Epiphany #4: Being Challenged is a Great Thing
I am so excited about having been nominated for appointment into High Tech Ministries’ Ambassador program. This is a year-long and rigorous commitment for Christian IT leaders in the Atlanta area who are committed to being spiritually mentored/trained/challenged, to scripture memorization, and to personal and group Bible study, with the purpose of being equipped to be a better example of Christ-likeness in all areas of life, and “paying it forward” with others within our sphere of influence.
HTM is so serious about participant commitment to this program that nominees are required to formally apply (quite an application, including a short essay and writing a brief self-obituary) and sign a covenant of commitment before even being interviewed and submitted to the selection committee for consideration. Spouses also have a covenant to sign acknowledging their support for their husband/wife making this time commitment for a year!
I truly feel called to (and love) developing other young/up and coming professionals and potential leaders, and am ready to be challenged further in my faith and to become a better steward of those precious opportunities that God always seems to lay in my path.
A special thank you to Lisa LaRoque from my Intellinet family – who recently completed this year-long commitment herself – for caring enough to realize that this would be a great and special opportunity to take my game and walk with Christ to another level!
