Researching what I'll do in University

I have been researching sociology--social work and I have even started to apply for Redeemer College. I am hoping that getting a sociology degree will help me with my people and life skills. I would like to learn to associate with people in a way that shows God's love in all situations and how to handle life in a Christ-like manner. I hope that a Christian education will help me to know how to be a good Christian influence on many needy non-Christians that police associate with.
