It's OK To Be "Fame-ish".

I recently watched a YouTube episode of No Small Parts, called Remembering Taylor Negron. "Taylor...Negron? Who is that, "You ask? Well, you no doubt have seen him in various rolls watching television or movies. He has a very recognizable appearance, and his voice is probably even more recognizable. He has been on countless television shows and movies as a character actor. He has played a Mailman in Better Off Dead, Monica's boss in several episodes of Friends, and even played a psychopath bad guy in the movie, The Last Boyscout. According to IMDB, he has been an actor 130 times. Here is the episode.



So why do I bring this up? Taylor was content playing the small parts. He was content not being extremely famous. He didn't take on the lead roles. He wasn't interested in being in the spotlight. He was happy right where he was. He was happy being, "fame-ish". In ministry we need to know that there are no small parts. Each of us plays a part for the much bigger whole in Christianity. We all have gifts that when we contribute with others with different gifts, we can accomplish much. Think about this when you watch the video.
