The Philosophy Behind Ministry
In 1988, Norm Gordon came to Germantown, Maryland — not with a master plan, but with a willingness to invest in people one relationship at a time.
Over the years, living rooms filled up. Kids started hosting gatherings. Friendships became discipleship. Community became ministry.
During the conversation, James Milley joked about one of Norm’s GameNite photos:
“Out of 13 faces, 13 are smiling… that comes out to 100% success rate.”Honestly, that may describe Norm’s ministry better than anything else.
Jim and Norm connected through BridgesUS, but their conversation centered on something deeper: faithfully discerning what God is doing next instead of following a rigid “3- or 5-year plan.”
That’s the real story behind these photos.
Not just Germantown.
A lifetime of building people.(I learned all this through On the Bridge Podcast btw)
