"I grew up preaching in my grandfather's church. I knew the calling was there — but I didn't know how to develop it. When I found the Homiletics concentration at ABC, I found the place that would take my calling seriously. Dr. Palmer doesn't just teach you how to preach. He teaches you how to be a pastor — the kind your congregation can trust."
After graduation, Marcus plans to enter a pastoral residency program at a Little Rock church.

"I've been singing in church my whole life. But this program gave me something I didn't even know I needed — a theological vocabulary for what I was already doing. Now when I lead worship, I understand WHY I'm doing it. That changes everything about how you lead."
