Because here’s the thing: each of us is called. We each have a calling, we are each created and trained and taught formally or by experience for something, it could be a talent, a gift, a lesson hard earned that might be a calling. And the amazing thing about being congregational, is that we’re in this together. This isn’t my church, but yours. But it means that the responsibility of living this church’s ministry in the world doesn’t fall just on your pastor, but is shared. We are the leaders of this community. We are empowered to live fully into the ministry to which we are called. So that means, maybe you’re not called to leadership of climbing on the roof, maybe it’s teaching, feeding, connecting community, reaching out to friends or strangers, being a welcome, protesting, advocating, maybe it’s caring for the garden or praying for our children. It doesn’t matter, that’s where you lead.
