How do you find time to connect with God during the busy years of graduate school?
Pastor and InterVarsity staff, Howard Chang, shares, "My years working toward two graduate degrees while raising three children, ministering full- time at church, and managing a severe chronic illness stretched the limits of my physical stamina and spiritual resilience.
