Bay Area Ministers

The first Tuesday of most months several of us minister types gather at a Carrows Restaurant in Dublin to catch up on what God is doing in our various ministries and to eat a bite. We're a rather eclectic bunch in terms of ministry roles and church styles, but we do have a few things in common: a love for ministry and the Lord, roots in the restoration movement, an honest desire to be who God wants us to be. There's probably more, but those for sure.

We're mostly guys, but we are often graced with the presence of a spouse or daughter or friend, and those presences always help us be a little more thoughtful in our discussions. It always amazes me how fresh a female perspective can be... especially around a bunch of ministers.

Today was one of those Tuesdays. Our group was a bit smaller than usual today, but I came away blessed none-the-less by the rich fellowship that is part of the body of Christ. The salad and sandwich weren't half bad either.
