Italy | Study Abroad | Fall 2024
What you’ll study
Meet Apostle Paul – the ultimate adventurer! 🌍 A Roman citizen, he lived life on the edge, writing chunks of the New Testament, surviving crazy shipwrecks, and even dodging assassination attempts. But here’s the real twist: he went on some heart-pounding, risk-filled missions to plant churches. 🚀
Now, picture this: Emperor Nero, a total madman, was out to get Christ-followers! 😱 These two characters, Paul and Nero, they’re like the ultimate opposites – one showed us how to lead like a champ, the other… not so much.
We’re not just talking history here; we’re talking real-life lessons on leadership. 🤓 We’re gonna step into their world, follow in their footsteps, and dive into stories of other leaders who’ve left their mark on the world. 🚶♂️💼 This isn’t your typical history class; it’s an adventure in understanding how to lead – whether that means being a hero like Paul or avoiding the pitfalls like Nero. So, if you’re ready for an epic journey into the past, let’s do this!
Are you a young leader who’s all about personal and spiritual growth? Get ready for an epic journey! We’ve got an awesome semester abroad program in southern Italy that combines ministry and academic learning.
