I’m Grateful

Jot down the first thing that comes to your mind.

I’m grateful.

Grateful He didn’t stay on His throne.

Grateful He stepped down and walked among us.

Grateful He knows what it means to be human.

Grateful He showed us how to truly live.

Grateful He taught us to pray with purpose.

Grateful He surrendered with, “Not My will, but Yours be done.”

Grateful He carried the weight of our sin to the cross.

Grateful He rose, victorious, from the grave.

Grateful the tomb is forever empty.

Grateful He did it all—for you.

Grateful He did it all—for me.

I’m grateful.

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.
