When my Sunday school teacher said that to me, I was a 16-year-old girl who had left home due to traumatic circumstances and a toxic situation in mid-Missouri.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"629\" data-end=\"1064\">Although I was still living a lukewarm life, I had been taught to attend church, so I knew quite a lot about Jesus. But I didn\u2019t know the depths and beauty of having a relationship with Him. During this time, I started to pursue that, and I wanted Him to be more to me than just someone I read about\u2014more than the religion I\u2019d learned about as a child. I wanted to do more than go to church; I wanted to learn how to become the church.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1066\" data-end=\"1440\">Over the next couple of years, God began to show Himself to me. My home life was still difficult, but it was where He taught me to pray. He comforted me and drew me to Himself. I began growing in my relationship with God, but I\u2019d never dreamed of the bizarre idea of Christian college\u2014especially a small one in the middle of a city I\u2019d never visited or known anything about.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"\" data-start=\"1447\" data-end=\"1482\"><strong data-start=\"1451\" data-end=\"1482\">Choosing Faith Over Comfort<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1484\" data-end=\"1717\">I\u2019d always excelled in academics, and as a high school senior, I\u2019d been accepted to more than 20 colleges, including my dream schools. Turning them down for a small Christian school I\u2014nor any of my peers\u2014knew about was inconceivable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1719\" data-end=\"2234\">However, I reached a defining moment of my faith journey. I had decided I was no longer going to have one foot in the world and the other in faith. This didn\u2019t necessarily mean I had to go to a Christian college, but I didn\u2019t feel strong enough yet to go to a secular college. I was ready to have a firm walk with Christ as my Lord, and I wanted to limit my distractions while I was still a baby Christ follower. (Despite having believed in Him my whole life, I hadn\u2019t followed Him. Those are two different things.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2236\" data-end=\"2608\">Having my mind made up, I did a quick Google search of Christian colleges in my denomination. While Grace isn\u2019t my denomination, it popped up on Google, and for some reason, I was drawn to it. Upon browsing its website and social media platforms from the Twin Cities of Minnesota where I was living, somehow I knew this place\u2014ten hours away\u2014was where I was supposed to go.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2610\" data-end=\"2730\">I prayed, applied, got accepted, received confirmation from the Lord, and with that, I came to Michigan for move-in day.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"\" data-start=\"2737\" data-end=\"2777\"><strong data-start=\"2741\" data-end=\"2777\">Becoming Who God Called Me to Be<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2779\" data-end=\"3220\">I graduated in 2024, and I do not regret any of it. Grace was a safe haven for me in so many ways. I was surrounded by the most supportive staff and faculty during some personal challenges, and in my time there, they showed me that the experience of being a Grace student was about more than academia. It was about never having to walk through life alone, and about having a safe place to develop into the woman that God has called me to be.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3222\" data-end=\"3460\">Furthermore, I took classes that taught me how to better explore the Scriptures, which helped me in my passion to learn, apply, and teach them. Beyond the classroom, I heard, saw, or experienced something that pointed me to God every day.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3462\" data-end=\"3555\">Grace has made me a better person, and I will forever be thankful for the school I call home.<\/p>\n<div style=\"border-left: 5px solid #00677f; padding-left: 30px;\">\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3557\" data-end=\"3899\"><strong data-start=\"3561\" data-end=\"3592\">Author &#8211; Jessica Burgett (Payne) \u201924<\/strong> holds a <a href=\"https:\/\/gracechristian.edu\/academics\/programs\/bs-communication\/\">B.S. in Communication<\/a> and currently serves as a nanny and church nursery manager.
