Seeds. is a weekly series of stories about the interesting and diverse people who study, work & visit the College. These stories of growth are created with the hope of sharing the work of God through personal testimonies of real people.

Jordan

"I'm preparing and I'm studying and I'm doing things to hopefully help people I haven't even met yet."

In this Seeds. video, Scott, a graduate from the Bible College, shares a glimpse of the unexpected turns God has taken him on since graduation. As you'll see, things don't always go as planned, but maybe there is reason in that.
