THE PARSONS PATCH “Joel L Watts Ministries” needs a new name… September 23, 2010 by Mark Stevens | 13 Comments 1 Votes Joel Watts This post is a carry over from a Facebook conversation concerning Joel’s new clerical title. In light of his beginning study at a seminary some of us thought Joel should establish his ministerial authority with a new title. For instance, I suggested “Pastor Joel”, others thought “Prophet” or “Apostle Joel” was appropriate and one poor soul thought “Joel the Shepherd” was appropriate! The conversation soon deteriorated into a re-naming of Joel’s ministry (yes he does have one) and in light of this I thought I would help a good friend out by opening up the opinion line as to what people think Joel’s ministry should be called… Which of the following should be the new name for Joel Watts Ministries?

Reply Mark Stevens September 23, 2010 at 4:47 pm Whereabouts? Or do you mean, Joel is one L of a guy? Or, he has one L of a ministry! Reply Jeremy September 23, 2010 at 9:56 pm I think The Church of Joelsus Watts only works as his website URL: thechurchofjoelsuswatts.us Reply Gerard September 23, 2010 at 10:06 pm How many times can you vote? Reply Mark Stevens September 23, 2010 at 10:17 pm I’ve changed it now. It should only be once.

Reply Michael Acidri September 24, 2010 at 3:24 am Joel seems to have his name cut out. Soon to enjoy his best life now. From latest stats it seems the ministry will be called Joelsong United….and believe me heads are already turning . As people head from the hills to the latest United ®. Reply Scripture Zealot September 24, 2010 at 2:00 pm You meant he’s “ministered to” right? Jeff Reply Mark Stevens September 24, 2010 at 4:08 pm huh? have I misspelled something again? Reply Scripture Zealot September 25, 2010 at 4:21 am I meant as opposed to having a ministry. He could use a spelling ministry. I have classes on Saturdays. Jeff Esteban Vázquez September 25, 2010 at 2:12 pm Come on, only TWO votes for “The Church of Joelsus Watts”?!?! That’s the best of the lot! Reply Scripture Zealot September 25, 2010 at 2:17 pm Too close to His name. I’m not going near that. How about “The Church of Joel… What?” Jeff Reply Leave a Reply Post navigation ← Previous Post Next Post → ABOUT MARK STEVENS Mark is pastor of the Happy Valley Church of Christ in Adelaide, South Australia.

ENDORSEMENT I am happy to commend Mark Stevens fine blog which provides resources and discussion on a panoply of things crucial to Christian ministry in the 21rst century.
