Whoever aspires to be an overseer desires a noble task

The Apostle Paul encouraged leaders in the Early Church with this trustworthy saying.

Go for it

To become a full-time minister in The Salvation Army, all leaders need to be first and foremost involved in the life of their Corps or Mission Expression. Building on that foundation, there are many things to discuss, learn about, and reflect on.

All ministry is done in community

Jesus gathered his disciples into a community where they could grow and learn together.

Likewise, when we sense God’s calling, there’s a lot to pray about, consider, test, and explore —  and we have found that’s best done in community as well.

What if there was a way to explore the mysteries of calling in a life-giving way?
