, missions, and church health makes the degree intensely practical and calls every student to a deeper walk with Christ.
The program is rigorous, I had to get better glasses from all the reading, but I found every book and project valuable. I served as president for the South Carolina Baptist Convention as I completed the program, and writing a project thesis as a part of that journey taught me more than I could have imagined. I recommend Dr. McDonald and all the leaders who make this program so meaningful.
