I saw this somewhere months ago, and found the Instagram post. Steve's experience serving in his church was so similar to mine, although I didn't go as far as Steve and join the ministry. In my case it was volunteering in my church's middle school ministry. Yes, you find yourself capable of loving many more people. Suddenly you now view the parents of your students as brothers and sisters in Christ, because you are related in a common cause around their sons. You find yourself just as interested in a kid's hopes and dreams as an uncle or other relative would be. There is no doubt teachers and coaches have similar experiences around kids, but I have never been in those endeavors.
I love this guy! I've never met him but ... thank God for him.
AMAZING xxxx🙏

Serving coffee and bagels at our church is like breaking bread and sharing the cup of Christ.
