Having Fun in Ministry
There is so much in ministry that can get you down. Whether it is challenging students, difficult working with other staffers, budget constraints or just the countless spiritual attacks Satan comes after you with, ministry can be tough.
That is why you have to have a little fun with it every now and then. I did this on Wednesday when I met up with my Associate Pastor, Mark Seager and a friend of ours. I did the whole meeting in this outfit and our friend, Blake, said he had a hard time listening to my critique of his talk without laughing at me constantly.
Donny was a run-on character I created for our youth to sell a few games. He was warmly received by the youth so I figured I would push the envelope a bit and take him into the wild.
TAKE A MINUTE and
- have some fun in ministry. Don’t get bogged down with the craziness without being a little crazy yourself.
- share a story (or video) of you doing something fun in ministry. It’s always a little encouraging to see that we don’t take ourselves to seriously 🙂
I was hoping that you would wreak havoc on the Starbuck's, break some things, spill on the floor, insult some people, and get thrown out and stuff . . . you know like youth ministry and the church.
Funny stuff Tom!
Nice video. I'll have to not play the straight laced friend next time so I can make the cut!
