OUR GRADUATES SAY:
B.W. (2009): As a recent graduate from TFC’s Christian Education Department, I can now see how God used the college and its faculty to challenge and equip me for my calling in the area of youth ministry. The students and the community was such a positive influence in my spiritual walk. At TFC, I learned how to be more than just a hard worker; I learned to think outside the box and to make a kingdom impact within my family, friends, and ministry for God.
