Ron Shannon

Where I’m from: Bryan, Ohio

Why I became a fellowlaborer: I saw that the program will help me grow closer to God, much better than I could just working on my own.

Coolest part of being a fellowlaborer: The constant fellowship with other believers.

Music style: Christian metal, with bands like War of Ages and Nodes of Ranvier

Favorite T.V. show: Firefly

Favorite quote: It’s from the song “Theocracy” by the band Theocracy: “For if I am consumed with my own cares/ What right will I have to speak the words ‘The Kingdom come’?/ And if I am consumed with my own will/ What right to pray ‘Thy will be done’?”

Favorite Scripture: I Corinthians 8:2 - “And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know” and Proverbs 17:27- “He that hath knowledge spareth his words, and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit” and Romans 15:1 - “We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves”.
