So in a couple of hours I’ll have the honor to marry my pastor, Derek and future wife Miranda, and am looking forward to this ceremony. When Derek first ask me to marry them I did not know what to say, because in one hand the Bible does not give clear instructions about marriage, because after all Christ is really the one bringing these two together. On the other hand, I also figured that if Christ has mandated that we lead people to Him (through His Spirit) and baptize them; and even notified us that we could even perform greater miracles than He did. So why not partake in leading the unity of a marriage ceremony?

I find it amazing how much we all in leadership staff are learning about ministry because really we do not have much experience but yet Christ has set us in this role and is teaching us to not be intimidated. Basically, to boast, as Derek preached on last Sunday, on the power of Christ’s sacrifice at the Cross. For the reason that is not easy being called “pastor” and having or being responsible for spiritual care of a number of persons. But yet we delight in fulfilling the call Christ has given us. And find joy in building Christ center fellowship with the amazing people He keeps bringing to His church.
