Hello everyone,

I already have a degree and I’m finishing up an apprenticeship next month, so I’ll be getting my journeyman card. I mention that just to say I don’t need more schooling for my career, but I still have my GI Bill available.

My family and I have been getting more involved in our local church and small groups, and we’ve really been enjoying it. Lately I’ve been thinking about using the GI Bill to take some classes more for personal growth and a bit of accountability. I’ve noticed I tend to focus on things from my own perspective instead of stepping back and seeing the bigger picture.

So I guess I’m just looking for some insight. Do you think something like this would actually be beneficial? I feel like in person would be ideal, but realistically I’d have to do it online due to time.

I feel as I’m a natural leader and great at teaching people in the wild like at work or friends groups. When it comes to Jesus I feel like I’m at an elementary level and would love to have facts and confidence when I speak!

Appreciate any thoughts.
