Job Interview

I’ve had two interviews now with Fellowship Church and I am quite excited and a little apprehensive. This would be a big change for me, something new and totally different and the guys that have interviewed me have expressed repeatedly that this place will reshape you. Which is exactly what I want. I’m so bored all the time. Even with all of my jobs I feel like it is too easy or has too many limitations for me to really grow and shine. Like I’m some potted plant and in order to really grow I need to be moved to a large pot or planted outside of my comfy house where I can really flourish.

Here are the concepts I came up with for interview #2. In the first interview they asked a lot of great questions and then sent me home with homework. I came back with this:

vi.    Example Script – Dear Diary, today I just want to be normal. I’m so tired of living a lie. Shame and Fear are my constant companions.

3.   Giving instead of Taking

ii.    At the end of the video we will use the tag line: What is your measure of success?
iii.    The entire night will be a juxtaposition of various types of success.
iv.    Live speakers will take the stage and discuss what it feels like to give back and how it is truly better to give than to receive
v.    Wrap up the session with Paul’s verse from 2 Corinthians 6 – known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed; sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything
vi.    Outside in the smaller room setup booths for people to sign up for Habitat for Humanity, Missions, Red Cross, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Charitable Organizations, etc.

i.    Army tanks and hand grenades
ii.    The entire theme is based around setting the captives free, equipping the soldiers, etc.
iii.    Use the back room as a “base camp” of sorts for planning.
iv.    I’m envisioning uniforms and guards at the doors
v.    I think a stomp routine might be fun to interject at some point. Military style complete with a drumline from a local high school band if possible.
vi.    Class Description:  Why do people lose their battles? Because they are ill equipped. In every situation the proper tools are necessary to get the job done. Your mission is to use the tools and training we give to set the captives free.
vii.    Flyers will include an outline:
1.    Training
2.    Equipment
3.    Deployment
4.    Post Op
5.    Recruitment

So these concepts included some pictures and ideas to go along with them all neatly bundled and bound at Kinkos.

Keep me in your prayers as this will be a big change for me and I only hope to do the Lord’s will.
