This past weekend, the women of IMPACT 360 were out on their Womanhood Retreat at Summit Ministries in Alabama. Having had the Manhood Retreat the weekend before, we men of IMPACT were left in charge of the campus, and we were ready to put what we’d learned about Biblical manliness in to practice. So, while the women were out, the men got to work. Early Friday morning, we embarked on some student-led …

My time at IMPACT 360 has been a proverbial rollercoaster. I have gone from the highest of the highs to the lowest of lows, had nights where I question why I even put myself through this in the first place, and yet still woken up the next morning praising God for all the wonderful (albeit hard) lessons that He’s teaching me. I came into IMPACT 360 thinking that I for the most part, had my …

When I came IMPACT360, I had very few instances where I needed to act on a professional level. If I had been placed in such a professional situation, I would not have known how to speak or behave. However, over the past several months, we have been instructed on how to approach professional settings. We have been taught how to speak, stand, eat, and converse on a professional level. This past Wednesday, I was able …

When I first left TN for Impact, I was positive for homesickness. Desperately so. I longed for my family, for the familiar places, even for the grocery stores I knew. I wanted to go home.
Yet the longer I stayed in Pine Mountain, the more I started to refer to this place as “home.” The dorms were home. Campus was home. Pine Mountain was home. Even while I was in TN for …

Tonight’s monthly GNO (Guys/Girls Night Out) underwent some interesting last minute changes. Whatever the previous plans were, they were shortly scrapped and we were all informed that instead of leaving campus at 5:00, we would be meeting in David and Mary Michael’s rooms at 8:00. The only words of instruction they gave us were to come in our pajamas and be ready to get comfortable. Well, we soon found out that our GNO’s were now …

This week, the students of IMPACT 360 spent a great three days in Lineville Alabama. SIFAT, or Servants In Faith And Technology, is a Christian nonprofit organization that provides training in self-help programs for a needy world. Students were able to spend a night in their global village, a great place to learn how people in other parts of the world live. Students also saw how trading among other countries works. At the end of …

This past weekend, in addition to serving at City of Refuge on Friday, we helped host two block parties on Saturday in the Atlanta area. One was held in Walton Communities in Marietta and the other was held in Clarkston, the most diverse community in the world. I was assigned to the Clarkston group and was responsible for running the salvation bracelet table and sharing my testimony with the kids that stopped by my table. …

See AllThis week at IMPACT, we had the pleasure of having Dr. John Nyquist be our guest lecturer. As we prepare to leave for Brazil in January, it is important that we learn about the predominant religion there, in order that we may better share the Gospel message. Dr. Nyquist shared his extensive knowledge on the subject of Catholicism, and how to engage Catholic believers in conversation.
Having grown up in a Catholic church, I was really …

This past weekend, October 28 – 29, the Impact 360 Class of 2012 ventured to a part of Atlanta that was foreign to many of us. We found ourselves in a neighborhood where drop-out rates were high, incomes were low, and a regard for the law was scarce to be found. In the midst of this poverty-stricken community, however, God established City of Refuge, a shelter for the weary and a light …
