from Before you plant a church
For the love of Christ controls us,
because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have
died; and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for
themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised. — 2
Corinthians 5:14–15
The call to vocational ministry is a
true joy and privilege. God calls us in various ways and it often takes time to
think through, process, and discern. There are often great cost and sacrifice
that go along with a calling that shouldn’t be taken lightly. For some people,
they mistake the apathy in their current life situation as a sign that they should
do vocational ministry, but this often ends badly for the individual and for
those whom they exercise their calling on.

Isaiah’s
Commission

Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go
for Us?” Then I said, “Here am I. Send me!”
