Man of God Like Moses
Aguer Dut used to stutter. So, when his pastor told him at the end of Year 12, “You should study ministry at Avondale,” he said, “How could I speak for God? I can’t speak properly.” Then he felt God speaking to him through friends who affirmed his spiritual gifts. And his call. Aguer first felt it on a STORM Co trip. “Speaking with the kids, working with the team, seeing God move. I thought, OK, perhaps ministry is for me.” Baptised in 2017, Aguer never thought he’d become a pastor. Now, with a Bachelor of Ministry and Theology, he’s working as an intern at Geraldton Seventh-day Adventist Church in Western Australia. “If you’re feeling God calling you, but you’re confused or hesitant, I encourage you: take the first step. God understands. He’s not expecting us to be perfect. He’s not expecting us to do things He hasn't already planned. When He calls, He’ll provide what you need.”
