I have had the heart to pray the same thing for full time ministers also! <br />And please don't believe that our church requires program participation. They don't! I see in the pastoral staff that they do minister to people, rather than direct programs. I am blessed by our church! I just wanted to say that there is another place for maturing - home. :) We are grateful to participate in a church small group. And we love that we can do it together, too. :)Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00616238682696645579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1474479852287201750.post-61324855967637481522012-06-12T20:03:29.893-07:002012-06-12T20:03:29.893-07:00right on Erin, I agree!

I get a bit worried when chu...yes! this is so true. I get a bit worried when churches have so many different programs that you're somehow expected to be at every one. But then you're also being told to put God and family first. How are both done?! <br /><br />We do love our Community Group, but we mostly love that we get to go together {and soon we'll be hosting it again in our home}. Our whole family goes. Not just Jason and not just me. I love the opportunities to minister and to be ministered to. But However, I'm glad its not *required*. I guess for me when things are going to be required, you better show me book, chapter and verse before I sign up. <br />You know me ;-) <br /><br />You're so right though - these types of things need to be in our home first, before we can be effective and serving in God's Kingdom outside the home. This makes me realize I need to pray for full time Pastors and counselors way more than I do!Stefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06314577454372964927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1474479852287201750.post-29669695744372077492012-06-12T19:19:36.880-07:002012-06-12T19:19:36.880-07:00Beautiful!!!! <3Beautiful!!!! <3Mrs. Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07167732479027498107noreply@blogger.com
