This is so lovely Kristen. As somebody who is applying for grad school to get their MA in spiritual formation and soul care this deeply spoke to me. While I may not profit from this by the standards of the world, I know that it will be deeply enriching for me and for others. I loved your comparison to having kids, it’s such a helpful analogy.
Thank you for this, Kristen. This pastor appreciates the challenge for us to view our work rightly: as an act of care for the church, love for the Lord, and growth in walking with Jesus. Thank you for the caution against making it self-serving.

Thank you, Jenna, for sharing! Yes, obedience to the Lord never makes good worldly sense. Blessings as you continue on your journey.

Thank you, Wyman. Praise God. So much more could be said on the subject and I have more to learn from people like you. Thank you for encouraging me.
