The Fish Symbol
Mark 1:17: "Come, follow me, and I will make you fishers of men."
The fish symbol was used by Christians as a type of password during times of persecution by the
Roman government. If two strangers met and were unsure whether each other was a Christian, one
would draw an arc in the earth: ). If the other were a Christian, they would complete the
symbol with a reverse arc: (), forming the outline of a fish.
Nashville I.T. operates on Christian values and principles. We don’t say this to attract clients.
Our commitment is to live and practice Christian values and principles in everything we say and
do. You are encouraged to contact our executive team at info@nashvilleit.com
if we ever fail to meet your expectations.
Operating on Christian values doesn’t mean we will be perfect in everything we do.
It means we will ask for and seek your forgiveness when we make a mistake. And, yes, we are human
and we do make mistakes. That’s what Christianity is about, anyway - forgiveness.

From the Christian Executive Officers Fellowship
Christian Leadership Perspective
Before God and for the benefit of my family and the business to which God has called me, I
affirm the principles below and pledge to fulfill them in my daily lifestyle.
The Christian Executive Officer:
- Believes Jesus Christ is the Son of God and has personally accepted His gift of salvation.
- Believes the Bible is God’s inspired revelation to man and endeavors to live in obedience
to its principles and commands.
- Is a member in good standing of a local church and supports the work of Christ through the
church by time, talents and financial resources.
The Christian Executive Officer strives through the company:
- To share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with its employees and also its customers, competitors,
suppliers, and other business contacts.
- To take an active part in the development of the spiritual life and Christian testimony of
its employees.
- To operate in accordance with the commands and principles of Scripture in dealing with its
finances, in handling its personnel, and in administering its policies.
- To regularly give a portion of its financial and personal resources in meeting various
Christian responsibilities in accordance with Scripture. This pertains to the needs of its
employees as well as others and may be accomplished through direct gifts or through contributions
to agencies and ministries.
The Christian Executive Officer exemplifies before family and all others:
- There is one God, eternally existing in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
- The Bible is God’s written and inspired revelation to man and is the primary authority for man’s
life. Knowledge and wisdom are gained through my habit of daily study.
- The deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, death on the cross to provide
redemption, resurrection, bodily ascension into Heaven, present ministry of intercession for us, and
His return to earth in power and glory.
- The personality and deity of the Holy Spirit, His power to perform the miracle of the new birth in
unbelievers and to indwell believers, enabling them to live a Godly life.
- Man was created in the image of God and because of sin was alienated from God, that alienation can
be removed only by accepting through faith God’s gift of salvation which was made possible by Christ’s
atoning death and bodily resurrection.
- Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church and all believers are to assemble together regularly for
worship, for edification through the Scriptures, and for mutual encouragement.
- Jesus Christ commanded all believers to proclaim the Gospel throughout the world and to disciple
men of every nation. The fulfillment of that Great Commission requires that all worldly and personal
ambitions be subordinated to a total commitment to Him Who loved us and gave Himself for us.
