Shut up in a church is the WORST place to win people to Christ, and the poorest position from which to preach Jesus to mortal humanity. "What I call a job, God is using as a ministry". I LOVE IT! And, isn't that so much better than, "They call it ministry, but it's really mostly a job." Love and blessings! May God pour out more and more!!

Love and blessings! May God pour out more and more!!
