ALUMNI TESTIMONIALS
Hear how the SALLT Cohort Experience has impacted some of our Alumni.
“my faith should drive everything I do as a Kingdom leader”
"Before SALLT, I was pursuing personal growth and wanted to make a difference for others around me, but I didn't understand how my faith worked alongside those efforts. Not only did my SALLT experience ignite and transform my relationship with God, but it provided much-needed context to how my faith should drive everything I do as a Kingdom leader - in my family, my profession, and my community."
Jantzen (S19) | Strategic/Executive Coach | Emerge Consulting LLC
“rich prayer filled Christian network outside of my sphere of education “
“SALLT gave me a Christian connection far, wide, and broad that I never had. It gave me a rich prayer filled Christian network outside of my sphere of education at the time. I think SALLT deserves full credit for a renewed appreciation and sense of calling to this- that a city is worth loving both as is individuals and as an integrated whole that should be addressed prayerfully, strategically, and lovingly at every level.”
Nathan Carr (S3) | Founder, President, and Partner | Commonplace Books
“resources to help me continue the work God has called me to”
“One way SALLT has impacted my leadership is to learn how to steward my alone time well with God so I can know His voice and heart in the spaces I’m called to be His light. As a transplant to the city, SALLT has provided like-minded friendship, counsel, and resources to help me continue the work God has called me to.”
Kimberly Mackall (S24) | Senior Manager | CSAA Insurance Group
“advocated with me for things in this community.”
“Because of SALLT, I have relationships that I still have many years later, and those relationships are important to me because they are people with different perspectives that have advocated with me for things in this community.”
Mary Myrick (S4) | Founder and President | Public Strategies
“to be in a room filled with faithful people”
“My SALLT class experience was awesome. It was just so encouraging to be in a room filled with faithful people that were just trying to steward their different passions, strengths, gifts, struggles, and whatever life experience they had, and to do it for the glory of God and the good of others. Still today, a prayer of mine is to be the salt and light to the city. I love the extra unified focus on Oklahoma City, I think we have a great city.”
Jeff Ragan (S13) | Founder and CEO | KiZE Concepts
“awakened me to my responsibility”
“The best part of SALLT is being surrounded by like-minded leaders enthusiastically involved in city transformation. My SALLT experience awakened me to my responsibility as a Christ-follower. My identity is found in Christ, and I want to please Him by living out my faith each and every day. He calls me by name to be salt and light in a dark world, and to love others the way He loves them.”
Estela Hernandez (S12) | Field Representative | US Rep James Lankford
“ wrestling with the same burden as I was”
“I’ve struggled with really connecting deeply with other believers. I have a burden for helping change culture and impacting the city at large. Most circles I’m in don’t talk about these things. My first day meeting my SALLT class was a breath of fresh air. They were all leaders who loved Jesus and were wrestling with the same burden as I was. These were my people.”
Mike Hoang (9) | Owner | KM Communities
