    If you’re in ministry you don’t always have the luxury of being able to do just what you want. Sometimes you have to give up your own desires in order to serve God in some way

    The Romance of Ministry It wasn’t fair. If it were you or me we’d be feeling so frustrated. The disciples were on a high. They’d just got back from a mission trip. They’d been preaching the gospel, casting out demons and healing people, just like Jesus. But now there were ...read more
