Every successful minister goes through school. It's just a matter of whether it's in a formal educational setting with experienced instructors ready to help, or an informal one through the "school of hard knocks, " alone. I took the latter route, and I must say, if you survive, it makes a great testimony. However, I don't recommend it! The Lord led me to start Charis Bible College for the purpose of training people for the work of the ministry.
