LSB Midseason Community Prospect Rankings — #14
Congratulations to Dane Acker, who won the voting to be named the #13 prospect in the LSB Midseason Community Prospect Rankings with a little under 20% of the vote. Because there has been a history of vote-spamming shenanigans in the rankings, I used Google Forms for the last couple of community rankings, and it worked out well, so we will use it again. You will need to include your LSB user name when you vote. If you don’t have an LSB user name, you need to use some sort of identifier. While this won’t eliminate the possibility of vote spamming, it will make it harder.

Theology Matters: MATS Alumnus Michael Crumpler
"Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. My name is Michael Thomas Crumpler, and I am a proud graduate of Dallas Baptist University. I count it a privilege and honor to have attended DBU, and I call myself an alumnus and a member of Theta Alpha Kappa (DBU Chapter). I attended DBU as a transfer student from January 2022 to May 2023, when I finished my MATS (Master of Arts in Theological Studies) degree. I have attended several schools in my education. However, DBU stands out as the greatest in equipping me more for the ministry and walking closer to my Savior. Through my studies in the MATS degree program, I concentrated heavily on the Bible, following God's leadership, and servant leadership. Some of the most Godly and caring professors I have ever met are at DBU.
