How young is to young ?

I once gave a Lay Minister's license to a young man when I was SO of SD.
He was a wonderful young man.....in fact, he is one of the most successful pastors in COGOP in the NW Territories.....

He had everything one needed....calling, desire, discipline, integrity, courage, .....why make him wait,.....i didn't .....and he haas proven his metal on every occassion....

While I don't always (didn't always) think it prudent to do that, he was and still is a special young man.

I will always love you Scott Lee.....you did me proud.

Oh, I forgot to tell you ....Scott Lee was 14 years old when I signed his lay minister's license.....

Never a regret......

I became the church pianist when I was 12 and my sister was leading worship ("song service") at the age of 10. My grandfather (the pastor) made us go with him early to every service and practice. He said, "God deserves our very best." What he instilled in me - the seriousness of being a leader in the church - remains.

Today, one of my greatest honors and avenue of blessing is encouraging and training young musicians and singers for the Lord's work.
