“I would like to encourage you to stop thinking of what you're doing as
ministry. Start realizing that your ministry is how much of a tip you
leave when you eat in a restaurant; when you leave a hotel room whether
you leave it all messed up or not; whether you flush your own toilet or
not. Your ministry is the way that you love people. And you love people
when you write something that is encouraging to them, something
challenging. You love people when you call your wife and say, 'I'm going
to be late for dinner,' instead of letting her burn the meal. You love
people when maybe you cook a meal for your wife sometime, because you
know she's really tired. Loving people - being respectful toward them -
is much more important than writing or doing music.”
