ADMISSIONS ESSAY Leadership has been described as the process of social influence in which one person or group of persons can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task. The world has witness many great leaderspast and present. The greatest of them all to me is our lord Jesus Christ. His selfless and humble act of service to mankind is unparallel in human history. I personally take my guiding principles from his Sermon on the Mount recorded at Mathew chapters 5 to 7. No man has been successful at leadership like Jesus. My decision to apply to Liberty University is therefore premised on the fact that the school seeks to groom Christ-like leaders. Ghana has been struggling with problems of underdevelopment for years. Key contributing factor to this problem is the lack of transformational and visionary leaders like Jesus. My country is blessed with many natural resources and recently discovered oil in commercial quantities. Yet, over 60% of the populace lives on less than $1.00 a day. To help ameliorate this problem, I have from age 5 tried to develop Christ-like personality and leadership qualities which will eventually help influence future developmental projects ,especially politics in Ghana. Born a Christian, I fellowship with Charismatic evangelism ministry church. My Christian faith is based on the conviction that the Bible is the word of God, Jesus Christ the son of God and the Holy Spirit Gods active force for creation and all other things. To me, without Christ there is no life and salvation comes through Christ only. This faith encompasses my belief system, which in turn directs my daily actions. The opportunity to study international relations in liberty University will enable me deepen this belief system, and also provide me with holistic education geared towards fully cultivating the Christ-like leadership qualities in my chosen field of studies. With the idea of helping build a career in international relations and politics and Christ-like personality, I strongly opted for Liberty University. I am aware of your outstanding reputation, and excellent academic faulty and facilities and in no doubt that the opportunity to study with you will provide me with the

springboard to realize my life objectives. I look forward to the thrill and shrill of total education at Liberty. My contribution to the environment and culture at Liberty University will be manifested in my life style and excellent academic abilities. I plan to enrich Liberty through unquestionable moral conducts in speech, dressing, walking, and the kind of people I associate with, as well as through my overall personality. Ever since I was young, I have always sought to lead exemplary life which reflects the Christ in me. Virtues like moral chastity, integrity, and compassion for others are dear to me. These I plan to continue at Liberty University. On the second point of academic excellence, well I can only let my intellectual prowess speak for me after my first semester at Liberty. Living with a surrogate father has taught me the benefit of excelling academically. I am deprived of almost everything except the ability to excel in school. It would be my greatest honor to be enrolled in your prestigious school.
