Profiles in Faith: Jim Lucas

What does faith mean to you in one sentence?
Faith is my journey of gradually giving away everything I am to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
If you were going to tattoo it on your arm, which Bible verse would it be?
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. Psalm 147:3
What is your favorite thing about being part of Men of Faith?
I love how many of the men in our group are able to open themselves to fellowship, spiritual exploration, and reading scripture together. I am gratified when we look at difficult life situations and examine them using our faith as the lens instead of relying only on our own judgment and experience. I also get a kick out of the simple pleasure of saying grace in together in public.
What is one thing you would like to see added in the future?
I would like to see 50% of our Dinner Program speakers bubble up from inside our ministry to lead by sharing and personal example. We are just now starting to see this possibility.
What is one thing you would like to see eliminated in the future?
I'm not a big fan of secular guest speakers so, if the topic or speaker doesn't stretch me spiritually, I'm not that interested. I can get secular information elsewhere.
