What does having a call on your life look like? The simple answer to this question is to follow our discussion with Reuben Johnson. He took us on his trip as a Prodigal Son being called by God.
Reuben took us on a walk of his past and present by taking us through his memories.
- Grew up in the church of Christ and had no other teaching than walking with the LORD
- Grew up in the church (mom, grandmother, great grandmother, grandfather, etc)
- The family did everything revolving around the church
- Dad not in the body of Christ
- His dad would go on and off with his family, but the attitude of the members turned me off
- Ministering to his dad
- Helping mom by lay out dad’s suit
- He and his mom had to be the example his father needed as Christian
- His dad loves how he is raising his children in the admonition of the Lord
- His children would call their grandad and tell him how service was
- Falling off as a Christian
- His mom did not fall off, but she took a route that was not so repetitive
- Reuben starting venturing out as a youth
- Reub on Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri and Sat (doing him)
- Lost everything while in College
- Became Baptist because he attended an HBCU that had Baptist principles
- Married his best friend
- Met his wife his junior year of college
- His wife (back bone and rib) was a PK and would not get involved with him until he got his spiritual life together
- She held him accountable regarding his walk with the Lord
