Full Time Ministry?
Posted : 16 Feb, 2010 07:37 PM

I was curious to see if anyone on here is in full time ministry or anticipates it one day.

If so, what ministry are you in or would you be entering.

Though I have been out for about a month due to health problems, I have been in full time ministry for three years now. Starting with prison ministry, then Evangelism, now Associate Pastor at my local Baptist Church.



Blessings,

Leon

Full Time Ministry?

Well... I'm in a part-time youth ministry right now, but I TREAT it like full-time. I just honestly don't understand how anyone can only commit PART of their life to ministry. If you can... congrats, cause I can't. lol. I plan on going into full-time ministry, but in the Methodist church, you have to be at least 5 years older than the oldest youth in your youth group to become a full-time youth minister. I'm close, but not quite there, so I'm working under another guy, which is a blessing in itself. Two heads are better than one!

I am questioning, though, what "ministry" is actually supposed to look like. Am I getting it right, or am I missing something. I'm really considering challenging America's view of the "church", not as an argument, but as an "I'm challenging you to...". I'm not quite sure what that looks like right now. I guess time will tell.

Finally... One thing I have learned while working in a church... It is a whole nother world in itself. I never knew...



In Christ
