I am a minister

Johnny Laird shared this video from Kroc Church – a Salvation Army community in San Diego

I shared this over on Simplechurchipedia.com and thought it was worthy of a share here as well.

What comes to mind when you watch it?

I don’t like the statement, “I am not a pastor – but I am a minister” as someone puts it in the video… I know what they’re referring to – but personally I prefer to see them one in the same.

And prefer to believe that we’re all pastors and ministers to our spheres of influence.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if all believers saw themselves as “Priests in the hood” who were actually living this out — being the Body of Christ to their sphere of influence?

What do you think?
