Abstract

Part of the call to Christian discipleship is to go both deep and wide to discover the pain and hope of our lives and of the world, well beyond the limits of our own temperaments, inclinations and passions, and to become more than we are now. This is especially true for those of us called to the office of ordained ministry. In so doing, we will learn to depend on unlikely friendships—friendships that challenge and sustain us as we venture into the depths of our own lives as well as the breadth of the world that is God’s good creation.
