The Donkey and The Colt

 

The image of Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a donkey and a colt symbolizes the balance between experience and innovation in ministry. The donkey represents seasoned leaders—pastors and elders—who bring invaluable wisdom and stability, having weathered many challenges. In contrast, the colt symbolizes emerging leaders with fresh ideas and enthusiasm, unburdened by years of service. Together, these two figures illustrate the importance of collaboration in ministry, blending the strength of experience with the energy of new perspectives. This harmonious partnership is essential for fostering a successful and dynamic ministry.
