Engineer
I accepted Christ as Lord in my Junior year of college at USC. I was raised in the Catholic Church, but left the church due to discomfort with my confession to a priest; which resulted in my lying to him during the confession. Being a nerd/geek, I read the entire Bible before the Holy Spirit convicted me of my need for a personal relationship with Jesus. After my conversion, I spent three years under the teaching of David Hocking at Calvary Church of Tustin and then moved to Calvary Chapel under Chuck Smith. After five years under Chuck, God moved my wife and I to the Bay (gray) area in which we continued to be part of Calvary Chapel work. After seven years, God once again moved us to the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountain range to continue His work. I listen to Chuck Smith teachings along with other teachers such as Chuck Missler, Barry Stagner and Don Stewart via MP3 audio. But Chuck is my favorite even though I don't agree with everything his teaches (Allegorical teaching on Song of Solomon). I've been an engineer in the communications industry for 30 years and a geek from childhood. I love being an engineer as it fits so well with my beliefs. Computers either work or they don't. There is no partial operation, exact operations are required for basic functions. Bugs, hacks, viruses, and voltage fluctuations cause systems to stop working or have degraded performance. Just like being a Christian, there are things in the world that hinder our ability to honor God in our lives. We have to remove the junk in order to shine brightly for Christ. Since Satan can't keep a believer from going to hell, he can hinder the believer from fulfilling all that God has for him and from bringing others to Jesus. As John put it in 1 John 2:15-17, we need to have a loose hold on the things of this world. Are you willing? It's not easy, humility is required. God does not require you to have some skill or ability, He only asks are you willing and available. God will provide the skill and ability so He will receive the Honor and Glory for the work He does in and through you.
