Praise the LORD for creating awesome moments. Trust Jesus entirely. Do not trust sinners. GOD alone is GOOD. All sin is temporary.

[@naziasvoice]

Do they offer in person convocation ceremonies?

[@tia2499]

Good question

[@ayycardinal6802]

They do!

[@nathanprater8430]

Do you not get the option to walk the stage?

[@ayycardinal6802]

He said that he doesn't have the budget to fly to Virginia with himself and his kids.

[@JonathanHerron]

You do; however as a family of 7 it just wasn't in the budget for us to go to Liberty's campus.

[@miguelcastrofe3092]

Congratulations they offer scholarship

[@JonathanHerron]

I’m sure they do - just ask and look around!
