Allow me to encourage you, to stop doing marketing and calling it ministry. We have cultivated an entire generation of preachers who fien for the buzz of charisma, but never cultivate or articulate a love or compassion for the people. Our calling is NOT to be on focal point of ministry we are portals. We point , we are NOT the point. Understand i get it ... i completely get it, attractiveness is important in ministry. But allow me to uplift an idea could it be possible that we have sold folks lemons, we look good on the outside, its shiny but the ministry lacks substance. The modern church has become masterminds at producing paper thin preachers, lacking all depth of humanity.
We must dig deep and draw from a greater well of authenticity. Authenticity is not about perfection, its about finding the strength and integrity to stand in broken places. We are not perfect (well i am not) good news is you dont have to be, the charge is can you preach and declare the power of God and trust that he can hold you when you wanna fall apart.
This is the moment for ministry that is substantive and authentic.#staywoke
