Why don some people take mail-order ordinations seriously?
No matter where someone receives their ordination, the level of respect they attain with others is directly proportionate to the level of respect they give your ministry. No one questions the validity of Billy Graham’s ordination because he actively ministers according to their expectations as a man of God. Very few people know or even care where he received his ordination. If you are also committed to service and ministry, you’ll be respected as a minister, no matter where you received your ordination.
