Hi Jaydin,

I'm not a Preacher, I'm a woman after all.... "roll eyes", but,

I do have some family members who are.

I have no doubt that God truly lets a person know when He
calls them.

I'm sure you have prayed earnestly and have confided in your
Pastor.

Continue to pray and fast. I will help you pray.

May God use you mightily in these last days.

Re: Anybody got advice on being called to preach

Those that are called to preach...... do.

Those that aren't don't.

Pretty simple.

Re: Anybody got advice on being called to preach

My Husband, Retired Pastor, always told our sons if you can get out of being a preacher, do so but if God calls you, obey Him. It definitely is not an easy life. They have seen their father's ministry and I guess God did not call them to preach. Both in church and support their church in finances and I think both are elders. Both successful in their job profession. He has blessed them both. Both have good families - all involved in church and "helps" ministry. LOL

Sure it’s simple.

But what fun is simple?

For some reason we feel compelled to take the simple, and make it complex. Then we can make it exclusive. Because, who wants to be a part of something that is open to whosoever will? How can we take pride in something that is available to everyone?

Re: Anybody got advice on being called to preach

People called will know they are called. You know that you know.

And a way to tell is if their preaching causes people to get incredibly blessed and strongly impacted with the message. It's easy to tell when someone is just wanting to be nice and say the preaching was good, as opposed to the same person being tremendously affected and reaching out to God as a result.

If not you are not ready. Continue seeking God. Pulpit Preachers are a dime a dozen. Do you witness to those around you? Do any street ministry?

This is more exciting than to preach to other believers safe within the walls of a Church building.
Says the guy who has been sitting in a trailer since 1978, and does the lionshare of his "preaching" on line.

Coming to the internet and asking how do you know if your called to preach?

Is a great indicator you are not.

Oh, and Mike, obviously the asker of the question is asking about pulpit ministry. You always have to make it about Hippy Jesus. sandals, burlap bag vest, and tie dye shirt.
