R...Jack, thanks for posting your thoughts on this.<br /><br />Recently, I have been thinking about my own ordination by the church where I previously worked. The process there was much different than it is within the UMC, and ordination was something that was forced upon me (for financial reasons, of all things). Suffice it to say, the way the process was handled lead to a bit of disenfranchisement toward the concept.<br /><br />I look forward to reading your series on the topic. Heck, maybe we could even sit down and talk it sometime.Brandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08016244607271119185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8394990294066479321.post-7388104996211063182012-06-28T10:55:19.234-05:002012-06-28T10:55:19.234-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Brandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08016244607271119185noreply@blogger.com
