Marine Sniper with Ken Lovell-CMAW122

What You'll Hear: Ken started out mowing lawns, pruning Christmas trees and working at McDonalds Ken grew up as a Chreaster, going to church on Christmas and Easter because his Grandma said they should   Ken's Dad decided to accept Christ after hearing a sermon, and everything changed for Ken and his family   Soon after that, at age 16, Ken accepted Christ as his Savior, but it took a while to figure out what that meant for him Once we're made aware of the penalty of sin, sadly we often have a "not yet" faith and think of Jesus as a 911 call, as opposed to a "right now" faith.  Ken's Dad had a "right now" faith, but Ken did not at first and didn't make Jesus his Lord until his '30's   "I had to figure out that if it's good and not from God, it's not good at all"   "When I joined the Marines everyone was surprised because I was small"   We had a term in the Marines "oxygen thief", I didn't want to be that   "There was a special moment in boot camp where I knew there was never going to be something to make me quit and tarnish my family name, you could say the same with living the Christian life"   Ken served as a Marine Scout Sniper, he was on Presidential security duty for President Clinton and Bush, and served as a Marine Drill Instructor and Marine School Instructor   In 2007 Marine Raiders were added to the special forces   Break 1 - 24:42 - We've been talking about Ken's fascinating experiences in the Marine Corps.  Next we're going to get into his thoughts about changing jobs and his experience in the FCA.   "I'm less concerned with what I do anymore, and more concerned with why I'm doing it"   Ephesians 1:9-10   The purpose is to bring everything together in Jesus   "My entire heart is rooted in making sure that I am trying to draw somebody into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ, because in Him is the common ground we can all exist on"   Ken is an Area Director for FCA and has 4 counties in Eastern North Carolina   The Vision of FCA is that Jesus Christ can transform the world through the influence of coaches and athletes   "We make the mistake of compartmentalizing our faith"   "Ministry is our responsibility, all of us"   "Jesus pitched His tent where we are"   Contact kenlovell75 all over social media or look up Coastal NC FCA
