Changing seasons can be invigorating, bringing new life, new energy. The crisp, cooling temperatures we are enjoy-ing this Fall 2011 semester at LeTourneau University follow a historically hot summer marked by an unprecedented string of days with triple-digit temperatures and drought that sparked wild fires and scarred acres across East Texas. Through it all, God protected the LETU campus. But the cooler weather is only one of many invigorating changes at LETU this fall. We welcome some new faces in leadership with the addition of our new Provost and Executive Vice President Dr. Phil Coyle and the shift in our reporting structure to a provost model of governance. Dr. Coyle will improve our communication and collabora-tion across such important campus functions as academic affairs, student affairs, enrollment management and infor-mation technology. While Phil and his wife, Judi, come to us from Tennessee, we also welcome two new deans this fall: Dr. Larry Frazier comes to us from North Carolina to head the School of Arts and Sciences, and Dr. Ron DeLap comes to us from Michigan to head the School of Engineering. They join our other deans Fred Ritchey in Aeronautical Science, Dr. Bob Wharton in Business, Dr. Wayne Jacobs in Education and

Dr. Carol Green in Graduate and Professional Studies to round out the Deans Council under the leadership of our new provost. Our new Center for Faith and Work Executive Director Bill Peel launches the center’s first on-campus initiative this fall called Breakfast With Fred Leadership Institute, which brings mento rs to campus to discuss practical integration of faith and work. The integration of faith and work is a hallmark of our strategic plan, as is a commitment to being a university of global influence. In light of that, we have established our new Office for Global Initiatives and Center for Global Service Learning. Dr. Robert Hudson has transitioned into the role as its vice president to oversee our intentional focus on expanding LETU’s global influence, through recruitment and relation-ships with governmental organizations abroad. While these many changes are invigorating and bring fresh energy to LETU, our commitment to our core values is steadfast as we prepare the next generation of graduates to be of Christ-like character and see their life’s work as a holy calling with eternal significance.

A focused, intentional strategic planning process to define the future of LETU included input from across all constituency

groups and resulted in a strategic vision for 2015. Defining the programs and initiatives where God was already at work and seeking

to join Him in that work, LeTourneau Uni-versity President Dr. Dale A. Lunsford

led the university to develop a strategic plan result-

ing in the

following five pillars, or commitments, that serve as strategic support for the university’s initiatives into the future. “Our vision is for LeTourneau Univer-sity to take a leadership role in claiming every workplace in every nation for Jesus Christ,” Lunsford said. “We seek to equip our graduates to go into their workplaces with professional competence, Christ-like character, and God’s vision guiding them to see their work as a holy calling with eternal significance. We want to see Christ through our graduates making an

impact on eternity.”

We are committed to educate a new generation of leaders who effectively integrate their Christian faith and professional calling.

“We are ambassadors for Christ; certain that God is appealing through us...”

—2 Corinthians 5:20

Since its founding, God has enabled LeTourneau University to uniquely answer the Great Commis-sion by equipping students to bring the Good News of Jesus Christ into a variety of workplaces and pro-fessional ministries. Today’s workplace is a mission field of particular importance. Councils of external professionals in a variety of fields will advise LETU’s academic schools on integrating faith and work within specific professions. Enhanced relationships with church organizations, schools and home-school organizations will broaden our impact. By establishing a new Center for Faith and Work, LETU creates opportunities for leadership development in faith integration in the workplace.

We are committed to meet the changing needs of students who seek a Christ-centered residential university education.

“Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—His good, pleasing, and perfect will.”

—Romans 12:2

The Longview campus of LeTourneau University provides a unique environment for intellectual, emotional, physical and spiritual growth during early adulthood for residential students seeking a Christ-centered university. We recognize the need for continuous improvement in our curricular, co-curricular and administrative programs to be ef-fective and sustainable and to impact the culture in a world of dramatic change. Expanded ethnic diver-sity, student success rates, endowed scholarships, capital improvements and discipleship programs for students will result from intentional programs that will also promote a stronger and more sustain-able financial model for the Longview campus.

We are committed to achieve excellence as a Christ-centered university of excep-tional professional programs.

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men... it is the Lord Christ you are serving.”

—Colossians 3:23-24

LeTourneau University is unique in the world of Christian higher education for its historic focus on preparing undergraduates for professional careers, especially in the technical professions. LETU’s non-traditional academic programs have expanded educational opportunities of many thousands of business and education professionals, both in undergraduate and graduate studies. LEAP and GAPS initiatives have established LETU as a national leader in the delivery of Christ-centered higher education to adult, non-residential students. That leadership will grow with new academic programs at both undergraduate and graduate levels in each academic school, with focus on professional preparation in areas of strategic opportunity, such as healthcare. Online delivery, dual credit options and collaboration between residential and non-residential programs will expand.

We are committed to be a university of global influence.

“The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it.”

