HELLO TO ALL!

We are turning the corner on our second year. It is amazing what the Lord has done with us as a community.

In our second year we expect a significant growth in campuses, students, and professors. We are starting a program with the Anglican Mission in the Americas. They want to have a test program and move toward a program that will be very kingdom, and yet sensitive to the Anglican tradition. This month, we will be introducing our Bachelor of Christian Studies Net. This will be an internet Bachelor Program that has been tested in South Africa and proven to maintain a level of community with the ability to reach every nook and cranny in the world. The Degree consists of two years on the internet for the Arts, and two years in a cohort internet connection with great interaction between Prof's and students in a Socratic method of learning. Keep your eyes open, as we will be releasing this very soon.

Our efforts in August will be concentrated on opening the door for new students from California and through the internet . We will hopefully reach thousands of people who would love to get the quality education you are experiencing live at our various campuses.

There is a direct connection with our school and advancing the Missio Dei. Imagine from a California perspective - we hope to have over 100 students graduating each year, with many moving into the market place to influence industry, and a significant number getting vocationally involved in full time Church Ministry. I look forward to the day when we are sending out 25 churches a year with strong teams, filled with their hope in the Lord to advance the Kingdom and bring redemption into a community. I can not cease in my excitement to be educating the Christian Community by live campuses, and thousands through the internet.

I am so happy for those who have already experienced change in their walk with the Lord and His people. You will be among those who will lead the church of the 21st century. Congratulations!

Would you join me, your Prof's, and other students in encouraging your friends and members of your family to consider going further in their pursuit of the Lord by entering TLC this September and perhaps some in January 2008?

When I visit you in the classroom I see your maturity and congratulate you on your next year as you become the “Upper” classmates - another first for your class.

I am proud of your courage and persistence!
