Three Rules

In the Fire Side Chat on Monday, we learned about three rules while growing up seeking to be in ministry. They are:

1. Seize every opportunity
We should take advantage of opportunities that come our way. They may provide us with a unique way to minister to people, or provide opportunities that we will never get again.

2. Be humble and respectful
Getting upset quickly, and being frustrated easily will get you no where in ministry. It comes with enough challenges on its own to make a big deal about smaller things. Respecting your leadership and being teachable will get you a long way.

3. Listen, Observe, Learn
Opening our mouth in every situation probably won't help. We need to listen to what is going on around us, and after sifting through all the information, we should then be slow of speech and say what we need to say well.

Fire Side Chats are one of my favorite parts about Legacy, because we get to learn so much from the people who went before us.
