My first year of college was very boring. I knew very few people on campus and was desperate to fit in. To live up my college dream I decided to join a fraternity. The decision to join brought about a lot of good and bad things. I gained many leadership skills as well as connections on campus and in the community. However, I got caught up in the drinking and party scene and was having no influence in my chapter. I was just another fraternity guy that wanted to have fun and not face up to the consequences of my actions. Going to church was non-existent for me. I was in a hole.

During the beginning of my junior year, I felt led to go on a state-wide conference put on by Campus Crusade.  It was at this conference that I broke down in tears and admitted that I was not living the way God wanted me to.

Because of the surrender that occurred, the following two years were amazing. My family, friends, and co-workers supported me on mission trips to Chicago, Sand Diego, and even oversees to the country of Serbia. During these trips, I realized that God had created me for something bigger than I had previously thought.

All my life I dreamed about getting a computer job and making lots of money. That was my driving force to succeed in school. Through the help of my friends and mentors however, I quickly realized that God had gifted me with the ability to work with people - and not only that, but to do it in the context of ministry.

So here I am, giving up my dreams of high-paying jobs to take on the challenge of a higher calling. A calling that will have an eternal impact on thousands of students. A calling that gets me excited every morning when I wake up - and one that I realize now I was predestined for. Will you join me?
