Well, honey, lay ministry is when regular folks like you and me serve in the church without being ordained, while ordained ministry is when someone goes through the whole shebang of being officially recognized and consecrated for their church duties. So basically, one is like being a volunteer and the other is like being a full-time employee with benefits.

An ordained minister has been examined by a congregation and found to be orthodox in his beliefs. Then, those that have interviewed him certify or vouch for his orthodoxy and lay hands on him and prayer for his ministry. They then sign a paper stating that he is ordained by that group. To be licensed is to have the state's registration. It includes what affiliation the minister claims. There is not an examination of orthodoxy. Ministers are allowed to perform certain actions such as marriage with the state license.
