When I graduated college, I didn’t expect to feel so… disconnected.

I was stepping into a new job, learning how to “adult,” figuring out bills and schedules and responsibilities. On paper, life was moving forward. But spiritually? Something felt off, and I couldn’t put a finger on it. 

Earlier this year, the president of Salem Community College (SCC) in New Jersey held a meeting of the campus department chairs.

"Everyone is talking about ������Ƶ on campus!" one of the chairs said.

That alone is an incredible testament to God’s faithfulness, but just a year ago, Salem had no known ministry on campus.

Mentors, like Tyler and Paul, shaped some of the most important moments in my walk with Jesus.

In high school, Tyler challenged me to memorize Scripture, cast vision for evangelism that led to baptizing two friends, and created space for accountability — like the night he drove me home and listened as I confessed a secret sin that had been eating at my soul.

Being a good leader is overrated.

If you just stepped into leadership this year, you probably don’t believe that yet. You want to serve faithfully. You want to honor God, so you aim for “good.”

But what if the biggest threat to your leadership isn’t failure? What if it’s striving for good?
