Here I Am, Lord!: A Minister Reflects On Her Calling

Here I Am, Lord! is a memoir of ministry as seen through the eyes of a novice minister in the field, feeling her way, making mistakes, and repeatedly calling on God's guidance and support. It is also a reflection on ministry, on where the calling for it comes from, and why it persists so relentlessly despite limited material rewards and un-measurable successes. Why are so many of us drawn to this work? Ministry is more than a job. Ministry is pure calling, and it's done by all kinds of people in all kinds of venues-churches, yes, but also clinics, classrooms, even beauty salons. Wherever there is a deep desire in the heart to make a difference for someone, to share some humor and light, and to offer up a little encouragement so another's way might go easier, you will find a minister at work in the world. If you are one of them, this book is for you.
