Before you judge me...

I was asked by our church council to detail out everything that I did at my job. And i was afraid of doing this because i don't want to solicit sympathy nor do i want to invoke pride. I was heckled by people that said youth ministry was "easy", that i don't do anything, or that they can do a better job. I don't know if you can or cannot...i'm just saying that you take a look at this before you judge me. This is what swirls my mind every day that i'm held accountable for:
