Korean Missionary Lesson on “Powerful Leader”
Micah Min and family came to EAST to study for his Master of Arts in Biblical Studies degree. He graduated in 2017 but not before he discovered EAST as a place, “where I grew [in] intimacy with God and with people….”
He admitted that before coming to EAST, he “used to think that a powerful leader is simply one who is very charismatic and passionate, and able to make people under him produce results.” He then concluded, “but I learned that a powerful leader is one who is humble and cares for people genuinely.”
Would you like to join EAST as part of your journey toward being a servant leader?
A Mongolian Pastor’s Leadership Lesson
Pastor Tuvshintugs Tsogtbaatar, or Tuvshuu as he’s known to his friends, studied at EAST and graduated in 2018 with a Master of Arts in Leadership. His wife, Burnee, graduated with a Partners in Ministry Certificate and a Graduate Diploma in Christian Ministry. They have two lovely young children.
This EAST alumnus reminisced of his time at EAST: “Yes, I learned much from the Leadership classes here [at EAST]. But it was the life of servant leaders I met who changed my life.”

Burnee as a Partner in Ministry
Ms Burnee Jargal said, “Back in Mongolia, I didn’t serve alongside my husband in ministry. I didn’t have the desire nor knew how. But when I came to EAST I saw many faculty couples serving together. That sparked my desire.”
She graduated with the Partner in Ministry certificate (2017) and a Graduate Diploma in Christian Ministry (2018).
