Guidance from the Board of Ordained Ministry

Two weeks ago, I went before the Board of Ordained Ministry for my ordination interview. After all the questions that they had for me, I had the opportunity to ask,

"What advice do you have for someone who is in his fourth year of ministry?"

I received some great responses.

• Be open - You may use your strengths and weaknesses in ways that you would not have guessed.

• Ministry will change.

• God is not done with our church and you are part of the evidence of that.

I appreciate the wisdom of the board of ordained ministry
