My first pastorate was awesome! Now that is not the way my wife Shay remembers it—but it was awesome! The sense of finding out what the Lord had called me to was exciting! Trying to fill the shoes of an awesome preacher while I was still learning to preach. The pain of watching friends leave the church and the joy watching God bring new friends into the church. Leading the church through a national disaster while trying figure out how to be a pastor…Absolutely amazing!
Everyone has a ministry. What is your ministry? How is the Lord preparing you for that ministry?
