I am a troublemaker.
I shake things up.
I wake people up.
I make people see where their hearts lie.
According to JR Woodward, a classmate of my husband's, there are 5 " equippers" that are a part of any church, one of which is the prophet.
"They are basically the conscience of the church. They help us come into the presence if God and lead us to fight for justice on behalf of the oppressed. They question the status quo and lay our hearts bare before the living God. prophets disrupt our lives for the good of the Kingdom and they are easily despised."
I am she.
A wife. a mother. A pastor's wife. Above all, a Christ follower.
