About my junior year in college I got the desire, the strong desire, to begin training for the ministry. I rejected that urge thinking I would miss out and instead chose b-school a cushy consulting gig and then equities trading (NO I'm not responsible for the current mess, thank you very much).<br/><br/>I realize now, at the tender age of 28, after reconnecting with my Bible and Christians like yourself that what I missed most was in the path I did not take. <br/><br/>rc Trey, I’m new to the blog, but I like your style!

I've been trying to talk him out of it. I feel a little bad for it, but I've shielded my kids from a lot of the stuff that I've had to endure as a minister. Unless we see some changes in the "profession" of ministry, the shortage of good ministers will only increase. I’ve got a son who is convinced he’s going to be a minister.
