yes.

I accepted a job offer today. And as I did, I felt a tiny tug--it's not in "ministry." It broke my heart until something else broke. A light. The realization that I am now more free to do "ministry" than I've maybe ever been.

I'm redeemed. I've got everything I ever needed to "do ministry."

Something about realizing that I don't need to work in a church, or a denomination, or a "ministry" to do ministry set me free. Reminded me why I said yes to Christ to begin with. Brought me back to that overwhelming love for God that has brought me so far.

And in that grace, I find the willingness to do things I thought I wouldn't do a week ago.

Like walking. Forward. "In ministry."
