In the summer of 2022, on a Sunday morning at church, a young man walked on stage with his Bible and approached the podium. After about ten minutes in, I found myself in complete admiration of his words. He was engaging, and funny, and delivered such a powerful message. His age seemed to enhance his stage presence, and it was clear he carried the anointing of God.<\/em><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A couple of months later that fall, I had the privilege of working with him at our downtown location in the women’s ministry. \u00a0He truly loves people and God. His talk matches his walk.<\/em><\/div>\n

When did you realize that church ministry was something you felt called to be a part of?<\/em><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]

I believe Pastoral ministry is something that a person is called to. Every Christian is called to care for people, share the gospel, and make disciples of Christ. But the calling to Pastoral ministry is one that God calls specific people to. That they would help lead and steward His church in a particular area. I am thankful that God calls imperfect people to pastoral ministry. He chooses to use us to build and lead His church, what a great honor it is to serve Him in that way. For me, I felt called at around 12 or 13 years old; I got very involved in my local church, which was Mid-Cities Church. Myself and members of my family gave our lives to Christ and saw great change in our lives. I think that sparked a passion to serve the Church. I also loved my local church; I found great friends at my church, I was discipled by great people in my church, and I was called to leadership by the church. This is why I would say the Church is so important to us. It can be the place of community, growth, and even the place where you learn how to lead and mature as a person. So probably around 13 years old, I felt called to ministry, and over<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
For years I had pastors and leaders confirm that calling on my life. I never really looked for a plan B, I knew this is what I was called to do with my life.<\/div>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.thedailyfaithmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_5998-3-scaled.jpg” title_text=”IMG_5998-3″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]

What passions and gifts do you believe you have been called to pursue?<\/em><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]

At around middle school age, I knew I was passionate about serving in the church, sharing the gospel, and helping others find hope and purpose. Since then I have had one plan, and that was to be in ministry, build God\u2019s kingdom, and love my family and friends well. Early in my start in ministry, I realized that God had given me a passion and a gift to preach and to lead. So I have spent lots of time growing as a leader and as a preacher. But that also came with a lot of character growth, humbling moments and experiences, and plenty of correction and learning from great leaders and pastors who were ahead of me and helped pour into my life. I would say now my biggest passion is still to build God\u2019s church, but by raising other Godly leaders to find their gifts, grow in their calling, and help them in the same ways I have had other leaders help and invest in me. Of course, church planting and preaching is a primary focus in my life, but helping develop other great leaders is a special passion I feel called to do.<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.thedailyfaithmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_5968-2-scaled.jpg” title_text=”The Daily Faith Mag” _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”87%” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Benne||||||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Working with people comes naturally to you; you are an uplifting and encouraging person. Why do you choose to help others?

Why people… That is a great question. I have a deep appreciation for people and truly enjoy being an extrovert; spending time with others and sharing joyful moments is what brings me happiness. However, I also recognize that people can be complex and not every experience is filled with joy. As a pastor, I have the privilege of being there for individuals on their best days, but I also see them through their struggles and challenges. I understand that everyone has their own journey, and I strive to offer support and compassion during both their highs and lows.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0And I have come to realize that all people, including me, have tons of great qualities and also some difficult ones. We all say and do things we regret or don\u2019t mean; we all can be self-seeking and have wrong motives. At the end of the day, we are all flawed and sinful. But for some reason, the God of the universe felt it was worth sending his son Jesus down to this Earth to die for our sins and brokenness so that we could be saved and spend eternity with him. So if God found that people were worth that, then clearly people are valuable!<\/div>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.thedailyfaithmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_5971-2-scaled.jpg” title_text=”The Daily Faith Mag” _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”69%” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”15px” global_colors_info=”{}”]

I know some difficult memories or situations come with people, however life is too short not to enjoy people in our lives! Some things we can’t change or completely fix, and I know some situations are very complicated and complex, and maybe certain people lose a right to be in our lives or at least are limited in our lives for whatever reasons. However, many things in life are fixable and worth it. Relationships are worth it, good memories are with it, and doing life with people is worth it! There are only so many years on this earth, so enjoy them with great people! Laugh, apologize, forgive, make memories, have thick skin, and remember everyone is on a journey, some people change for the better!<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]