—Psalm 24:1 Future leaders in all professions will require a global perspective. A culture of hands-on learning and ingenuity in combination with high ability fac-ulty, staff and students allows us to create unique service-learning experiences that address global problems and social injustices in a manner that brings glory to God. Excellent academic programs create an opportunity to recruit international students to study at LETU and return to workplaces around the world with a Christian worldview. Through the new Center for Global Service Learn-ing, LETU is expanding student exchange relation-ships with Christian universities in each region of the world and promoting study abroad programs for students and international travel opportunities for faculty.

We are committed to develop the capabilities, structure, and resources to achieve our vision.

“Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided for you.”

—Matthew 6:33

God’s provision continually blesses LETU as we seek Him first in all our endeavors to make an impact for Christ in every workplace in every nation. It all begins with a commitment to prayer, a heart of thanksgiving for His vision and confidence that He who began the good work at LETU will be faithful to complete it by providing for our needs. The growth of funding for operations, endowments and capital needs is integral to the growth of the university. By de-fending our independence to operate as a Christ-centered university, we strengthen our ability to provide programs of excel-lence delivered by faculty known for Christian character and competence. Revising LETU’s organizational struc-ture enables us to be more effective in implementing the strategic vision as we empower leadership to continually learn and improve the university’s perfor-mance. Initiatives include a thorough review of faculty workloads to support teaching and research effectiveness, an enhanced capability to meet the pace of changing needs for advancing technology, a marketing initiative to build the LETU brand to attract students in both tradi-tional and non-traditional programs and development of a successful strategy for specifically recruiting Texas residents.

Meet LETU's New Provost

Photographed by Randy Mallory, Tom Barnard and Janet Ragland


LeTourneau University’s new Provost and Executive Vice President Dr. Philip A. Coyle assumed his role on July 1 follow-ing a national search, but, he was actively

involved in the recruitment of two new academic deans last spring. As the university’s new chief academic officer and executive vice president, Coyle has execu-tive level responsibilities for planning, develop-ment and administration of the academic mission of the university. Coyle provides leadership to achieve initiatives of the university’s strategic plan and oversees the recruitment, development and performance of deans, academic administrators, faculty in the university’s six schools, and adminis-trators over accreditation, information technology, global initiatives, enrollment services, and student services. Coyle reports directly to Dr. Lunsford and serves as the chief executive officer in the presi-dent’s absence. Coyle earned his Ph.D. in psychology and counseling from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, where he chaired the counseling and psychology department for 12 years and added new programs with significant growth in enroll-ment. He served as the Chief Academic Officer at Richmont Graduate University in Chattanooga,

Tenn., and Atlanta, Ga., for nine years, prior to joining LeTourneau. He also taught at William Carey College School of Nursing in New Orleans, La. As a licensed marriage and family therapist, Coyle has a record of accomplishment in pasto-ral counseling, family counseling, and academic research in psychology. He also holds Doctor of Education in marriage and family therapy and two master’s degrees, one in religious education and one in marriage and family therapy from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. His under-graduate degree is in psychology from Memphis State University. Coyle was a commissioned Air Force officer, at-tending officer training school at Medina Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, and jet pilot school at Columbus Air Force Base in Mississippi. He served on staff at two churches, directed several large human services programs, and has served as a licensed counselor for 25 years. Coyle sat down for an interview with NOW as the Fall semester got under way.

What attracted you to LeTourneau University?

I was motivated by LeTourneau’s strategic vision regarding Every Workplace—Every Nation. I was impressed with our president’s leadership and per-sonal character. I was excited about the diversity of the degree programs including strong programs in fields such as engineering and aviation where inte-gration of Christian faith and practice is a challenge and a great opportunity. I was excited about the areas of needed improvement and believed I could effectively join those efforts and make a difference. At LETU, God has gathered an amazing group of faculty, administrators, trustees, staff, students, and alumni, all prepared with an intentional mis-sion and a rich tradition. I am honored to be among the many who embrace the LeTourneau vision. I thank God and the LeTourneau community for this invitation to contribute in the role of provost. I am honored to serve Dr. Lunsford in his clear vision to equip students for a meaningful life of service across the world.

Meet LETU's New Provost Dr. Philip A. Coyle


How have your past experiences prepared you for leader-ship at LETU?

One of the real discovered joys in a Christian’s life is that God wastes nothing as long as you do not discount the suf-ferings or the blessings. I never aspired to be a professor, my doctoral committee chairman had the vision for me. I never aspired to be a department chairman, my dean had the vision for me. I never aspired to be a dean, my univer-sity provost and president had the vision for me. I never aspired to be provost, a former student had the vision for me. I did, however, aspire to be a Christian psychologist, and after 40,000 hours of face-to-face counseling, I was inspired to seek the joint efforts of gifted educators at LeTourneau to produce graduates of Christ-like character and ingenuity.

What is your philosophy of work/life balance?

I love my work, and I love my life. I like to say my life space is bigger than my work space, although I am not so sure that is true. I have a wonderful wife of 30 years. Judi and I have been together since age 13—you know, “going steady,” and exchanging rings and such. We have two sons: Chris, 27, and Andrew, 23. Both are single; so LeTourneau girls give us a call. I tend to be all in—meaning that when I am attending to something like work, or neighborhood renewal, or research, or teaching— then that is my life in that moment. I love the moment of being lost in something important. My wife keeps me relatively balanced. I enjoy many things: evenings out with friends, renovation projects, college football, devotional life, almost anything outdoors, hearing of my boys’ life experiences. I have two great broth-ers and two lovely parents. I am never bored. My philoso-phy of life-work balance is to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever. This includes finding joy in your work and seeing work as worship.

