Breaking News: National Ranking Kidnapping Report!

Holy Kidnapping Batman: 

We had something very important to the Suzuki of Wichita family kidnapped yesterday.  We are very saddened by this and are working with everyone to have what is rightfully ours returned to us.  What are we talking about?  Our #1 Suzuki Automotive Retailer in the USA Ranking (We’re now in 2nd place).  It was kidnapped by a dealership in New York and we need to get it back.  They have a 2 car lead Year to Date through March.  Wichita, KS lets Rock & Roll in April and take this back!

Suzuki of Wichita Service is #1 in the USA by asking, “Would I?”

Suzuki of Wichita’s Fixed Operations (Service, Parts, and Detail) have had not only a record breaking month in volume, but also customer satisfaction as well. This is due primarily to the exemplary team of all-stars working under the leadership of John Muir, South African Rock-Star and “Godfrey” look-alike (just Google Mark Strong from the new Robin Hood). Gary Bugg, the Life-Coach and Primary Cheerleader for the dealership (or would that be Yell-Leader…?) said of the Service Department, “Under John’s direction, the Service Drive is making every effort to show customers that relationship makes the difference, and the kind of relationship we’re seeking is one that benefits the customer.”

The Service Department currently has a Year-to-date CSI (Customer Satisfaction Index) score of 982 out of a possible 1000, giving them the #1 CSI average in the USA. This is a full 80 points ahead of their District average (902), and 81 points ahead of the National Average (901). CSI surveys are received by customers for any warranty repairs offered by Suzuki. 66% of the surveys Muir and the Service Department have received have been perfect scores–1000/1000 (45 out of 68 received YTD). Scott Pitman, President and Chief Evangelist of Suzuki of Wichita, commented, “John is a breath of fresh air for our Fixed Operations. We have tried for a long time to find a perfect fit for his position, and he has been an even better fit than we had hoped. He does everything expected of him and a lot more. I have always said ‘Hire Fun People,’ and people LOVE John–He’s very fun, and that’s important because getting your car serviced or even repaired can sometimes be a ‘not fun’ experience. It can be tough to have so many happy customers in the Service Department, but the fact that their CSI scores are so high obviously means they’re doing a lot of things right.”

When asked about his personal success with Suzuki of Wichita, Muir was quick to redirect the credit to his team, saying “Most of our success this month is due to the attitudes of the guys here.” He went on to describe a new method they have been using to keep themselves motivated and looking at things from the customer’s point of view. “Would I?” asked Muir, “This is the question I have posed to my team here in relation to our service. When we are through helping a customer, I want every member of my team to ask themselves, ‘If I were that customer, Would I continue to service my vehicle here?’.”

I asked, “So have you ever heard that you look like the villain from the new Robin Hood?” After his laughter subsided, and we looked up a picture, John said in a thick South-African accent, “Wow, that’s kind of eerie. Does that mean I’m a villain?”

If we could base our answer on CSI results, the answer would be, “No.”

Is John a part-time Actor?

WALKING IN THE REIGN, INC.

Walking in The Reign, Inc. (the 501c3 that supports our efforts in Balan, Haiti and Wichita, KS) is about meeting the spiritual, physical, economic and social needs of the helpless, needy and poor.  Everything we do is Centered in Christ. Jesus met the physical and spiritual needs of those He ministered to.  He fed the multitudes and healed the crippled, blind and lame but most importantly, He gave them eternal life.

Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food.  If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it?  In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. James 2:15,16

We believe that you can’t meet the Spiritual needs without meeting the physical needs and that it would be worthless to the meet the physical needs without meeting the Spiritual needs.  That is why we seek to do both.

Walking in The Reign, Inc. is about meeting the spiritual, physical, economic and social needs of the helpless, needy and poor. Everything we do is Centered in Christ. Jesus met the physical and spiritual needs of those He ministered to.  He fed the multitudes and healed the crippled, blind and lame but most importantly, He gave them eternal life.

Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food.  If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it?  In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. – James 2:15,16

We believe that you can’t meet the Spiritual needs without meeting the physical needs and that it would be worthless to the meet the physical needs without meeting the Spiritual needs.  That is why we seek to do both.

We seek to serve those in need by providing food, shelter, clothing, education, discipleship, fun and friendship through building cross-cultural relationships which honor God.  By putting others first and helping meet their most basic needs, we earn the right to share the Gospel, the good news of eternal life in Jesus Christ.  As we express love to others we encourage them to become more like Jesus Christ.  By this, the world learns that we are his disciples.

The purpose of Walking in The Reign, Inc. is obedience to the scriptures in providing for the needs of those around us.  The scriptures are full of verses commanding us to care for those in need.  Walking in The Reign, Inc. provides the opportunity for people to live out what God has called us to do.  We match those with resources to those with needs.  We serve those in Wichita, Kansas through the ministries of Wichita Project {wichitaproject.com} and the Lady Bugg House, Inc. {ladybugghouse.com} (which is an independent 501(c)3) and  we serve those in Haiti through Balan, Haiti {balanhaiti.com}.

Walking in the Reign is a non-denominational evangelical Christian organization.

The scripture that has changed everything in our lives is Matthew 25.

“When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne.  All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.  He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.

“Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

“Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

“Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’

“They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’

“He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’

“Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

We are grateful for the many people the Lord has put in our lives.  You have no idea the impact each of you have made on our lives, nor the impact you are now making in the lives of others (by inspiring the creation of Walking in The Reign). Thank you to Evony, Norma, Donald, Donesha, Treyvon, Dayvon, Dauvon, Joshua, James, Leonestee, Tiara, Sandra, Monica, Olivia, Mariska, Sam, Andrea, Amanda, the 100′s of teen moms and dads we have been blessed to know, and our many friends in Balan, Haiti.  God used each of you in our lives as the foundation to develop Walking in The Reign.
