We have explored and sought the value in pursuing change, growth, moments, dreams, and success.
Our next chapter in “The Pursuit” is the pursuit of strength.
Strength is more than physical power; it’s the resilience to face challenges, endure setbacks, and handle success.
Strength shows up when we push forward despite wanting to give up, learn from mistakes, and persist through obstacles. Each setback isn’t a defeat but a lesson, a step toward greater resilience and wisdom.
Challenges build our inner strength, revealing our true capabilities and preparing us for future battles.
Success also demands strength, requiring humility, gratitude, and the courage to inspire others while staying grounded. True strength lies in upholding our values amidst highs and lows.
Strength guides us to dream bigger, strive harder, and rise higher. Let’s celebrate and cultivate the strength within, knowing it’s our most powerful ally in this incredible journey.
Join me in this next chapter as we pursue strength in our daily lives, and also how we can live more freely and fully by tapping into the strength available to each of us through the Holy Spirit.
Be Blessed! Be Strong!
Questions to Ponder and Pursue
1. How do you find the strength to push forward in moments when you feel like giving up, and what lessons have setbacks taught you about resilience and growth?
2. In what ways can you use your successes to inspire and uplift others while remaining true to your values and grounded in humility?

Meet Todd Gordon, a seasoned educator, coach, and activities administrator who dedicated an impressive 37 years to shaping the lives of students within the realm of education. His career has taken him on a remarkable journey through nine different school districts, ranging from the intimate setting of a small school to the dynamic landscape of a large, multi-high school urban district – truly everything in between.
In 2022, Todd embarked on a new chapter, retiring from his illustrious career in education. However, retirement did not signal an end to his passion for making a positive impact in the realm of sports and activities. Todd joined BOUND, a leading sports software company, where he continues to contribute his wealth of experience and knowledge to support activity administrators and coaches.
Beyond the professional arena, Todd’s personal life is a testament to dedication and enduring love. Married to his wife, Deb, for an impressive 40 years, they have navigated life’s journey together. Their family has grown to include three married children, each on their unique paths, and six delightful grandchildren who bring joy and laughter to their lives.
Todd authored and published his first book, “The Power of One. One Word Leadership”, in 2022.
His newest project is the “The Pursuit”, and it starts with new writings on a new page on this website. Todd delves into the essence of your daily pursuit of excellence, offering insights on growth, resilience, and the power of redemption. By weaving daily Scripture insights into our exploration, we bridge the timeless with the contemporary, inviting you to reflect on leadership principles grounded in spiritual wisdom.
