Day 17 I’m incredibly excited to say that I’ve accepted a job offer at the company that I’ve been interviewing with (name of said company to be announced soon)! I received the wonderful call today after our prayer night for our church, which seems so fitting. I’ve purposefully kept my phone silenced and didn’t check it during our prayer nights to really tune in to what the Lord was saying to m...

Day 16 Today was amazing. I began my deeper study of The Book of Psalms for a small group that I’ll be helping lead with a few other church members. It was very fruitful, and I haven’t even gotten to the deeper analysis stage. I had my final interview with a CTO from the company that I’ve been interviewing with. It went extremely fast (it was only a 15-minute interview). We chatted about past...

Day 15 Today started early. I was up at 5:45 a.m. to fit in my Bible time before Church. This morning was exceptionally early because I served on the worship team and had to get in early to help set up the stage. Our church is a setup/teardown church—meaning that every Sunday we create and remove a house of worship—so preparing for the service takes extra time. The folks who set up and tear do...

Day 14 I started this blog fully expecting to have a solid amount of time to work on personal projects. This morning and throughout the day, I’ve realized that this has become more about my day-to-day and small accomplishments towards my “end-of-RIF” status. Perhaps that is valuable to some people? Other folks who have been through a RIF may enjoy seeing how others have tackled their own obsta...

Day 13 I woke up today and spent some time on my front porch with my Bible and a book called Providence by John Piper. It was an excellent morning; there isn’t much better than a hot cup of coffee, the sounds of nature in the early morning, and my American flag blowing in the wind. I spent some time in silence, which always grounds me and is also admittedly kind of hard to do. I try to spend 1...
