In the Fall of 1970, I attended ONE quarter; possibly the beginning of my career of Volunteering for the sake of reaching out to those who most had given up on. The inspiration of the teachings of the Denomination and in general high quality of the staffs belief that the Tide Would Turn and greatness would return to Piedmont College gave me determination in what I believe Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior wanted me to do.
The next 42 years I would volunteer for the lost calls and those nobody else wanted to even try to lead. I am still following what I learned in that ONE quarter of experience there is No Limit of what Jesus Christ would do to influence anyone who needed His assistance. (That quarter was caucus with fires being set, drunken brawls, the administration building flooded all but destroyed, hazing totally out of control.) But during it all I learned that no matter what the circumstance the Power of Understanding and Forgiveness leads to the narrow path that Jesus Him self had to follow. Piedmont College taught me that no adversity would be too much for me to work through and reach out to those that no one else cared about. Today I use the tools of satin the www> the wicked/world/warrior to inspire, include, encourage to try another way the way of trying to understand another point of view - that of peace and love for all. Surprisingly it most often leads those lost back to the ways Christ would approve.
