Discerning the Call to Ministry
Dr. Mohler offers some useful advice to discerning whether a person has been called to the ministry.

This is almost too amazing to be true. "Twins save mom's life by kicking tumor loose from cervix."

Re the Mohler article - what i find interesting here is that it is taken as normal - taught as fact. Is it so clear cut though? Is this what scripture teaches?
So far as I am aware, within scripture a “call” or “calling” applies to our conversion, and not a subsequent event in which a person is required to change their job. Is this right?
I think I have a gift for teaching (others do too) and I’m heading in the ministry direction, but I have never “recieved the call” in the way Mohler describes. As it stands, my understanding from scirpture doesn’t impress upon me the need for a calling like this, but should someone be able to show me a verse where it is clear that I ought to have recieved a call, then I’ll have to rethink my future!!
Thanks,
Rich
