The biggest decision in the past that I passed on at the time, but in hindsight, would have chosen differently is giving my life to Christ at an early age. I have had moments where my brother gave me a Bible, or my Christian friend invited me to hang out with him instead of going to place I should not have been and both times I passed and continued to live a life of sin. Until 2005, on an Easter stadium service at Calvary Chapel, where I finally gave my life to Christ. I know God’s timing is perfect, but sometimes I think of the years that I missed out on truly living if I would have accepted Jesus at a young age. Thank God for mercy and grace. Steve Daigle, Campus Pastor, Calvary Chapel Parkland That’s a tough question. I truly believe I am doing what God called me to do at CBMC…Connecting business people in the Marketplace to God and to each other!!! Back in the day I decided not to go to graduate school at Ohio University for Sports Administration. It was so that I didn’t break up with my girlfriend who I eventually married. The marriage didn’t work out, and I ended up in South Florida migrating from the NYC area. But I still wonder…what that would have been like working in an area I really love since I was a kid! Steve Solomon, Area Director, CBMC South Florida I have always loved to dance. When I was in high school, I used to dream of being on the drill team. I did try out for cheerleading, but it required too much discipline. Sadly, I didn’t have the desire to spend so much time practicing, so I dropped out. I made the cheerleading squad that rooted for the high school wrestling team. But I exited that opportunity, too. If I had it to do over, I’d finish what I started. I am thankful that God has opened doors for me to do what I love. I was a dancer for Expressions of Joy, and I am a cardio/weight instructor at Calvary Chapel Fort Lauderdale. Tewannah Aman, Executive Director, Broward Right to Life In my freshman year of college at Kent State University, I walked on to the football team. Sadly, after a couple games, I was frustrated that I was just sitting on the bench and quit the team. If I had the chance to do it over again, I would have stayed with it. Even if I wasn't playing, there would have been great opportunities to learn and grow. I now have a "Never Give Up" mindset that has helped me in everything that I do, especially when it comes to providing Hope, Homes and Healing for kids and their families. That team went on to win the Mid-American Championship. Two of the many great players on the team were NFL Hall of Fame linebacker Jack Lambert and the coach with the most National Championships in NCAA history, Nick Saban.
