Looking for some practical ministry advice here. A church has extended a call to my husband come on as their pastor and we are in the middle of discerning the Lord's will. There is nothing apparently difficult about the situation but haven't yet felt a "spark" or anything to propel us forward other than he is currently underemployed working a secular job and is not currently using his gifting in the church. We've been praying that God would direct him to a pastorate in a certain geographic area and this opportunity has opened up. Still we're uncertain.
So my question is this (benefiting from your combined years of experience): when, how, why, what should be the compelling reasons to accept a call to a church? what would keep you from accepting?
