The excitement of starting a new chapter filled him with a renewed sense of purpose, accompanied by some anxiety and self-doubt. Quickly learning that he was not on this journey alone, the reassurance from community members at the SOT/Sem instilled a sense of peace in Coleman. After his first visit, he didn’t want to leave! He knew that Collegeville would be his second home.
Between classes and community commitments, Coleman is tutoring undergraduate and graduate students, helping them to develop good writing skills. He finds joy in watching a thirty-minute appointment alter a student’s perspective, and he recognizes that he himself is also learning from these dialogues. The SOT/Sem community is uniquely preparing Coleman for his life as a teacher of the Word.
By writing a new chapter and taking a leap of faith, Coleman is furthering the kingdom of God one lesson plan at a time.
