Theatre Major

Being a BA theatre major has been such a great experience. Regent really helps performers define who they are as actors and define who they are as Christians in the performing world. What I've learned most being here so far has been how to set up boundaries as a Christian performer and stand by them.

Continuing Education

Coming back to school after a two year break was very scary at first because I felt so far behind from all the people I graduated with, but God showed me that my timing here was perfect. And he has let me meet such wonderful people who have been where I'm at and they encouraged me. And once you're in the classes, you see that there are people of all ages and degrees and that age doesn't matter so much.

Christian Education

I use to say that I would never go to a Christian University because I thought they would be so strict and uptight. Also I didn't think a Christian University would be able to teach me theatre the way I needed it to be taught. Regent completely changed my perspective. They have a wonderful program and they really encourage us in our walk with God and show us how to co-exist in the world as a Christian.

My heart is so full

Can I say right now how much I love my school and the people God has placed in my path. They really are amazing people.

This past week has been one of those bittersweet weeks. God has just been so faithful. It wasn’t a bad week, but it was a difficult week. I came up against some spiritual warfare this week and I was doing some battle but I have come out on top, but am now very exhausted.

God has showed me so many things this week about myself, and where I’m going, what I’m doing here at Regent. It’s just been beautiful.

There is still some things that I’m dealing with but I know God will help me through it.

So tech starts tonight. I’m so excited to be working on a show again. Like really. I know I’m about to be super busy and super tired… but I’m so pumped…

I have missed theatre so much and I’m the sound op for As You Like It… I love Shakespeare!!!!! As most of you know. I’ve never worked sound before even in high school… it just wasn’t my thing… but I know I’m gonna learn a lot and that God is gonna help me get even closer to some people.

I wish I could explain to some people the love and joy I feel when I’m working on a show. Some people just don’t understand that driving force within me.. that passion that is so thick and so huge that sometimes I’m about to bust from the inside out, it gets so intense. I feel so full.. of life, and purpose, and… God just pours out of me in a new way, and sometimes I want to burst into tears because I feel so unworthy for God to choose me for this craft. To spread the art of theatre… its so overwhelming. But its so beautiful. I’m excited….if u didn’t get that.

To those of you who know what I’m talking about… where you are itching with need to perform or tech… and at the moment you cant do it… just hold on… God will open a door. I’ve been away from theatre for 2 years… and coming back… gives me such a better appreciation for it then I had before. YAY GOD!!!

Well that’s my shpeel. I love you all. God Bless!