Share something about your faith that is currently rel-evant in your daily work at LeTourneau as Provost.

These words of Martin Luther are appealing: “The Christian community is not an ideal we have to realize, but rather a reality created by God in Christ in which we may participate.” An abiding philosophy is that LeTourneau was created in God’s providence, therefore we students, staff, faculty and administrators have been invited to participate in a reality of God’s design. We then should remember the words of Paul: “That you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind, working side by side for the faith of the Gospel.” We are called to unity though not for the sake of unity, but for the sake of creative advancement of God’s good work among us. So, every voice should be valued, a collaborative spirit should permeate every corridor of the university, and each person must experience a genuine sense of influence toward fulfilling our collective mission. LeTourneau University is a Christian University that emphasizes faith and work, faith and learning; what are some of your thoughts about this position?

We recognize our foundation as a university is special revelation, the Word of God, the Bible. Here we become acquainted with the Living Word, the Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible is our rule of faith and practice. The Holy Spirit is Christ within us who continues to reveal God’s will within our lives. We recognize that we serve a God who has spo-ken. We therefore understand our academic discourse in the context of revealed truth not simply discovered truth. Hence, for a Christian, integration of faith and learning is a central aspect of our call and world-view. Matthew 4:4 states, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.” From this perspective, even the word integration loses its bifurcated

edges because our faculty and students are not charged with joining together two disparate sources of truth. Instead they are asked to recognize that all truth is from God. As we gain knowledge within a discipline we are also gaining revealed glimpses into the mind of God. He is fully integrated into all. Discovered truth may lead to revealed truth depending upon the hearts of the student and teach-er. This remains a primary objective and distinctive of the LeTourneau academic community. We must remain atten-tive and intentional to integration of faith and learning.

What goals have you set to accomplish in your first year?

First, I believe worship is central to our shared purpose as a Christian university. Second, outstanding teaching and scholarship are primary. Third, the professor-student re-lationship is the central institution for significant transfor-mation of a student’s life into meaningful service. Though I am new to LeTourneau University, at this point I have identified six distinctive areas of focus of my relationships here. I believe these areas of strategic influence are opportunities for relational and institutional advancement. They represent significant promise for improvements in students’ character and learning. They all fit with the Mission and the Strategic Plan of the university and include:

• Integrating faith and learning• Developing high-impact, high-value professional

degree programs and related initiatives• Shaping a holistic personality of Christian influence

within LETU’s residential community• Advancing a student, staff, faculty and administrative

culture of creative collaboration and influence• Expanding focus on student learning outcomes• Creating meaningful, long-standing relationships with

our local and global communities

Is there anything else on your mind that you’d like to share?

LeTourneau is blessed to be placed in the southern district of Longview. The median income for households in this section of town is far below $33,858, which is the median income for Longview households. While 16% of the population of Longview is below the poverty line, on this south side of town, the percentage of those living in poverty is far larger. LETU is blessed to have this call of Christian service on a daily basis; unfortunately, we Chris-tians need such reminders. Our neighborhood is a reminder of Micah’s words: “He has shown you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?” (Micah 6:8). Meaningful engagements with our local community are essential to a Christian university. Universities like LeTourneau and Christian higher edu-cation at large must establish a Christian presence locally and around the globe as a precursor to evangelism for the purpose of pre-evangelism. When students are meaning-fully engaged and connected through service to others, they see real changes in people’s lives. Those students are changed. Those students gain a vision of being a global Christian. All humans are called by God to exercise their gifts of service to others through specific roles. Christian-ity is more than intellectual. We would hope students’ experiences in meaningful local and global services would become their ethos, their way of life. n



It’s not easy being 1,200 miles away when your dad is struggling with cancer. Dr. Larry J. Frazier was only slightly relieved as he hung up the phone in his Murfreesboro, N.C., home after talking to

his dad who had played such an influential role in his life. His dad had worked long hours as a successful plumber in their hometown of White Oak, Texas, and was within reach of achieving his goal to become a teacher through LeTourneau University’s School of Education when he was diagnosed. Frazier’s dad had a new outlook on life, but also had unwittingly influenced Frazier’s next career move as a Christian educator. “As my dad told me about his experiences at LeTourneau, his class professors, the students and how they took care of him — they really helped him through a tough time,” Frazier said. “His dream had always been to go to college and earn his teaching certification. With their help, he was achieving that goal. When someone treats your family well, it really makes an impression on you.” The 43-year-old religion professor admits that influenced his decision when he considered the offer to become LETU’s new dean of arts and sciences. But LeTourneau was not on Frazier’s educational radar when he was a teenager growing up in East Texas. His route followed a Baptist bent as he gradu-ated salutatorian from East Texas Baptist University, double majoring in Christian Ministry and Behavioral Sciences. He then earned a Master of Arts in Theol-ogy from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth and earned his Ph.D. in Religion from Baylor University in Waco. For the past 10 years, he has taught at Chowan University, a Christian school in North Carolina founded by Baptist families in 1848. Today, Frazier is fully dedicated to his new role as dean at LETU. “I want folks in East Texas to say, ‘LeTourneau is our school,’” he said. “It’s really remarkable that we have this high-quality, Christian university whose name has worldwide recognition, right here in our own backyard in East Texas. “In the School of Arts and Sciences, LETU students studying biology have had great success getting ad-

