The Army has set up a system where every 3-4 years they move everyone around. I was once told that this was to keep people moving forward and progressing, while affording them the opportunity to do different things. Layered on top of this is the job rotation at each assignment where, at least until the Lieutenant Colonel/ Sergeant Major rank, you hold different positions at each duty station. This allows for a more well rounded Soldier, and constantly presents you with new challenges.
I think elements of this system would be great if applied to Christian life. Maybe it already exists, but I have to ask myself when was the last time I was really challenged in my Christian faith. Have I become stagnant because there is nothing pushing me to keep moving forward and progressing? That is part of what this site is all about, to keep me focused and challenge me to view the circumstances of my life through the lens of Christianity. What's moving you forward?
