I loved hearing from speakers about what it looks like to do biblically objective journalism and getting hands on experience every day.

I loved the classes and found the seminar to be very helpful. I especially enjoyed being able to critique each other's writing and do the line by line editing together. The hands-on experience was unbeatable.

Meeting the mentors and working with them helped me immensely. Physically seeing how journalism works as a whole with people in the business was an incredible opportunity. I loved hearing and perfecting this craft of journalism in the name of the Lord.

The mid-career writing course expanded my horizons: It taught me to write in new ways, for different audiences, and on topics that need attention from a Christian worldview. Sometimes a well-meaning amateur tries to coach your batting swing or tennis serve and ends up disrupting your natural rhythm so badly that you can’t even hit the ball! The mid-career writing course had an opposite effect: coaching by experienced writers sharpened my skills and led to opportunities that I had never anticipated.

I had never quite experienced journalism or community in that way before.
Thank you so much for doing this! The best!

I was blown away by the quality of the program and the genuine helpfulness of all the faculty. They challenged us for sure, but I could tell they wanted to see us succeed, too. Also, the quality of the students. I was older than nearly all of the other students, but they were all so mature and genuine. I truly, truly loved getting to know several of them. The atmosphere of camaraderie and supporting each other was incredible.
