What it means to us to be a Christian-based bar review business...

Celebration Bar Exam Review is owned by Jackson and Sara Mumey. We have been in business for many years and God has blessed our work and lives in so many ways. We try to reflect our gratitude by conducting business in a way that honors our Lord.

As part of that commitment, we pledge to treat our students fairly and with respect, and we strive to be a place of support and aid during the high-stakes anxiety and pressure that often accompany the bar exam. We don't always succeed, but we trust and pray that our lives will honestly demonstrate how much love and mercy we have personally received in our lives. We think grace is pretty cool, too!

For Christians, we hope that our business will be comforting. For others, we pray that how we conduct our business may spark curiosity about a relationship with God that transcends doing "business as usual."

Here's what some of our students wrote to us about our way of doing business:

"Let me start by saying, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING!  I believe I did very well on the exam but I am reserving the word "pass" until the day I actually find out I passed.  You are amazing and I am so glad that God led me to you.  You have a true gift of leading people through this experience." 2008 Bar Taker

I want you to know how much I appreciate you bringing God into your emails.  It's really a wonderful twist on bar prep that helps daily.  Thankfully, I am surrounded by friends I go to church with, so I have them praying for me and with me.  It's fabulous to have that kind of support.  However, I love that you provide for those who may not be surrounded by such grace.  Thank you for providing a bar prep course that also reminds me of what's truly important.   2006 Bar Taker

Thank you so much for your email - it was truly inspirational. Through the entire process I felt reassured that I had your expertise and faith in my corner. enjoyed studying with you and thought that your materials were excellent. I thought a great deal of your gift of veracity and your directness. I had some withdrawal from the whole process. I had been so active in my studies and suddenly flatlined afterwards but like all things that too has passed. 2008 Bar Taker

"Thanks to you and Sara for the tremendous work you do, dealing with us neurotic bar takers. Why you would subject yourself to that pain and torture, I don't know, but I imagine it is what you are called to do. You are truly a light of God." 2005 Bar Taker

"Your Christian-based bar review is a wonderful blessing and testimony to God's work in the lives of those who pursue to be a Christian and a practicing attorney." 2005 Bar Taker

As a last word, Jackson, I would personally like to thank you for your efforts in putting together a fantastic bar review.  I understand that your business is a commercial venture....  But I also know that an individual has a choice to make about how dedicated he wants to be to the things he does, in business or otherwise.  Your dedication to the Celebration Bar Exam Review truly shines, and your customers are the real beneficiaries of such devotion.  "Thanks" doesn't seem to be enough."

"Again I want to thank you for all your encouragement and your ministry of caring.  May God continue to bless you in all that you do. I would like to share Proverbs 16: 1-3 with you:
"
To man belong the plans of the heart, but from the Lord comes the reply of the tongue. All  a man's ways seem innocent to him, but motives are weighed by the Lord. Commit to the Lord whatever you do, And your plans will succeed."  I know in my heart that God is pleased with you and the motives for your ministry. Continue to honor Him with your life and your work. Thanks for being there."

"...Finally I would like to mention that, totally unexpected to me, this course was also a very precious spiritual journey. I have no idea what church Sara and Jackson belong to, although I trust it is a great church, this never was an issue nor put forward. I guess if you do not show any interest on that side of the preparation you never get to talk about it. Through this course I learned how to pray more,  praise more and let the trust in Christ grow in me. I prayed during the exam, as I had learned to pray while studying and it certainly helped me a lot to put this bar hysteria in me and around me into perspective. I learned some life lessons here, which were frankly more valuable than passing the bar.
Thank you so much Jackson and Sara."

"I am happy to share my news.  You can add my name to your ever-growing list of very pleased, and gratefully successful, course-takers.  While the Bible is full of miracles and signs, I think we all realize that God works in our lives through others, often without our even being aware.
Your excellent course materials, and continual guidance, proved a light unto my path.  I thank you, and I thank God.
 Of all the positive aspects of your course, the three most important items for me were: 1) the sense of context which you instilled through the regular email communications, 2) the structure of guidance manifest in the comprehensive syllabus no doubt crafted through years of expert insight, and 3) the study questions with their immediate feed-back and explanations.
