I seem to always be relaying things I've read from Andrew Jones. I caught this - I think from his 2002 archives... His definition of ministry includes:
1. Telling stories
2. Throwing parties
3. Making friends
4. Giving gifts.
I don't know anything he said other than these four points, but I think they are GREAT. I want to concentrate on these things me-self. I have to admit, I'm not a good story-teller. I preach from a manuscript because I don't think on my feet very well; I can tend to be a bit shy - so throwing parties is a challenge; as is making friends. I like giving gifts... but don't have a lot of money. So... now that I've got my excuses... let's get started! :)
I think there is a lot to be said for these four things in living in the way of Jesus though. I am not going to let my shortcomings discourage me from pursuing them. Thanks for the advice, Andrew.
Peace. Revolution.
