BACKGROUND AND CALL TO MINISTRY
I was six years old when I first accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior. I do not wholly remember the night with
great detail. I remember talking with my pastor in my home and being asked questions about what I understood and
whether I knew what it all really meant. I was soon after baptized. I was very young when this occurred and did not have
much of a profound story with my initial conversion. I do know that as I got older I began to just become lukewarm in my
spiritual life. I grew up in a Christian home and went to a Christian school, so I guess I thought I had it covered, but even
though I knew and had experienced God I just did not seem to want to make my relationship with Him the main priority in
my life. As a result when I went off to college I allowed a door to open for sin to enter. I began drinking and even was
arrested one night while I was blackout drunk. During this time there were several occasions I felt God pulling me back to
Him, which is I why I feel I could never cut ties with that relationship. I got into a motorcycle wreck, but even that eye
opening as it was not enough to have me surrender to God. After that wreck a pastor/mentor said to me, "God let you live
for a reason. What was that reason?" I struggled with this question for a semester, and during the Christmas break
December of 2010, God intervened in my life. I was reading the Bible and the book Crazy Love by Francis Chan, and I felt
God burden me with the way I had been living my life. I was by myself in my living room and could not stop crying and
knelt and prayed. I could not go on without having Him as the head of my life and seeking a relationship with Him that I
had let falter for so long. There was an immediate impact and could no longer drink or smoke or do things or hangout with
the same people I used to want to. I have since been seeking the Lord and growing in this relationship never wanting to
become lukewarm or rebelling toward Him again. As I look back on it and sometimes want to determine at which point I
was saved or converted I struggle with that school of thought. I remember in high school and middle school having more
of a relationship and would have definitely called myself a Christian. Then some might ask how I could have lived in
rebellion the way I did if I had been converted at the age of six. I believe I was saved and converted when I was six. I also
believe that my level and depth of understanding was that of a six year old and grew to some extent as I did, but not
where it needed to be when I went to college. In 2010 when I was 21 I felt I reached that deeper level of understanding
about how my relationship with God was supposed to be. Though I regret the path I took to come to this understanding I
believe God was watching over me and sought to bring me back closer to Him.
I had several times in my life that I felt a call to ministry leadership and because of the state of rebellion I was in I
ignored those times. Once was through a pastor at a college ministry. I talked to him briefly after a sermon he had
preached and he got my number. He later left me a voicemail message explaining how he felt God was going to use me
and had something in store for me to do. I ignored this and wanted to keep on living my way. After a motorcycle wreck I
had a local pastor whom had been a mentor to me in high school came to me and asked questions about how I should
have died and God let me live, why was this and what for? These questions though I tried to ignore them really stuck with
me. After God intervened in my life to draw me closer to Him in 2010, in the winter of 2011 with a semester left to
graduate I felt an impression from God that I should go into ministry leadership. I wrestled with this intently and talked to
many pastors about what I felt was God calling me into ministry. After graduating with a degree in I.T. in May of 2012, I
went to my home church and began an internship and also fulfilled the role of middle school pastor under the youth
pastor. I have felt that this call has been affirmed many times and the youth pastor has given me opportunities to lead and
fulfill that calling such as leading retreats and preaching at different opportunities. I cannot describe the joy and fulfillment I
fill in this role and feel this has affirmed my call. On a mission trip to Uganda during the summer of 2012 my pastor gave
me the opportunity to preach the Gospel to the village. I felt unprepared and was very nervous, but God led me to a
passage to preach from and a passage of comfort and promise to alleviate much of the fear I had. I recognize a call has
many different meanings, but “divine call” I would define as being an impression from God that changes the
circumstances of your life and only another “divine call” should change it. I have not come to this conclusion on my own
but through reading several books on how God calls as I was afraid and confused I had misunderstood my call. Through
my conversations with pastors and the opportunity I’ve had at my church and through school I feel God has affirmed my
call many times.

I was reading the Bible and the book Crazy Love by Francis Chan, and I felt God burden me with the way I had been living my life. I was by myself in my living room and could not stop crying and knelt and prayed. I could not go on without having Him as the head of my life and seeking a relationship with Him that I had let falter for so long. There was an immediate impact and could no longer drink or smoke or do things or hangout with the same people I used to want to. I have since been seeking the Lord and growing in this relationship never wanting to become lukewarm or rebelling toward Him again. As I look back on it and sometimes want to determine at which point I was saved or converted I struggle with that school of thought. I remember in high school and middle school having more of a relationship and would have definitely called myself a Christian. Then some might ask how I could have lived in rebellion the way I did if I had been converted at the age of six. I believe I was saved and converted when I was six. I also believe that my level and depth of understanding was that of a six year old and grew to some extent as I did, but not where it needed to be when I went to college. In 2010 when I was 21 I felt I reached that deeper level of understanding about how my relationship with God was supposed to be. Though I regret the path I took to come to this understanding I believe God was watching over me and sought to bring me back closer to Him. I had several times in my life that I felt a call to ministry leadership and because of the state of rebellion I was in I ignored those times. Once was through a pastor at a college ministry. I talked to him briefly after a sermon he had preached and he got my number. He later left me a voicemail message explaining how he felt God was going to use me and had something in store for me to do. I ignored this and wanted to keep on living my way. After a motorcycle wreck I had a local pastor whom had been a mentor to me in high school came to me and asked questions about how I should have died and God let me live, why was this and what for? These questions though I tried to ignore them really stuck with me. After God intervened in my life to draw me closer to Him in 2010, in the winter of 2011 with a semester left to graduate I felt an impression from God that I should go into ministry leadership. I wrestled with this intently and talked to many pastors about what I felt was God calling me into ministry. After graduating with a degree in I.T. in May of 2012, I went to my home church and began an internship and also fulfilled the role of middle school pastor under the youth pastor. I have felt that this call has been affirmed many times and the youth pastor has given me opportunities to lead and fulfill that calling such as leading retreats and preaching at different opportunities. I cannot describe the joy and fulfillment I fill in this role and feel this has affirmed my call. On a mission trip to Uganda during the summer of 2012 my pastor gave me the opportunity to preach the Gospel to the village. I felt unprepared and was very nervous, but God led me to a passage to preach from and a passage of comfort and promise to alleviate much of the fear I had. I recognize a call has
  • 4. many different meanings, but “divine call” I would define as being an impression from God that changes the circumstances of your life and only another “divine call” should change it. I have not come to this conclusion on my own but through reading several books on how God calls as I was afraid and confused I had misunderstood my call. Through my conversations with pastors and the opportunity I’ve had at my church and through school I feel God has affirmed my call many times.
