The discussion:
Lots of intersections – Martin and Sallie recap the recent Staff Minister Conference and the various discussion they led for the multi-talented, multi-vocational audience. It’s neat to see how technology is a thread which crosses over the variety of ministry paths in which Staff Ministers are involved.
