Real Ministry is Personal

Real ministry is not built on polished content... it is built when we are willing to share our very selves.

In this roadside reflection episode, Kara finally shares what Fred and her recent writing project has been (with Ascension Press) and reflects on a personal passage from St. Paul in 1 Thessalonians 2:8–9:

“So, being affectionately desirous of you, we were ready to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves…”

This conversation dives into vulnerability, discipleship, authentic ministry, loving others even when it is difficult, and what it means to hope for others.

Also, the audio quality is a little different this episode. Life and family obligations have made studio recording difficult lately, so I pray this “roadside reflections” is okay! Enjoy some Brother Francis and Veggie Tales in the background.
