What is a good college to get an education degree, and to be trained as a missionary? What hasn't worked well? What education classes benefit towards this plan?
I'm a sophomore in high school, and I'm trying to see what is out there, and what has worked and is recommended. I am trying to figure out what classes to take for PSEO that will benefit, and find the right path.
What was the place you went to, and how has God provided? What is some of your stories of easy and hard parts of being a missionary? What is some practical steps to grow and prepare?

As a non-religious person, should I exclude religiously affiliated colleges and universities from my college search?
Just a quick disclaimer: I do not mean to offend anyone in this post!! I respect your freedom of religion!! So, I do not follow any organized religion. I do not believe in a God or creationism, and I am not spiritual. I guess I can be categorized as a "nihilist." With that being said, I personally find myself uncomfortable when people talk about religion, or try to convince me to follow their religion. For religiously affiliated colleges, is this something that I should worry about. I know of some amazing colleges with amazing programs that I am interested in, but I am wary of the fact that the college is religiously affiliated. Any thoughts? #college #college-advice #college-bound #college-selection #religion
How do catholic doctors deal with abortions?
I previously asked a question regarding going into the medical field as a career. If I were to go into the medical field how would I handle a situation where a patient wants to have an abortion? I go to a Catholic high school and it is against my religious beliefs. Within my own understanding of the topic, I personally don't agree with it. So how would I being in a career I love, partake in something I don't love? #career #religion #healthcare

What can one do with a degree in religion or religious studies?
The last few semesters, I have taken a few courses outside of my major and found that I rather enjoy the religion and mythology based courses that my university offers. It has been brought up to me by my professors that a religion degree is offered, and while I have looked into it a bit, I was wondering if anyone knew what I could do with this degree upon graduation? Is there more than just a personal value to it? Would a minor be a better solution?Thank you! #undergrad #religion #college #religious-studies #spirituality #theology
