Calvin Scruggs
Ordained Minister in Franklin, Tennessee
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
"I decided to become an ordained minister online primarily to officiate the wedding of a close friend. They asked me to be a part of their special day in a really unique way, and I felt honored to help them personalize their ceremony. It was a convenient and cost-effective way to gain the legal standing needed to perform the marriage. Beyond that, I found the process of online ordination to be incredibly accessible and inclusive, allowing me to serve in this capacity without requiring extensive religious training. It provided me with the legal authorization to perform meaningful ceremonies, which is something I now value and may consider doing for others in the future."
