How you live as a Godly Man in your job

Tips, suggestions and examples of Servant Leadership
Books to read, movies to see
I would like for you to write these down in some form which will be collected into a bound volume of trusted wisdom for Jacob to consult after he consults God’s word as he journeys through life. This will be given to him after the ceremony. I would also like for you to have a 15 - 20 minute conversation with Jacob encompassing some (or all) of these topics as you two walk together in Deer Grove park.
Challenge Jacob to consider and make the strategic moves he needs to make to prepare him for the future (emphasis on college years)
An openness to Jacob contacting you in the future to further discuss these things.
Your prayers for God to guide and bless this activity.