mitted to some of the top medical schools,” Frazier said. “Welch grants have provided research opportunities for many of our chemistry and physics students, which helps them get into graduate programs because they are already experienced in research activities. Our computer science programs, with concentrations in game development and network security, are having great success placing students in the workplace and in graduate schools. And we have a great program in biblical studies with a top-notch faculty.” Frazier likes to emphasize the strengths a liberal arts education can offer, even in a class of engineers . “Every student at LETU takes classes in general education from the School of Arts and Sciences, so we serve the entire uni-versity in that way,” Frazier said. “The heart of the university experience is cultivated by the arts and sciences. That’s the universal in university — the essential skills of read-ing, writing, thinking and communicating. The learning that happens in classes like religion, history and English shapes all of our students. “The integration of faith and work is an emphasis across the campus, and students begin that process their freshman year,” he said. “All students find that initial contact in their first class, then take those skills to their majors and fine-tune them. What sorts of scientists, computer programmers, ministers, or educators are we producing? What sorts of engineers or pilots? Our classes are where the identity of a university is shaped.” Frazier also emphasizes the value of service op-portunities that LETU encourages. “Service opportunities are the perfect labora-tory for applying what you’ve learned in class, while you’re also realizing, ‘It’s not all about me.’ It’s about making a difference in the world and be-ing a Christian witness,” Frazier said. “I tell kids to

start saving right now, and ask family members and church friends to help sponsor you, because there’s no experience out there where you’re going to get this kind of return than from some sort of mission or service, especially if it gets you into a culture that’s different from yours.” Frazier wore a variety of hats as he worked at Chowan, going from a department chair, to an as-sistant dean, to dean, and then associate provost (with some NCAA duties thrown in along the way). Through his service there, he learned what made a university run, but said all of these jobs were tied to something he learned early on in college —the value of using your talents wisely. “Certain words have guided me through my ca-reer, and one of those words is Stewardship,” Frazier said. “Stewardship was an idea communicated to me way back, to be the wisest steward of the abilities

and gifts you have been given.” As new opportunities came his way, if he ever doubted his odds of success in new roles, he would focus on the gifts he had to offer and where God had placed him. “What kept me motivated was trust-ing God for the abilities He gave me and developing them as best I could and then letting God worry about where they would take me down the road,” he said. It’s the same concept he hopes to teach students now. “College is all about the person you become,” Fra-zier said. “It’s not just about a job you get, because jobs will change. It’s about what kind of person will you turn out to be? At a school like LeTourneau, you learn that God has gifted you in a special way, and let’s find out what that is and develop it.” n


The phone rang. It was the search agency calling again. Dr. Ron DeLap wondered why the agency he had dealt with months earlier was still calling him to come to Texas.

Yes, the retired Air Force major had worked as a design engineer at the National Security Agency and had been recognized for his expertise in space-based radar systems. He had even taught some of the nation’s future standouts at the graduate level during his tour as an as-sociate professor and department chair at the Air Force Institute of Technology at Wright-Patterson AFB in Ohio.

But now, with his three children grown, he and his wife of more than 35 years, Marie, were quite comfort-ably settled in their three-story, old Victorian-style home in Michigan, located close to DeLap’s office as the dean of engineering at Lake Superior State University. Actually, Ron was still a little frustrated with himself for prema-turely acting on a rumor that the small university in Sault Sainte Marie, Mich., was on the brink of merging with a larger one — thus prompting his search for employment elsewhere. However, in the end, Dr. DeLap thought perhaps the

Dr. Ron DeLapDEAN OF ENGINEERING

phone call he received that crisp April evening, after declining an interview with LeTourneau University in Janu-ary, might have something to do with a Bible story he had been reading in 1 Samuel. It was about the priest who kept inquiring of an absent shepherd boy who was supposed to be anointed as king. “So many things contributed to my coming here,” DeLap said about his new role as dean of engineering at LeTourneau University. “We felt obvious direction from the Lord.” He said the search agency told him they had interviewed everybody else, but that several at LeTourneau had been praying about it and felt led to ask him to interview. “I was conflicted,” he said. “I really did love my job, but I felt God was clearly saying that these are godly men at LeTourneau. If they feel God wants you there, you’d better go and check it out.” After the interview and a full week of devoted prayer, the DeLaps were certain of their next move. From the moment they committed, it was full-steam ahead. “When I finally sat down at my computer to accept the LETU Presi-dent’s offer, the second after I sent the e-mail to accept this job, a mes-sage popped up on my screen from a missionary friend in Haiti whom I hadn’t talked to in six months,” DeLap said. “She told me she had only sent

