Greetings from Burlington, North Carolina, USA! Hello, my name is Chad Wrenn. Currently, I am getting further proper ministry training at the Christian Leaders Institute (Learn more about online free Bible courses, Click Here).
In 1973, I was born. Since then, I grew up and have lived in this small North Carolina town. I was blessed to grow up in a Godly home. My Dad and Mom, devoted Christians, raised me to serve our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
I attended a very spiritual Baptist church not far from my home. Along with many others, the pastor invested time in me both spiritually and personally. Their teaching on the Word of our God led me to salvation in my early teens. After that, I continued going to church and serving in any way that I could.
God’s Calling
I always felt the tugging at my heart to do more! However, I was never the type of person to be in front of a crowd. I was the behind-the-scenes kind of guy. God led my family and me to Faith Christian Church. Here, I became involved with the music. Still, not one to be in front of people, I sang the songs of praise. I became a Deacon of Faith Christian so I could serve even more.
But God said I still could do more! It was like a tug of war. God was pulling me in one direction. While I was pulling in another, still not sure what I was supposed to be doing. God was calling me to become a minister. I didn’t like to be in front of a lot of people.
I met with my pastor, who is also my mentor, and told him that I was answering the calling to the ministry. He encouraged me to follow what God had placed on my heart. Then, he told me I was preaching in two weeks! My first sermon was on Following Jesus. It was over two years ago. I was as nervous as I could be. But, God did not fail me! Through his Holy Spirit, He guided me through word for word. Praise God!!
