Are you Excited to be in ministry?

Last week when Tim Tebow was introduced as a NY Jet he used the word excited 44 times to express his feelings on being traded to his new team.  The media had a lot of fun with it for the past week and there are even several audio and youtube mashups of the 44 times of saying the word excited.

  • So how excited are you to be in ministry?
  • And if so… do you show it?
  • Does your congregation see it in you when you see them on Sunday Mornings?
  • Do they see it when they stop by the church office during the week?
  • Do they see it in your blog posts, your tweets, your FB status updates?
  • Or do they see you not excited and just trying to earn a paycheck or have just enough students so you don’t get fired?
  • Or do they see you trying to hard and you are scaring or pushing students away with a holier than thou image?  Can they see right through your status updates?
  • Are you truly excited to be in ministry or are you just putting on a show to earn a paycheck?

Just some food for thought…
