ministry

Ok, it's 03:28am. You should know that I'm a night owl. My creative juices are on full blast once it's been dark a couple of hours. It's not healthy and I probably don't have the best sleep pattern, but that just the way it is and why I'm updating my blog in the middle of the night.

I've got big stuff happening at the moment. My dream since the beginning of sixth year (when my Christian walk really got going) has been to work full-time in Christian ministry and I think now I'm starting to realise how focused my life is in that direction.
As many of you guys will have heard by now, I'm doing an apprenticeship in City Gates for this year. What this means is this: I'll be continuing my work in Gap while also increasing it and developing it further; I'll be working under my pastor, Paul Dempsey and regularly meeting him to review, study, etc and also I'm for the first-time being paid for my ministry.

This doesn't mean I can quit my part-time job (not being paid that much) but it does mean that I work only one day a week in Zumo and dedicate the rest of my time to college and ministry,

Also, I'm back at college this week. I'm still studying for my Applied Theology Certificate part-time in IBI, so I'm in there every Wednesday. Really looking forward to going back. For the next few months, I'm studying Bible Theology and Bible Interpretation which are both foundational for my study, my ministry and my personal understanding.

I'm got some ideas for how I'd like to develop the ministry I'm working with, but I'll reserve posting about them until they're a bit better thought out.
