CommunicationTheology and Christian Leadership

Christina Romero ’23

I remember one time I heard: choose something you love because then you wouldn’t have to work a day in your life. It was at this time that I felt I should be studying something I loved and enjoyed learning during my pastime. All of the classes I’ve taken so far have given me a better perspective of where I stand in my faith and have helped me understand Biblical context.

Major: Theology and Christian Leadership

Minor: Communication

Why did you choose your major? 

I originally planned to major in Communications, but I felt as though I could be studying something I loved and enjoyed learning during my pass time. I remember one time I heard “Choose something you love because then you wouldn’t have to work a day in your life” and it was at this time that I felt God gave me the desire to pursue Theology and Christian Leadership -(I was also growing in my faith during this period). I knew I’d be taking a risk career-wise, but I’m trusting God’s plan.

Would you recommend it to a future student? Why?

If there is someone who wants to learn more about theology (the study of God) or is really seeking to deepen their faith I definitely recommend taking this as your major/minor. All the classes I’ve taken so far have given me a better perspective of where I stand in my faith and have helped me understand the Biblical context. 

What are your future plans? 

I would like to go to graduate school to receive my teaching degree and possibly become a professor. But my dream is to go on missions and tell people the gospel. At the end of the day, only God knows where He’ll take me. My ultimate goal in life is to do God’s will in my life, whatever that may be I don’t know at the moment, but I know He is guiding me. 

Are there any particular experiences — in or out of the classroom — that have helped you identify that path?

 I believe that if I’m with God I don’t have to worry about what my future will look like, at the end of the day I know God will take me where He wants me to be if I’m willing and I am.
