My message, that we feel stretched thin and undervalued, could sour this tenuous relationship.\u00a0Something good needs to happen and that ambassadorial burden falls on me.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">I say a quick prayer, take a deep breath, and then, I smile. Today\u2019s report has something special: the grace of Christ.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;text-align: center\"><strong>Seeking the Welfare of My Institution<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">In Jeremiah 29:7, God tells his people to \u201cseek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare.\u201d (ESV)<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">At my church, we are challenged weekly to live out the gospel in our community. One aspect of this calling is to seek the welfare, the good, of my institution. This means I actively identify key needs, then work towards meeting them with resources I have been given.\u00a0<\/p><blockquote style=\"font-weight: 400\">As I freely meet these needs, I demonstrate the grace of Christ, who came to freely give to us even as we were incapable of giving him anything.<\/blockquote><p style=\"font-weight: 400;text-align: center\"><strong>Relations Begin to Warm<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">So here I stand before this committee. The key need of mending strained relationships has a solution found in Christ. The gracious approach Christ took toward me, I now offer to them. My report from the faculty must remain true. Yet, through my attitude and delivery, I can give the unconditional welcome of Jesus.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">As I speak truth to them with grace, they listen to what I say as they welcome this attitude of grace towards them. Their bodies begin to relax. A few even smile back at me. The frozen relations between faculty and this administration group are beginning to warm.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;text-align: center\"><strong>God Transforms Me<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">God calls us to represent Christ in our various roles and relationships at our institutions. In my own encounters with challenging students, colleagues, and administrators, I experience plenty of times where I fall short of living out the grace of Christ to them. But as I rely on his grace to both see and act on those needs, God uses these opportunities to transform me and bring about the good of my institution, \u2018the city where I have sent you.\u2019<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">A few months have passed, and I now stand before this committee a second time. On this occasion I bring a very different message, one of gratitude for their generous actions towards the faculty. God\u2019s calling on his sojourning people is still true today; as I seek the welfare of my institution, I also find my welfare.<\/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-939ea28 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"939ea28\" 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-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-124c0f9\" data-id=\"124c0f9\" 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-e622753 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e622753\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus.cru.org\/faculty\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/652\/2025\/12\/unnamed.jpg?w=1230\" title=\"unnamed\" alt=\"unnamed\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\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<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0487c3a\" data-id=\"0487c3a\" 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-9db6268 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9db6268\" 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><strong>Brad Smucker<\/strong><\/p><p>Chemistry<\/p><p>Austin College<\/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<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It happens frequently throughout my academic career.
