Interview with Sam Masteller


Sam Masteller:

Sam was another interview that left me inspired and excited about getting into ministry. He had such fresh ideas, yet they were based in scripture and grounded in ideas that are not new at all. I really liked his transparency and openness with all of us during his interview. His church seemed like a place that I would love to visit and talk with him about things. Sam seemed very open to constructive criticism because he was all about reaching people and did not look to be political about things. He really seemed to reach out to the searching people of the area. He was very straight forward and pushed to see the church grow in numbers as well as in Christ.
Through his struggles in ministry Sam seemed to have a great outlook on everything that was going on. I enjoyed his devotion to family and you could see his hard work reflected in it. Sam taught that it was important to always be evaluating and looking at the motives of the person as well as the individual. I took a lot away from the interview and hope to carry the same heart for people and passion for God that Sam has.
