Calling
I was in the airport and found myself talking to a business executive once, and he dropped a line that stuck with me. Once he learned that I was a bivocational pastor, and in ministry for the outcome and not the income, He said shepherds in the ancient world were the bottom of the barrel, basically the janitors of their day.

Yes, Christmas morning looked and felt a little different, but we had […]
