The Road Less Traveled

Every journey begins with a simple question: Which road will I take today?

Sami Wilson: Kentucky, United States; I am a preacher girl. In 1998 I entered full-time ministry. This ministry journey has taken me all kinds of places. I’ve served as youth minister, associate minister, and campus minister. I’ve worked with senior adults, teenagers, college students, and children. But the deepest calling of my life has been to the very ordinary job of being a mom. In 2011 God moved me out of full-time minsitry and into a place where I could give my whole heart to mothering three very active boys. But I'm still the preacher girl. Over the last few years God opened a door that led me to a ministry of preaching to pre-schoolers. Each week I share God's Word in the most lively way possible. And it often feels like all those other years of experience have been preparing me for this. So I am laboring in the fields of my own family and among the smallest of the small. I am still the preacher girl who sees God’s WORD alive in every bush. It’s just that following those burning bushes have taken me on a much less traveled road. Welcome to the journey. It is certainly joyful, kind of messy, a little outrageous, and definitely full of Grace.
