Introduction

I have been teaching at the Pentecostal University of Theology since 2004, initially as a teacher, and since 2007 as a full-time associate and vice-rector.

I consider it my mission to provide quality Christian service. This applies to both students and instructors, they are in the same team, but their tasks are currently different.
All of us must take responsibility and work in a transparent and verifiable manner, aware of the reckoning before Christ.
In order to achieve the above goal, I consider it important to involve modern and innovative technologies and tools in Christian service.
