**4 Steps for Testing the "Call" to Ministry**
Many new believers have questions about what it means to live as a Christian in the context of a local church, and pastors are looking for resources to pass along to their congregations to help them think biblically about the Christian life. Created in partnership with 9Marks, Church Questions is a series that seeks to provide ordinary Christians with sound and accessible biblical teaching by answering common questions Christians have about church life. Each booklet offers biblical answers and practical applications with the goal of nurturing healthy church practice and commitment.
In this addition to the series, pastor Brad Wheeler addresses the shortcomings of the word "calling" when talking with aspiring pastors about their desire to pursue ministry. Explaining why the idea of calling is both unbiblical and even unhelpful, Wheeler suggests a 4-part process as a better alternative-cultivate godly *ambition*, display godly *attributes*, develop an *aptitude* for teaching and discipleship, and receive the *affirmation* of a local church. Written from personal experience, this short book is designed to encourage men trying to discern their "next steps" to pastoral ministry.
