Whether a knight, a samurai, a ninja, or a special forces sergeant, all posses a combination of practical skills and a vast knowledge of law and history. That combination creates a religious like commitment to a leader or idea.
As I start my directed path toward full time gospel ministry, the journey will involve both exhaustive study of God's Law in seminary and the development of practical skills via a Presbytery Internship. This combination will hopefully help me see just how faithful Christ has been and will be in the future.
How does being a ninja fit into this journey? At this point, my thinking is that as my knowledge grows and skills improve, I will be called serve in very different and difficult situations depending on God's faith.
It is my hope that as I walk this path, you will come along. You to can be part of falling in love with God's Law as I share the ideas from professors, pastors, and mentors. You can be exposed to much of the practical training I will receive from counselors, small group leaders, community leaders and pastors.
I hope this will not be one way but you will add through your comments on blogs and posted links. Together we will testify how the freedom found only in the Holy Spirit allow us to love with no expectations and share the Gospel in both word and deed.
Come along and discover the faith God provided for us to become a mature (ninja like) Christ Follower...
