Julie Murphy
Ordained Minister in Acworth, Georgia
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I originally became an ordained minister online because I wanted to support friends and family in a more meaningful way, especially during important life events like weddings, blessings, or memorials. I felt called to be a source of comfort, encouragement, and spiritual support—whether through prayer, words of inspiration, or simply being present during major milestones. Getting ordained online gave me the credentials to serve legally and respectfully, while staying true to my values and intentions to help others.

His teachings have helped me better understand God’s Word and how to live it out with compassion and purpose. While I don’t belong to a specific denomination, I follow Christian principles and strive to serve others with humility, love, and grace in every opportunity I’m given.