this e-mail to a couple of people, but the subject line read: Go Forth with Confidence. “It’s pretty neat the way God affirms things,” DeLap said, adding that their home sold immediately in a rather depressed housing market. “You just can’t deny the Lord’s hand in this move. It’s really humbling to me to have the Lord take such an interest in what we do.” DeLap is proud to serve in the profession he loves. “Engineers have a great life,” he said. “In my opinion, it’s one of the best professions — right behind teaching. Teaching is the most rewarding position I’ve ever held. There’s nothing like watching a student’s expression

change when that light goes on in their mind when they get a concept you are teaching them. But right behind that is engineering. Combining your creative abilities with mathematical logic opens up such a broad field that there are always new things to do and learn.” Good problem solvers are in great demand and will have a big impact on the future, DeLap said. “These engineering students are the next generation of people who are going to design things that will make a big contribution to society, especially when they’re Christians,” he said. “We need more Christian engineers out there sharing the gospel.” DeLap cites Proverbs 22:29, which reads, Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will serve before kings; he will not serve before mere men. “Good engineers rise to the top of their profession,” DeLap said. “It’s wonderful when Christian engineers make discoveries and are willing to share their faith publicly.” DeLap said his motivation is based on both excellence and service as he seeks to live by the verse to do every-thing unto the Lord. “You don’t want to do a second-class job. The Lord is watching you. And you want to do your best all the time,” he said. The engineering field itself presents unique opportu-nities for students to travel the world as both ministers and workers, Delap said. He cited some of the projects LETU students have already worked on in prosthetics, wheelchair design research, small-farm irrigation, and he also cited opportunities with outside organizations such as a group called Engineers Without Borders, which installs water systems in Africa. “I want students to be passionate about what they do,” he said. “I want them to be better. I want LeTourneau graduates to stand out among other engi-neers. When they are working on a project, I want those other engineers to come to my LeTourneau graduates and say, ‘How do we do this?’ because those LeTourneau graduates know how to make things, and they know how to make things that work. “LeTourneau’s program is known nationally as an outstanding engineering program,” DeLap said. “Now that I have met and worked with the faculty and staff, I understand why! To be allowed to lead a program like this, in some ways, is almost a little overwhelming. But I’m certain God has picked me to be here, and I am rely-ing on Him to guide me and give me vision for what He wants to do with this program. Anything good we do can only be by God’s design and for His glory.” n


K atie loves Sunday mornings, and why not? She loves God. Her first day of the week brings church . . . encouragement, learning and ca-maraderie with fellow believers. Then comes

Monday—and Tuesday through Friday. Those mornings, Katie routinely stuffs her faith in a box, applies her work face and heads to the office. If any part of Katie’s weekly attitude shift sounds familiar, welcome all the more to LeTourneau Univer-sity’s new Center for Faith and Work. Welcome to a fresh new program to help Katie, and students at LETU and Christians around the globe encounter God in their daily work. Executive Director Bill Peel, a man who has spent years helping people find God in the corporate world and writing about it, is eager to help all Christians see that even the factory floor is holy ground. “Our daily work matters to God,” Peel said. “That’s good news since we spend most of our time there. Ephesians 2:10 says we were designed for good works—effort, business, enterprise—things which He purposed for us to accomplish. Good work, well done, brings glory to God. Whether you assemble earthmoving machines, run a business, teach first-graders or do missions in a developing country—what you do is packed with God’s purpose and meaning.” The purpose of the Center for Faith and Work is a piece of the university’s five-pillar strategic plan to help its students and graduates make serving Christ their career goal—whatever the career—in every workplace in every nation. And like those lifetime career decisions, options abound. For starters, Peel sees to it that believ-ing men and women can grow in taking their faith to work. Through classes, workshops, consulting, mentor-ing, events and through online resources at

www.centerforfaithandwork.com, the Center for Faith and Work serves:

Students by helping them define their calling, discover the value of the work God has designed them to do, and develop a vision for following Christ at work. Churches and pastors by helping them launch min-istries within the church that equip men and women to take their faith to work and influence both their workplace and their co-workers for Christ. Employees and employers by connecting them to other followers of Christ in their line of work and by providing resources to help them develop both their faith and workplace wisdom.

“For every person who reflexively slices Sunday from the rest of the work, it’s time to grasp that good business is God’s business and smart workplace strategies are replete with biblical principles,” Peel said. “From human relations to annual reports, from login to overtime, we’re handing Christians in the workplace a new set of glasses.” Peel came to LETU in January 2011 as an author and ministry leader with more than 25 years helping people discover life callings, sharpen work skills and become spiritually influential at work. The ministry he founded in Dallas—a city known for business—emphasized work-place discipleship, evangelism and leadership develop-ment, with original resources and initiatives to equip and empower people to know how their work fits into God’s plan. Peel has served on the leadership team of churches in Fort Worth, Tyler and Dallas, helping members understand how to live out their faith Monday through Saturday.

