This is funny. This does happen all too often. I know that there are churches out there that will not use someone unless you have been in church for more than 6 months. Also if you fall you have to wait 1 year. So it is a weird situation. I am of the mind that if a season saint falls they know what they are doing is wrong so often times the conviction is greater. If a person loses their awe of God then it can cause them to fall and no length of time is appropriate to wait before returning to a ministry. The lose of awe can happen to seasoned saints and infant saints too. Stay in awe and a person probably won't fall and if they do they will have conviction set it and they will make it right, at least this is what I have seen.