I have been blessed to have been a part of some amazing churches and led by some great pastors and leaders. Growing up, I always felt at some point, my wife and I would lead a church, maybe even plant one. But I don\u2019t think Isabella and I expected it to be this soon. We are both in our Mid to late 20s and thought-leading a church might be some years down the road. However, my home church, Mid-Cities, started a church planting program about a year and a half ago. And we were asked to consider joining the program so we could go and plant a new church in a new area. After a lot of prayer and talking with great leaders in my life, we both felt like God was opening up this door for us to step into. So we said yes to the program, and we are now weeks away from moving to San Antonio, Texas, to launch Vida Church! We have worked hard for the past year preparing for the church plant and recruiting people to come with us, and we are raising financial support for this church so that we can make a great impact on the city of San Antonio. If you want to know more about our church plant or want to help us in this journey you can visit our website <\/span>Vidachurchsa.org<\/a>. We believe God has called us to reach families, impact the city, and invest in the next generation by sharing the hope of Jesus in every place we go, every city we are in, and every nation around the world.<\/span><\/div>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]

As a devoted man of faith, what is one important piece of wisdom you would like to share with young men and women in their 20s who are still on the journey of discovering their identity and purpose in life?\u00a0<\/em><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]

My advice would be this: Choose wisely where you seek identity and purpose. Many things can shape your identity and purpose, but it’s crucial to choose the right things. Of course, I believe the one who gives us our true identity and true purpose is Jesus. So I would say if you are looking for that, keep seeking Christ, and if you haven\u2019t looked into church or a relationship with Jesus, go and find a church and get involved. This has to be your journey, your mom, dad, or whoever raised you has their own. You, as an individual, need to decide if you will allow God to lead you and shape you into who he has called you to be. And whenever you make mistakes, because we all do, get back up! Keep seeking God even with your flaws and struggles. God loved me and continues to love me even with my struggles and issues. His grace is enough for you, allow him to change you and love you!<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.thedailyfaithmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_6010-7-scaled.jpg” title_text=”the DailyFaith Mag” _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Benne||||||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Marriage is amazing; I am beyond thankful for my wife, Isabella! My wife is from Honduras and we met in college. We have been married for almost two years now, and I am thankful I chose someone who supports me but also helps me be a better person. Isabella loves Jesus, and because of that, she loves me so well. I feel like nowadays, many young adults are running away from marriage, which I think is a mistake, especially if you find someone who loves God and loves you and is committed to marriage as well. And I understand maybe that is happening because of fear of commitment or maybe because you didn\u2019t see a great marriage growing up. For some, it might be because of independence. And I also know for some that marriage isn\u2019t a desire and there\u2019s nothing wrong with that. However, it feels like nowadays marriage is something people push back on for whatever reason they have, and I would just encourage people to run towards marriage! If you found the right partner and you love them, then commit! For the men, take that step of faith, get a ring, and propose. Marriage of course has its hard moments, but God has so many beautiful things for those who put their trust in him.<\/div>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.thedailyfaithmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/470050562_606491758440834_6871637288593086708_n.jpeg” title_text=”Aaron Morales” _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Benne||||||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]

There, of course, are the rhythms I would say every Christian needs to apply to their lives, like prayer, bible reading, serving, worship, and many more. I will say a few rhythms that are helpful for me; 1. Talking to God as often as I can. For me, this usually happens in my car, but it can be anywhere. Take 5-10 minutes and share what you are thankful for, share the needs you have, and ask God to do miracles for his glory and to use you how he chooses. 2. Be generous. In all things, be as generous as you can with your time, finances, talents, and effort. Ask God who He would like you to serve or help. God wants to use us, but life is not all about us. And when we are generous, we allow God to humble us but also to use us for his glory.<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]
