This mightbe surprising for some, but Oklahoma has a very rich and fascinatinghistory. Why on earth do we study Oklahoma’s history? There are amultitude of reasons. But the key point is to understand that from whichwe came so that we can continue to grow. I am super excited to be able tospend this semester talking to you about the history of this great state and how you play a role as an Okie!

Elaina Davis is Social Sciences Education Major at Oklahoma Baptist University. She’s in her final year and is so excited to teach! She’s been teaching much of her life through ministry experiences and church service with young people.  Elaina is so excited to share her love for history with the next generation! Her passions are all over the place, just as she was all over Oklahoma and Texas growing up. So besides history, she has been actively participating in theatre for years.  Opportunities to direct, stage manage, act, build sets have been plentiful for Elaina. She has been nationally awarded for her work and her creativity flows in to how she shares her passions with students. Elaina has served as a children’s ministry intern at Council Road Baptist Church and was recently asked to help direct at the Heart of the Child Conference. “Elaina’s servant leadership flows out in all she involves herself in !” (Mrs Vass’ words)

Elaina says…

“I am so excited knowing that I’m pursuing God’s plan for my life, I’m thankful that he’s not only got me to where I am, but kept me there.”
