In July, we asked you why you initially got involved in ministry. We defined ministry as any type of service (paid or volunteer) you engage in through your church, a parachurch organization, a civic organization, or individually. We also posted the question on our Facebook page, BestMinistryPractices, and on Twitter, @CSBestPractices.
Here are the results:
35% “” Someone asked or influenced me
32.5% “” A direct calling from God (like Moses in Exodus 3)
20% “” I sensed a need to use my particular spiritual gifts and/or talents
10% “” I responded to a specific need (the need was the call)
2.5% “” Other
