is Christ&#8221;, contentment should encourage us to \u201cstick our necks out\u201d on campus through ministry to others in Jesus\u2019 name and public identification as Christians.\u00a0<\/p><p>At the same time, godly contentment should affect our entire careers. I am a consummate \u201choop jumper\u201d, as I have moved from one career milestone to the next. While such things are appropriate rewards for work well done, I have to fight allowing these things to define me, rather than my knowledge of and trust in Christ.<\/p><p>In all this, I have tried to trust God for the time to protect both family and campus ministry.<\/p><p>As a professor, I have set a \u201c<b>family first<\/b>\u201d policy in my own research group and within the department I chair.\u00a0 Starting as a Ph.D. student at Berkeley, I resolved to avoid working at night so that I could nurture my marriage to my bride, Susie.\u00a0<\/p><p>When we were at Duke for my postdoc, our younger son, Christopher, was diagnosed with severe autism. Our family life has been forever changed as a result, but trusting God in the midst of life-altering events has led to great blessing.<\/p><p>As part of my \u201c<b>ministry<\/b>\u201d commitment, I have devoted time to speaking to student groups, to mentoring and sharing Christ with students, to serving as faculty advisor to student ministries, and through a team to organizing our local Christian faculty\/staff fellowship.\u00a0<\/p><p><span>I am a work in progress, but I hope and pray that I will continue to listen to God about these things.\u00a0 As was true for Paul, I have always found Him faithful.<\/span><\/p><p>As I interact with many Christian graduate students and faculty, they believe such a posture is unrealistic, and so they decide that a career as a professor at a major university is impossible, or, conversely, that all of their time should be devoted to their research and teaching on the campus.\u00a0<\/p><p>I challenge each of us to make sure that we have asked God about these decisions.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-83fb2a6 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"83fb2a6\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-bfbeb23\" data-id=\"bfbeb23\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ce66f89 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ce66f89\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Second, biblically based contentment will change how we deal with different circumstances. <\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d2472f5 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d2472f5\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-749854d\" data-id=\"749854d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6b2c0f4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6b2c0f4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>How we handle adversity can be a powerful witness to non-Christian colleagues when state legislatures change tenure policies, amid budget cuts, or when our paper or grant proposal is rejected.
