Hi Sandy,

In Ephesians 4:11-13 we are taught, "And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ; until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ."

While all Christian believers are called to share the Gospel with the world -- not all are given the same gifts. As this passage tells us, some are called as pastors, some as teachers, some as evangelists, etc., all for the building up and maturing of the body of Christ. I know that I have not been called as a pastor, nor as a street preacher -- but, through the gift of writing He has given me, I can evanglieze and teach. And, I can lead Bible studies. So, I use the gifts He has given me, thank Him for them, and do my best to follow His Great Commission.

Whether you read my writings or put me on Ignore -- I guess it all boils down to that old saying, "Different Strokes For Different Folks."

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

Bill
