My name is Ruth Anderson, and I am from a small town in southern Minnesota, USA. I am studying for minister credentials at the Christian Leaders Institute to demonstrate credibility as I serve in my community and church (Learn more about studying the Bible online, Click Here).
About Me
Married for over 31 years, my husband, Keith, and I have five adult children, most married, and three grandchildren. We have also had many others live with us for a period that we consider family.
I have an Associate degree in Practical Theology from Christ for the Nations Institute, a BS in Elementary Education from Mankato State University, and an AA in Graphic Design/Photography from the Institute of Arts & Design Technology. I have been a Christ-follower since I was a child. Also, I own my photography/graphics business, and my favorite projects are working with churches and ministries.
I grew up in a Christian family as the oldest of three girls. We lived on an organic farm. I grew up in the ways of the Lord after my parents experienced my miraculous healing at the age of 21 months old. I realized my need for a personal Savior when I was eight. Becoming a wife and mother increased my awareness that I need to depend on Jesus in every area of my life, as we’ve faced various trials and opportunities to trust Him. God is always faithful!
Minister Credentials to Demonstrate Credibility
I have served in various capacities at our church and in para-church ministries. Finding the Christian Leaders Institute with tuition-free ministry courses and credentialing options is a blessing. I want minister credentials to demonstrate credibility in a rapidly changing world that desperately needs hope only in Jesus.