Waiting for his flight to board at East Texas Regional Airport on a cool, crisp Saturday morning, Dr. Robert W. Hudson looks over his itinerary: Longview to Dallas to Chicago

to New Delhi. During this trip to India, Hudson is repre-senting LeTourneau University in New Delhi, Chennai and Mumbai with the goal to attract international students. This international trip is the first of many he will take as LETU’s new vice president for the Office for Global Initia-tives, but he is an experienced traveler and is confident in God’s plan to expand the university’s relationships globally. LeTourneau University’s Every Workplace in Every Nation strategic plan identifies five pillars that give sup-port for the direction of the university over the next few years. One of these commitments is to “be a university of global influence.” To that end, Dr. Dale A. Lunsford an-nounced the creation of the Office for Global Initiatives, which was established July 1, 2011. Lunsford appointed Hudson to the new cabinet-level position as its vice president charged with leading all global initiatives for the university. Hudson was the perfect choice to lead this new initia-tive. Entering his 18th year of service at LeTourneau, Hudson had served as the vice president for the School of Graduate and Professional Studies for 11 years fol-lowed by six years as chief academic officer. He knows LeTourneau. And he knows international culture. Hudson grew up as the son of missionaries in the Ma-yan villages of Guatemala, Central America, and later, he and his wife, Betty, served as missionaries in Costa Rica where he taught and served in the administration at a Nazarene Seminary. He has traveled extensively through-out Central America and Europe, as well as recent trips to China, Africa, Korea, Mexico and India. In making the announcement, Lunsford stated that Hudson’s global experience has given him a unique perspective on global education and the significant role

that Christian higher education can play in impacting the world for Christ. Even in Hudson’s previous role as LETU’s chief academic officer, he led the establishment of the Office of International Studies to help coordinate various international initiatives for international student recruit-ing and support. Hudson continues to oversee this area in his new role, currently seeking to fill a key position for an associate vice president for International Admissions and Enrollment Services. That person will lead recruiting and retention efforts for all international students, both at the undergraduate and graduate levels, and will estab-lish the necessary infrastructure for international student success. In attracting diverse students from across the globe, LETU seeks to promote cross-cultural understand-ing on the campus and in the local community. “Our hands-on learning culture and excellent academic programs are a drawing card for recruiting international students of diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds to study here and then have them return to work places all over the world with their Christian worldview,” Hudson said. “Being a university of global influence also means expanding the curriculum to promote the study of global topics and languages, study abroad programs and ex-panding our exchange relationships with other Christian universities worldwide,” Hudson said. “Future leaders in the 21st century will require a global perspective across all professions,” Hudson said. “We want to increase the opportunities for LETU students to study abroad, participate in international in-ternships, experience cultural immersion and experience collaborative service opportunities in their educational programs." In January, Hudson will oversee a new Center for Global Service Learning, under the direction of Dr. Kelly Lieben-good. The mission of the new center is to connect faculty and students with opportunities to demonstrate God’s redemptive love in solving global problems and social

injustices. Hudson cited several of the projects cur-rently under way at LETU that will fit under the global initiatives umbrella including: · Small-plot irrigation project that engineering students have developed to help farmers in developing countries be able to draw water from the ground to grow food. · A wheelchair research project that enables students to do outcomes research on pediatric wheelchairs being used at an orphanage in Kenya. The research will lead to improvements in wheelchair design that can improve functionality on a global scale. · Visual literacy project that researches how people in a remote village in Kenya translate visual two-dimensional drawings and representations into a three-dimensional world. · Bible translation project that enables students to assist a group in Nigeria that seeks to enable villagers in areas of the world to have the Word written in their own language. “Unique service-learning experiences at LETU are already helping students address global problems and social injustice in a way that glorifies Christ,” Hudson said. “This new center will help us to identify and expand on that.” All of these intentional global initiatives together will expand the international scope of the university as it attracts a more ethni-cally diverse student body, expands study abroad experiences for students and pro-motes international professional development and scholarship opportunities for faculty, and by design, they will create a university without borders. n

It was October 1989 and one of the best games of his life. Standing in his San Jose State uniform on the 50-yard-line in the Orange Bowl, mid-game against the University of Miami, Kelly Liebengood questioned

whether football delivered all that it promised for his life. Despite the scoreboard and screaming fans, he was struck with a thought that was bigger than the play at hand, more pivotal than his life as an athlete: “Really? This is what life is all about? Why am I really here?” The Miami Hurricanes went on to win the national champi-onship that year. Liebengood went on to seek and find the answer. Two years later, he became a Christian. Suddenly, it all made sense. “My whole world just came together,” Liebengood said. “I found so much meaning and purpose when I was learning about, talking about, worshipping, Jesus.” After graduation, Liebengood traveled to Chile, where he worked in the college ministry at the University of Concepción and met his wife, Marietta. They have since served as campus ministers at the University of Kansas and as missionaries with United World Mission in Costa Rica and Scotland, where Liebengood earned his Ph.D. in New Testmanent at the University of St. Andrews. “I didn’t know about Jesus until I was 21, so I wanted to make sure college students in Chile, or wherever, could hear about the Gospel,” Liebengood said. “In fact, my whole Christian life I’ve been involved with college students. It’s the common thread that brings the whole thing together. I think it’s a really special age.” Liebengood’s area of biblical expertise centers upon the General Epistles (1-2 Peter, James, Jude, 1-3 John), particularly the book of 1 Peter. He currently serves on the international steering committee for the General Epistles section of the Society of Biblical Literature (SBL), through which he helps to shape questions scholars are asking about these books. His specific areas of research interest include the way in which the Old Testament is used by the New Testament authors, the theology of Christian suffering and the interface between Christian theology, work, economics and vocation. “Researching what the General Epistles have to say about work stimulated me to think more about how we use our resources and how we can leverage those resources for serving people in other places who don’t have them,” Liebengood said. In 2009, he co-edited a book titled Engaging Econom-ics: New Testament Scenarios and Early Christian Recep-

