Furhan Ahmad: Let's Be Neighbors Again


Listen Later

Today, we have the distinct honor to hear from someone whose purpose in life has been defined and shaped by serving others. Furhan Ahmad was born and raised in NYC, became an EMT right out of high school to then become a police officer, and finally a first-responder firefighter, where he continues to serve the city and kaleidoscope of people to this day. His character encourages me and his story flat-out inspires me. 

The way he kindly, lovingly, and boldly chooses to meet a city full of complicated people, even the ones who've hurled insults and paraded their racism in his face, challenges me. I'm so excited for you to hear his story, for you to know what he loves about a varied environment, and the beauty that can develop in a person. This man is wise and well over his 10,000 hours in the area of service and meeting others. Let's all learn a thing or two from him, shall we?
