Profitable for me personally, and the saints i loved. Helping me as a young, self-conscious kid to mature. Challenging me to study the word until i was able to speak it to others, and praying to the Lord until i found inspiration and the anointing of the Spirit.

I will always treasure that entire dynamic. It had nothing to do with some remote headquarters. It was all together wrapped with me, the Bible, the Lord, and my local audience.

And those brothers and sisters around me, who went through the same labor dynamic, were tremendously beneficial to my learning, growth, and encouragement.
