Everything Comes Together

I've been a Christian a long, long time and have found that one way God leads is through everyday things you just decide you want to do. For example, I've read books in which I was interested but not necessarily Christian. I see now that many of these books will provide a background to a future Christian teaching ministry. Books on politics, economics, history, business and all sorts of other interesting subjects. Classes I'm taking that are in our community's (and state's) senior adult program that didn't seem to have anything to do with ministry are all coming together right now. The philosophy class will be especially important since I believe I will be teaching the concepts of postmodern philosophy and how it is flooding into our churches through emergent. Now, three years ago if you told me I would be taking philosophy, much less studying it on my own, I would tell you that you were crazy.

So, what is it that you're interested in? Check with me in 10 or 20 years and tell me if that interest played a part in a future ministry for you. You might be very, very surprised. I know I am.
