Tim wraps up this first year of Navigate talking to Dr. Sam Huddleston about cultivating honor in the places we live and serve as leaders.While there are many components to healthy culture, honor is certainly an important one which often gets neglected in the rush to get things done. Discover how cultivating a culture of honor can transform your relationships and create an atmosphere where ministry can flourish.Bio:Dr. Samuel Huddleston, Assistant Superintendent of the Northern California and Nevada District Assemblies of God assists in giving oversight to over 430 churches.  He also served as the founding pastor of Lighthouse Covenant Fellowship in Benicia, California from 1993 to 2004, a church that was started in his living room.  He served as the lead Pastor for 11 ½ years until he was elected to his present position. Graduating in 1980 from Bethany College in Santa Cruz, CA, Samuel and his wife Linda moved to San Rafael, California, where he attended Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary.  Sensing a call to youth ministry, Samuel accepted a position at Church on the Hill in Vallejo, California, where he served from 1981 to 1988 under Pastor Terry Inman.  While there, Pastor Inman encouraged Samuel further his education, and he subsequently enrolled at Azusa Pacific University, eventually earning his Masters Degree in Marriage Family and Child Counseling.That educational experience also helped Samuel to finally understand his troubled childhood and what had driven him, years earlier as a reckless teenager, to be involved in a crime that had cost him five years of his life in prison. While incarcerated, Samuel surrendered his life to Christ and learned about God’s unconditional love. His autobiography, Five Years to Life, has inspired people across America and throughout the world, giving them hope for a new beginning.  Samuel has shared his testimony with thousands – including, government officials, businessmen, colleges, high schools, and  prison inmates – reminding them not only with words but also with his very presence, that God has the power to put broken lives and broken relationships back together again. Before entering the pastorate in Benicia, Samuel was appointed Executive Director of Match Two Prisoner Outreach, at the time was the largest and most successful prison visitation program in the nation, which matches adult inmates and wards (youth) with outside volunteer visitors.  Serving from 1988 to 1994, Samuel Huddleston remains the only former prisoner to ever lead a California Department of Corrections program.For 2 ½ years after M-2, during the time he was pastoring Samuel returned to his alma mater to serve as Dean of Students at Bethany University under Dr. Everett Wilson.  It was while serving under Dr. Wilson that Samuel decided to continue his education at Regent University in Virginia Beach, Virginia.In May 2006 Samuel received his Doctorate of Ministry degree from Regent, with his wife of 30 years, parents, children, and grandbabies in attendance. Samuel and Linda reside in Rancho Cordova, CA near their three children: Royce, Andre, and Ericka.  They have thirteen grandchildren.Resources:Five Years to Life, by Dr. Samuel Huddleston, Available on AmazonSupport the showThanks for listening in!
