Comments on UGST: When UGST opened, I took a step of faith and became a member of the first UGST class.  As a youth pastor I wondered how a seminary degree would benefit me.  After looking at the options, the MTS degree allowed the opportunity to customize my program to fit the direction of my ministry...if you are willing to apply it immediately to your context, it will multiply your ministry immensely.  The MTS program made me a better youth pastor, preacher, and equipped me for what God is doing in my life right now; most importantly it impacted me as a person.
