Living on Purpose

I’m sure we’ve all found ourselves so caught up in our daily lives, that we lose sight of what it really means to live a life of purpose. As we’ve been teaching our Leadership Summit students, it takes intentionality to live a purposeful life.

Our coaches are working on intentionally living their lives to reflect what they are teaching their students. Each week they write down a specific thing they did that helped them live a life of purpose. The stories they have shared have been an encouragement to themselves, their fellow coaches, the Leadership Summit Staff, and even their students!

Jwalane: One of my friends came to me and told me that they have no food. My sister left me bread for breakfast, so I took the bread and gave it to my friend.

Thembi: I helped someone who couldn’t read. I went with him to the bank to explain the rules of investment to him, and filling out the forms for him because he doesn’t know how to write.

Joseph: Last week I met a boy who was having a problem with transport. I gave him taxi fare so that he didn’t need to walk a long distance.

Mapuleng: The last two weeks, a friend of mine was telling me her problems. She is married to an unbeliever, so I gave her my Sex, Love, and Relationships book to read and know more about what God says about marriage.
