FYM- Find Your Ministry

I love hearing about different ministries. I think there are so many different types of people that need to be reached in this world and having such a diverse mindset towards ministry is great. One of the newest ministries at Bush Memorial Baptist is "F.A.I.T.H. Riders". It's a motorcycle ministry that shares the Gospel with those that ride bikes right where they are. I love that this ministry strives to share that common ground with people and use it for God's glory. It's really cool. I also think it's neat because it's something that I have no experience in and quite honestly, have no desire to do... BUT there are believers out there who love to ride and want to use that passion for God. Ah, I just love it. :)

Back in college, I was involved with the Baptist Campus Ministries. If you know me I have a passion for music and I just love to dance and have a good time. Through the help of my friend Melodye, who was the same way, we decided to use that passion for God's glory. So, we signed the BCM up for the Step Show. That's right.. BCM at the Step Show. We decided to take some fun Christian hiphop music and choreograph the routine in hopes that we might share the Gospel in this unique way. It actually turned out really well. Not only did we have a BLAST doing it, but a lot of people came up to us afterwards asking about our music we used. :) Very cool.

But I digress.. I think the whole point of the blog post is to encourage you to find your unique ministry and jump on it. God has given you unique passions and talents for a reason. Don't count them out. Do you like to knit? Well, maybe you can start a small group that gets together and knits and talks about scripture during that time. Do you like to do yard work? Well, I can't imagine why BUT maybe you can start a ministry at your church that helps others with yard work who can't so it themselves. Do you like to ride motorcycles? Well, check out F.A.I.T.H. Riders. Do you like hiphop music and like to dance? Well, check out the videos below.. and try not to laugh!