tion. It is an analysis of what the New Testament teaches Christians to do with their possessions and resources, as well as how the early church understood and lived out these teachings. Liebengood connects his classroom teaching with this concept, particularly in his Honors course covering the topics of poverty, wealth and Christian discipleship. Yet, he was still searching – this time, for more ways to make an impact through his interests. “I’d been praying about how I could be more involved in connecting the resources I have or I’m a part of with places where they don’t have these resources or where there are injustices,” Liebengood said. Just an opportunity presented itself this year, as Liebengood was asked to serve as the director of LeTourneau University’s new Center for Global Service Learning beginning in January 2012. “That’s one of the major goals of the center, to con-nect resources that we have at LeTourneau – the exper-tise, the research we’re doing to meet needs and solve problems all over the world – in particular with places that don’t have these resources,” Liebengood said. His work will expound on the history of LeTourneau’s hands-on learning to meet needs around the world. “What we’re trying to do is match professors and their research interests with students who can help them with their research and then connect them with people on the ground in places all over the world who have needs that can be met through this research,” Liebengood said. Liebengood, a global traveler who has spent time in Egypt and Rome, in addition to his work in South America and Scotland, shares his passion for travel and culture with his students. As part of his Physical Settings of the Bible course, he led students to Greece last year and will take a group to Israel in December to help enrich their faith with a study of historical Christian culture in a modern, global context. “It motivates me to help shape students’ overall vision of who God is and what their place in God’s world is – to help broaden their understanding of how whatever their career choice is will fit in with God’s mission in this world,” Liebengood said. “My world was turned upside down when I became a Christian at a university. It made me rethink everything about what I think life is, about what I’m here on this earth for. And because of that, I’m hoping that in some way God uses me to do the same kind of thing in other peoples’ lives.” n

Ethiopia is a place of rich heritage, physical beauty and unsettling human suffering. It is poor even by African standards. Per capita annual income is only $100. Three of every four Ethiopians live on less than $1 per day. Nearly 5 million orphaned chil-dren live there, and less than a third of them have the privilege of attending school. It is also a place ravaged by malnutrition and AIDS. Malaria and polio are common. Basic medical care is unavailable to most of the population. Recently, a team of Longview physicians traveled to Ethiopia to provide medical and dental care in the small village of Bishanjilba. Dr. John Ross, Dr. Rodney Henry, and Dr. Mark Wallis saw more than 700 patients in just over three days. Others on the team supported these physicians by administering an eyeglass clinic, a pharmacy and a wound care clinic. With every hug and smile, these team mem-bers demonstrated God’s love to those patients who traveled difficult mountain roads to wait hours under shade trees to see a doctor. At the core of a LeTourneau University education is the truth that we are all valuable in God’s King-dom. Yes, pastors, evangelists, and other “full time ministry workers” are essential and necessary, but

all of us can be used by God in his redeeming work, even if we are not on a church staff. LeTourneau faculty strive to prepare students who are studying for careers in engineering, busi-ness, aviation, education, nursing and the sciences to see their professions as a holy calling important to God. We refer to it as claiming every workplace in every nation as our mission field. In every field, competent professionals of Christ-like character can demonstrate God’s love in power-ful ways. Engineers can design sustainable water well pumps for Africa. Teachers can patiently impart the gift of reading to the next generation. Business professionals can create jobs to combat poverty for others. Ministry is not just for ministers. God loves you and me so that we can show his love to others. It was my privilege to travel with these selfless physicians and to witness their work in Ethiopia. For the people of Bishanjilba, they were God’s angels. For the rest of us, they are examples of the pos-sibilities that can happen when we choose to live out our faith in our professional lives, giving back to God the education, abilities, and gifts he has given to us. n

T he small flashlight beam is pointed down into the mouth of a young man as he leans back in a chair to have a painful abscessed tooth treated in this remote Ethiopian village. There is no electricity, no air conditioned waiting room,

no x-ray machine. The man holding the flashlight for the medical professionals is not a doctor or a dentist. He has no medical train-ing. He is a volunteer who felt God wanted him to experience this global reality. He is LeTourneau University President Dr. Dale A. Lunsford, who traveled to Bishanjilba, Ethiopia during spring break on a medical mission trip that included visits to identify possible future partnerships for service with schools and organizations of Buckner international and Bright Hope Ministries in Addis Ababa and Nazaret. “I needed the experience—to see it, smell it, touch it,” Lunsford said. “I encourage students to look outside of their comfort zone and follow God’s call to service. I knew I needed to do the same. “There is an expression that goes, ‘I need Africa more than Africa needs me.’ What that means is we think we are needed in Africa, and that we will make such a big difference in their lives, but what we find is that Africa changes us.” After returning to the United States, Lunsford was featured in the May 1 issue of The Longview News Journal which ran the following column, reprinted with permission.

