Puritan Board Freshman
I will soon be graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies. I chose the program because 1. it gave me the most credit for military experience (66 credits) 2. it allowed me to take pretty much any class I wanted and 3. I had/have a desire to attend seminary and pursue ministry and this degree allowed me to finish my bachelors before exiting the military thus allowing me the use of the GI Bill for seminary vs. undergrad.
With all that said, what kind of job can I get with a general bachelors degree? Most of my classes were in social science/liberal arts (history, theology, western culture, etc.) I am due to transition from the military in 18 months and want to attend seminary at some point but don't know that 18 months from now is the time to do that. I haven't had the ability to stay in one congregation long enough to have elders and other folks in the church make a good decision on my call to pastoral ministry. Likewise, we are in the middle of a transition from being baptistic to being reformed/Presbyterian. What kind of work can I find with a general bachelors degree that will help me care for my family?
* I might add that my job in the military is not transferable to an outside job
