I spent 21 years serving my country in the US Air Force. I enjoyed most of my time there. I am very proud of my service in the Air Force. But, in the 2 years I have been retired from the military I have changed jobs 4 times. I am only running an average of 6 months per job, and I am very embarrassed about it. None of the changes are due to being fired, but are self initiated changes looking for the "right job".
I did it again. I start a new job on Monday with another company. The company is Science Applications International Corporation, also known as SAIC. They do lots of military related IT. I worked for SAIC for 5 months right after I retired and I would still be with them if not for a personality conflict between my boss and myself. Now I am taking a different job with them. They are a wonderful company to work for and it will be very challenging work. I will be the Program Manager for Air Mobility Command's Expeditionary GeoBase Program. This means that I will be in charge of coordinating information needs between AMC and all the airfields overseas that we fly to or think we will fly to in the near future. I have really enjoyed working for Northrop Grumman Mission Systems, but this new job is something I have trained for most of my life.
Anyhow, now one will ever accuse me of being part of the status quo, because I haven't stuck around long enough to qualify! Hopefully, this will be the right job, although in the back on my mind I know I will end up in full-time ministry and I only view whatever job I am in currently as filler time until the Lord tells me the time is right.

Hi Rick,
I don't call myself "reformed" but when Jesus Christ said “it is finished", I believe He meant it. In fact, anyone who says that the elect sinner has to meet a condition in order to be saved should take note of these biblical propositions:
1.The righteousness of God that is revealed in the gospel is His salvation of sinners based on the propitiatory sacrifice and imputed righteousness of Jesus Christ alone (Rms 3:21-4:8; 10:4; 2 Cor 5:21).
2.Those who are ignorant of the righteousness of God revealed in the gospel are going about to establish a righteousness of their own and are thus lost, no matter how zealous they are for God (Romans 10:1-3).
3.Anyone who does not abide in the doctrine of Christ is lost (2 Jn 9).
4.Anyone who speaks peace to one who brings a false gospel is lost (2 Jn 11)
Rick, I'd be interested to know what you think of our website.
