On Episode #3 we sit down with Derek Griffon to pick his brain!

1.How did you know you were called to ministry?
2.You read a lot of books! What would you say are the top three ministry books you have read and why?
3.What resources do you typically use when writing a sermon and what does that process look like for you?
4.Tell us a little of your ministry context at your church because y’all are set up slightly different than most churches. Your big service for students is on a Sunday night. How did that come about and do you see that being more beneficial rather than a Wednesday?
5.You often have the opportunity to speak at different retreats, DNows, and camps, I believe because of your ability to give a clear and impactful invitation. How would you advise someone who is either just getting started preaching or someone who has been preaching a while to give a clear invitation that is not manipulative?
