In this episode of Under the Fig Tree, hosts Rev. Micah Glenn and Dr. Ben Haupt sit down with second-year Master of Divinity (M.Div.) student Daniel Bueckman. From the seeds of ministry that were planted when he was young, to the career opportunities in international business he had coming out of college, Daniel shares his journey to the Seminary. They also discuss some of Daniel’s current course work and his interest in chaplaincy with the U.S. Navy. And they have some fun with the segment “Ripe for the picking or leave it on the tree?” Will you eat pork rinds? What about Christmas music in November? Let us know in the comments!
