Regi Campbell, a mentor to many and founder of Radical Mentoring went to be with the Lord a few days ago.
I first met Regi on a Souly Business weekend and he was kind enough to pour into me with a lot of truth, patience, and wisdom.
I can't put into words what Regi has meant to me in my walk and am so blessed to have had the opportunity to serve with him, and observe him. I have close friends who spent way more time in Regi's presence and being mentored by him, and my heart aches for them.
I got to watch first hand as Regi strived less and trusted more to see Radical Mentoring spread and flourish. As he let go and let God, I saw peace and freedom in his face and heard it in his voice.
I'll never forget the look on his face at the podium of the first Radical Mentoring retreat as he saw God bring men from all over the country to be spiritually fed and connected. It was a look of child-like wonder and awe, and gratitude.
Regi was the first, and one of the very few leaders who intentionally challenged his men to share their story as an opportunity to grow, AND led by example for those men by doing it himself.
Being able to serve him through memorializing his story, as well as help those he mentored share their story is a hard feeling to describe. I am just so grateful and humbled to have in some small way been woven into God's greater purpose and story lived in and through Regi's life and legacy.
As Regi offered his story from a heart of worship and thanksgiving, I offer it to you here as a testimony of God's love and faithfulness. May Regi's words encourage you and give you hope.
Thank you Regi for pouring your cup into so many of us. May the wisdom and love you shared with so many continue to connect and embolden the body of Christ, for God's glory. You served your Father's business, I trust you are now enjoying your Father's rest and joy.
