HBA is special to me because it feels like family and through the lives of caring faculty, staff, and students, I have learned to develop a growing relationship with Jesus. HBA’s caring and nurturing environment allows students, faculty, and staff to share a special bond. Well, my relationship with Jesus was genuine and I was overwhelmed with joy to have my whole family attend my baptism service following my graduation from HBA, and prior to starting college.Ī: I was raised in a local Buddhist family, where having a close family and a good education was important. I know that they thought that becoming a Christian was only a fad, and it would pass. My parents allowed me to attend church because I honored their request not to be baptized until I became an adult. Following wise counsel, I decided to honor my parent’s request and did not get baptized however, I continued to grow in my faith at HBA and at church. To my surprise, my parents prohibited me from being baptized. I wanted to express my new faith by getting baptized and becoming a member at a local Southern Baptist church. Q: How did you come to know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?Ī: In my fourth year at HBA, I became a Christian during a Religious Emphasis Week, now called Christian Emphasis Week. I enrolled as an eighth grader and this became the most important decision of my life because I was introduced to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. I chose HBA because my best friend was going there, and they had girls.
