Teaching in ministry
BRINGING PEOPLE TO THE FEET OF JESUS

Caitlin Bennett ’24 started at Bluffton University as an intervention specialist major but ultimately found her vocation in ministry rather than education.
“It’s cool because Jesus was a teacher, too,” explained Bennett. “In those classes, I got to see the breakdown of how teaching happens, and now I get to apply those skills when I give sermons and do talks.”
Now a Bible and theology major, Bennett is gaining experience in ministry as a floating teacher at Learning Tree Child Care Center where she works with kids ranging in age from toddlers through sixth grade.
“My main job there is to love the kids the way Jesus does which has been really fun,” said Bennett, who found the position through her church.
