Empowering Youth Ministry Education: How Rob Hildebrand Impacts Lives
在摩特诺玛大学, the faculty members are more than just educators; they’re mentors who shape the futures of their students. Dr. Rob Hildebrand is passionate about equipping students to make a difference in youth ministry, and does so by taking a unique approach to education and offering unforgettable opportunities to explore the world and serve others.
His motivation to teach youth ministry at Multnomah comes from the encounters he’s had with remarkable young individuals who hold the potential to transform the world. His deep belief in the impact of these students, especially when guided by Jesus’ teachings, fuels his dedication to teaching youth ministry.
As his students grapple with their place in the world and God’s call on their lives, Dr. Hildebrand tries to broaden their horizons by taking them through an annual study abroad opportunity. 每年, around 20 Multnomah students travel to France, where they live in he and his wife’s Chateau and explore eight countries, all the while engaging in comprehensive Bible readings. Students who participate can earn 12 credits for a fraction of the cost, and are immersed in the opportunity for personal growth through cultural exposure and academic enrichment. 很想看看城堡?

In addition to traveling through Europe with students while reading the Bible together, Hildebrand considers the opportunity to serve alongside his students to be the highlight of his time with the university. Multnomah is intentional about putting faith into action and nurturing the servant hearts of the student body. 无论是通过外展活动, 在当地非营利组织做志愿者, or welcoming more than a thousand high school students to campus led by Dr. Hildebrand and his 200+ student volunteers, Multhomah’s students are engaged with the local community.
Dr. Hildebrand’s dedication to nurturing students’ potential is unwavering. 通过他富有洞察力的教导, 授权留学项目, 强调有意义的学习, he continues to shape the future of youth ministers who will go on to impact generations to come. In the words of Hildebrand, “Learning matters, people matter.” And his contributions to Multnomah stand as a testament to this enduring truth.
