From the palms to the Poconos: a moonlighter’s journey to the ministry.

For the last several years, the persistent call on my life has been to spend and be spent for Christ. I have rarely done this vocationally, only volitionally and voluntarily, as the gospel has become increasingly precious to me. This has also taken a number of varying forms throughout the years, with mostly me divvying up my time between working a job to provide for my family, involving myself in ministry leadership in some capacity, pursuing my passion for the kingdom, and being a family-oriented father and husband. This multifaceted endeavor has never been an easy one, with my passions and responsibilities being pulled in opposite directions, between what I know God has called me to do and what I know I need to do right now as I sit in the “waiting room” of pastoral ministry.
