Why do I like being busy? I think it makes me feel more important. I really know that if I am not busy it doesn't make me any less important but there is something about people counting on me that I really like. Speaking of really liking something. . . I really like to preach. Even if it is only a 4-5 min. snippet that sets up communion I just feel comfortable. I also like the challenge of speaking to adults and then turning right around and speaking to teens. The mental hurdles really challenge me. I know this isn't normal but it is me.
After saying all of that I don't believe those were the highlights of yesterday. That is what happened but nothing spectacular. The highlights were:
- Having 2 different people come up to me after the service and tell me that I should start my own church (strange but true. I don't know if that was a compliment or not.)
- Having a junior high kid tell me that he was challenged by my honesty
- Having a parent trust my judgment about sending her kid to camp
- Having 18 kids stay after church to practice leading worship for elementary
- Having a business guy tell me that he is going to join our Bible study and he has never read the Bible
What were your highlights yesterday? What ways do you like to see God move?

1 Response to "Ministry Monday: Sunday Highlights"My Sunday Highlight was watching a teacher 'get it.' You know, when you work with someone and finally they get the mission of working with kids. She was prepared, practiced, and knocked the ball out of the park in her time with her class.
And I also get to do the occasional offering and communion. It offers such a great perspective to do something for adults, which I love doing; and then to run to another area and do a totally different kind of talk.
It may make great Senior Pastors out of us someday...
