As a high school teacher at Victory Christian School in Camden, Arkansas, I am so grateful that God put the Ramp Leadership Network in my path! The monthly interactive zoom calls are a breath of fresh air in the crazy yet rewarding world of teaching and I often refer back to them when needed. Also I love getting to meet up with my fellow RLN family at Ramp conferences throughout the year to get to fellowship and pray together! Not only have I found a family here, but an army to link arms with and fight together for Gen Z!

I’ve always had a yearning for this generation. So often I have heard Boomers II, Gen X, and even Millennials say that Gen Z is a lost cause, that they are “too far gone” and corrupted by this world. Those words shatter my heart. Being a part of RLN has given me the ability to lock arms with others who not only love this generation, but also believe in this generation. I’ve had the pleasure of learning how to navigate through some of the most difficult seasons in ministry from leaders and pastors in this network that have been on this journey for years. I believe that by being in this group, it has not only equipped me but it has given me the wisdom and knowledge that can equip a generation to shake the face of the earth for God. Together, we can raise up warriors that will change history and impact generations to come. RLN has given me a home to turn to for support, answers, and most importantly, prayer. It’s impacted our ministry by allowing us to have real one on one conversations with others who have faced the same adversities and it’s helped propel us to the next level unapologetically. It’s a group that I now call family and one that I am so blessed to be a part of.
