Adam Driggers — Preparation
“I didn’t have mentor meetings until I was 50% to 70% done, then worked through the last modules while mentoring.”

“I didn’t have mentor meetings until I was 50% to 70% done, then worked through the last modules while mentoring.”
Adam Driggers, MABS Graduate
Adam deliberately prepared much of the course before beginning mentor sessions. This is strong evidence for Redemption’s preparation-first model. Students can adapt the pacing to their circumstances.
Hanna Seymour — Fit for busy life
“I just don’t think I ever thought I’d be able to fit it in while I had three kids under three and a half years old—but here we are.”

“I just don’t think I ever thought I’d be able to fit it in while I had three kids under three and a half years old—but here we are.”
Hanna Seymour, MABS Graduate
Hanna began the program while raising three very young children and already carrying significant work, ministry, and family responsibilities. Her experience directly addresses a common concern: whether graduate theological education can realistically fit into an already full adult life.
Adam Driggers — Devotional Time
“You’re doing the work anyway; you’re already putting the time in. If you join a seminary like Redemption, you’ll get a reward for it as well.”

“You’re doing the work anyway; you’re already putting the time in. If you join a seminary like Redemption, you’ll get a reward for it as well.”
Adam Driggers, MABS Graduate
Adam recalls advice from his executive pastor. He was already spending hours studying Scripture independently, so seminary gave structure, guidance, and a recognized academic outcome to work he was already motivated to do.
Hanna Seymour — Preparation & Self-Paced Learning
“I was most comfortable working through four of the seven units of a course before meeting with my mentor.”

“I was most comfortable working through four of the seven units of a course before meeting with my mentor.”
Hanna Seymour, MABS Graduate
Hanna found that completing much of the course preparation before the mentoring term allowed her to use the mentoring period for review, discussion, and reinforcement.
Terry Zeigler — Achievability
“To somebody like me who had no theology at all, I would say you can do it.”
Terry Zeigler, MABS Graduate | Kansas
“To somebody like me who had no theology at all, I would say you can do it.”
Terry Zeigler, MABS Graduate
Terry entered the program with no formal background in ministry or theology and initially found graduate theological study intimidating. However, once he started working through the preparation steps and meeting with mentors, he succeeded.

Hanna Seymour — Purpose (Biblical Training)
“I knew I wanted to pursue a seminary degree for greater training to help me as I’m writing books and Bible studies and teaching the Bible.”
Hanna Seymour, MABS Graduate | Tennessee
“I knew I wanted to pursue a seminary degree for greater training to help me as I’m writing books and Bible studies and teaching the Bible.”
Hanna Seymour, MABS Graduate
Hanna was already actively writing and teaching Scripture when she enrolled, so she was not pursuing the degree merely to enter ministry later. She saw the value of formal theological education for people already serving who want to become more careful, informed, and effective in that calling.
