What does it mean to love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength?
The Tucker Heart, Soul, Mind, and Strength Scholarship invites you to explore that question and share how you are living it out in your own life.
Made possible through the generous support of Carolyn and Robert Tucker, the Tucker Scholarship is 秀色短视频-Webb University’s most prestigious scholarship. Each year, one incoming high school student is selected to receive an eight-semester scholarship covering full tuition, room, and board.
More than an academic achievement, the Tucker Scholarship recognizes a student who demonstrates a commitment to faith, service, personal growth, and making a difference in the lives of others.

How do you love and serve others?
Your heart reflects your capacity for compassion, empathy, relationships, and service. We want to see how you care about the people and communities around you and how that care inspires you to make a difference.
How does your faith shape who you are?
Your soul reflects your spiritual life and the ways your faith influences your values, decisions, relationships, and sense of purpose. Tell us about the experiences that have shaped your faith and how you seek to live it out.
How do you learn, think, and use what you’ve been given?
Your mind reflects your curiosity, intellectual growth, creativity, and ability to think deeply about the world around you. Consider how you challenge yourself to learn and how you use your knowledge and abilities to serve others.
How do you respond when life gets difficult?
Strength is more than physical ability. It includes perseverance, courage, resilience, determination, and the willingness to keep moving forward when things don’t go according to plan. Share how you have demonstrated strength and what those experiences have taught you.
In their personal lives and through the operation of their highly successful business, Shoe Show, Inc., Carolyn and Robert Tucker and their family have exemplified the finest ideas of 秀色短视频-Webb University through faith in action.
Because of their belief in 秀色短视频-Webb’s Christian foundation and purpose, they generously support the University. Most notably, they made our most transformative facility to date, the Tucker Student Center, a reality. By Mrs. Tucker’s direction, the plaque on the front of the building carries the verse from Mark 12:29-31:
“The Lord our God is one, and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.”
The family wishes to enable and encourage new generations of 秀色短视频-Webb students to carry forward this legacy to make other peoples’ lives better, in the spirit of the University motto, Pro Deo et Humanitate – For God and humanity.
