The word ordain comes from the word order.\u00a0 That’s what it means.\u00a0 It can be like an order that a boss gives a worker or like putting things in alphabetical order.\u00a0 When a church ordains a pastor.\u00a0 They do a little of both.\u00a0 That’s what happened to me.\u00a0 My church made me a part of the leadership team along with other elders and deacons.\u00a0 With a team committed to serving God with wisdom and humility the things that get done and the decisions that get made will be done with order and not disorder.\u00a0 I also got orders from my Boss to step into this role and to serve the people of God’s church.\u00a0 So I’m taking my orders to teach and to serve.\u00a0 This talk is just a response to being assigned this new role.<\/p>\n
But a pastor is just 1 role in the church.\u00a0 Everybody in the church is supposed to be using their gifts to serve God as a team.\u00a0 So what does it mean to serve God?\u00a0 And how should we look at our own role as part of this team?<\/p>\n
