Why this page exists
Servlead is named for servant leadership, the leadership Jesus modeled: lead by serving. He’s the perfect servant leader.
My mission is to represent Christ in the marketplace. My faith isn’t a marketing angle. It’s how I work.
So here’s my story, short and plain.
How I came to Christ
I grew up in India in a Christian home. My parents both grew up Hindu, and each came to know the Lord through their own experience. My dad shared scripture with me when I sat, slept and went out.
From the outside I was a so-called “good” kid. Inwardly, I loved sin.
When I was 19, at a retreat, I decided to watch Holy Communion from a distance. The pastor wouldn’t even let me do that. He drove me away like a stray dog.
I was really mad at him. But honestly, that helped me seek the Lord more that evening.
That night I spent time with the Lord in an open field at the camp, crying out to Him to make me part of His fold. I repented of my sins and slept through the night there in the field. I had a dream where my burdens and sins were lifted away.
I had a peace I couldn’t explain. And the evidence of my salvation was that I hated sin for the first time in my life.
He has been faithful
Ever since, there have been lots of ups and downs. Christ brought me through it all.
I came to the US for my master’s. Then I lost a job. There were visa deadlines, and seasons when I didn’t know what tomorrow held. My parents were always clear that I shouldn’t find deceptive ways to stay. So I stood for truth and conscience, even when it looked like I’d be going home.
At every turn, God came to my rescue. Even when I was unfaithful, He was faithful.
I had my own struggles too, including lust. That’s behind me now, and it’s like living a new life. By God’s grace, I haven’t struggled with lust in years. If you ever want the longer story, I’m glad to share it one-on-one.
What I’d rather you see is the last 18 years of His work in me.
What drives me now
My goal is to live for Him, nothing else, and to represent Him every day.
“If you have run with the footmen, and they have wearied you, Then how can you contend with horses?”
To me, that means buckle up, run, and live for Him every day.
“Is there any god who can compare with our God? Then where is the diligence, the dedication, the determination of His people?”
Growing in Christ is co-laboring with Him. I’m set apart for Him, and He’s the one who sanctifies me. One day I’ll go to Him and spend eternity with Him.
Until then, I don’t have to worry about bills or the hustle. Christ meets all my needs. I can live free, like a bird, because God takes care of me.
“Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.”
How it shows up in my work
Servant leadership means being willing to get dirty and solve things, communicating clearly to anyone, and always being willing to serve and go the extra mile.
In my work, that looks like honest numbers. A straight answer, even when the answer isn’t me. No pressure. If you’re not a fit, I’ll tell you, kindly. And I lead by serving.
“And what does the Lord require of you But to do justly, To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God?”
That’s the standard I hold myself to.
