Postlude
It has been an interesting life being a minister of religion. The twelve facets of my expanding ministry have all enlarged my capacities and competencies. They have all had freedom, while in ministry to God, in proclaiming the Word and in caring for people.
Traditionally, theology was the ‘Queen of the sciences’ and at graduations at Universities like Oxford, the Doctors of Divinity lead the procession in their scarlet robes. I was reminded of this as I wrote recently and as I walked in with the academics, fellows, and graduates of our Wesley Institute of Ministry and the Arts, to give the graduation address.
Anything learnt in this life and offered to God for His service, can be used by Him. May the dodecahedron shape of my expanded ministry be of encouragement to others to offer their interests and talents to God, to allow Him to expand them.
