Dr. Gerald Robison: Managing Your Time as a College Student

Managing your time as a college student is getting difficult? Gerald Robison has pastored churches on three continents, trained over 1,200 Bible teachers in over twenty-five countries, served as the international training manager for Walk Thru the Bible, and founded and cofounded three ministries. Affectionately known as “Dr. G” to many, he has a deep foundation for ministry. He was called to ministry while still in high school and began preparations for it. He achieved his BA in psychology and counseling at Furman and Mercer Universities, his master’s degree and his Doctor of Ministry at Luther Rice Seminary, another master’s degree in education and counseling at Georgia State University, and more graduate studies at the International Institute of Theology and Law sponsored by Simon Greenleaf School of Law and the International Institute of Human Rights sponsored by the University of Strasbourg, France.

In episode 584 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out what originally sparked his passion for global missions and ministry work, what are common examples of these unused moments in college, what are practical habits students can adopt today to start redeeming their time like Elon Musk, how we can turn short moments into powerful opportunities for growth or productivity, advice for students who are searching for their life’s purpose or feeling unsure about their future path, a mistake he made early in his leadership journey that taught him something invaluable about managing time, how students can develop the discipline to live intentionally, how students can live out a global vision in a very local college setting, and one lasting message about faith. Enjoy!
