Bossier City, LA Experience gained by preachers Bible majors are much in evidence at Harding and most of them have plans that include localized work. There is a program available at Harding to give Bible majors experience in their field outside the classroom. Participators in the student preaching program include students who wish to work regularly with a congregation. Most student preachers work at congregations quite a distance from the school, and because of this are unable to return between morning and 116 - JUNIORS evening worship services each Sunday. Those afternoons are spent in visiting families of the congregation, talking with visitors and personal study. Steve Kell, a student preacher working in Culpepper, Arkansas, says that the biggest problem he has encountered is one of getting the older members of the congregation to accept the idea of a young minister. "You've got to be sure and stifle the young know-it-all image if you want older people to respect you and come to you with their problems . . . This means treating the student preaching program as more than just an experience and it also means learning much about humility." The program offers an opportunity that should be taken advantage of by all Bible majors. It gives them experience by actually working with people. They are required to make decisions and deal with very personal problems. This kind of knowledge cannot be found in books and courses. As Steve Kell says, "It comes from venturing out and getting your hands dirty."