A young woman’s clear, strong voice lifts up as she sings a capella the lyrics of one of her favorite Hillsong worship songs: “Lead me to the

cross, where Your love poured out. Bring me to my knees, Lord, I lay me down. Rid me of myself. I belong to You. O lead me, lead me to the cross.” When she opens her big, brown eyes, Ashley Bonilla’s face shows the peace in her heart. Bonilla was only 11 years old when she first felt the calling and began to lead worship at her nondenomina-tional church’s youth group in Houston. She was part of a youth worship team and led worship every Thursday night. Today the 19-year old sophomore is now one of the first students enrolled in LeTourneau Univer-sity’s new Worship Arts program that began this fall. Bonilla’s father is an LETU aeronautical science alumnus and encouraged his daughter to come to his alma mater to study youth ministry last year after she graduated high school in May 2010. But after she arrived, she discovered LETU would be of-fering a new Worship Arts program. “I was so excited! I spaced out for about 10 seconds when I first heard about it,” Bonilla said. “It was such a confirmation to me. I see a lot of God’s hand working in my life. When you are 11, you don’t know to search for God’s direction, but I just knew I had a very deep desire to sing and lead in worship—not to perform, but to lead others in wor-

ship and into the presence of God. Leading worship is how I can minister to people around me. God has their lives in His hands. He wants to touch, heal and use them. God has made clear that right now this is what I’m supposed to be doing.” Leading the new program is Dr. Mark Jonah, as-sistant professor of Worship Arts, who has designed the program. Jonah was a worship pastor for 25 years and has seen his job transform a number of times, from small churches to large, from hymn books to multimedia. His goal is to educate future leaders about how we worship, but also why we worship. “This new Worship Arts degree program provides the theological, historical and biblical background of worship, and also provides a practical component of how you do the job itself,” Jonah said. Jonah says worship leaders today are part techni-cal director, part musician and part pastor/shep-herd. As a technical director, they need to know how to set up and use projectors, speaker monitors, microphones and other sound equipment. As a mu-sician, they need to have discernment in the music messages and proficiency in leading. As a pastor/shepherd, they are organizing volunteers, pitch-ing projects and sharing their vision with others in leadership. Adopting the motto “Rooted and Relevant,” the Worship Arts program also takes students back through history where they view worship from ancient sources. “It’s rooted in God revealing Himself to us and

what He has done, but it also has to be relevant because we’re leading people today,” Jonah said. “The uniqueness of our program is that it’s not a music-based worship arts program,” he added. “There is music training as part of it, but we are em-phasizing the whole gamut of the biblical aspects of it as well. What is the history of the church concern-ing worship? What theological questions should we ask? How do we plan worship? What goes into a service? What are the resources out there that would help us do that?” Jonah says the program is a much broader look at what a worship minister does. “Do you need to carry a tune and play an instru-ment? Yes,” he said, “But your job is also to use the people whom God has provided in your congrega-tion.” Jonah accomplishes some of this training for his students by employing a required hour-long practi-cum each week as a lab. Here students not only prepare the LETU student body for worship through regular chapel services, but also prepare the venue. “It really doesn’t matter if it’s a small church or a large church, it probably has sound, lights and video,” Jonah said. “Every sized church has that now, not just the bigger ministries, and LETU’s Belcher Center provides a great venue where we can go and learn the craft of preparing for worship services. It may be a more sophisticated facility than what some of our students will have in a church set-ting, but it is easier to learn the big and then scale it down to the ministry where you serve, rather than

learn small and not be aware of what other pos-sibilities are out there.” In addition to learning the stage, regular practice also helps students gauge the participants. “We discuss, ‘Who is the congregation?’ During Chapel we have engineering students, aviation stu-dents and a variety of people who have already had classes that morning. How are we going to capture their attention and help them focus? You have to think about the characteristics of that group, so our chapel services are a good platform. You would do the same in any church setting, to know who you are leading,” Jonah said. Many students, like Bonilla, commit to a calling as a worship leader after working in their church’s music program, but LETU also helps by filling in some gaps in musical knowledge. One course, Mu-sic Basics, covers general topics such as ear training, sight-reading and notation, while private lessons are tailor-made to meet the students at their profi-ciency and skill levels or their need for training on piano/keyboard, voice and guitar. “A lot of students have some musical experience, but many may be self-taught,” Jonah said. “Les-sons help. They are designed to help them become more proficient.” Jonah says the new program, which was named a "Best of the Best" by editors at Worship Leader magazine in its October issue, provides a place for students to learn, grow and develop solid worship leadership for churches in the future. n
