Key Takeaways

1) The power of discipleship was displayed in Ira’s life as he had three different lay leaders take him under their wings to mentor him after his conversion.

2) Bi-Vocational may be “trendy,” but it is not a trend. We’ve had leaders serving in a bi-vocational context for centuries. 

3) The most important decision you can make is to settle, placing your personal health and family relationships as a priority over your ministry vocation.

4) Pastors will have to come to grips with the motives behind their desire to emphasize “in-person” gatherings at the expense of ignoring online ministry potential. Our approach should be more of a hybrid model where we do the best we can in-person and online.
