Embrace Your Role in Ministry

1-minute read – Sunday’s Memory Verse for 6/1/25

“And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.” Ephesians 4:11-12 NIV

Recently, my pastor emailed a message to our local church body. It encouraged me so much I decided to share it with you. I pray that you will be encouraged to embrace God’s plan for your ministry, whatever that may be.

“One of the greatest deceptions to grip the church of Jesus Christ has been that ministry is for the professionals. We’ve mistakenly come to think that ministry is supposed to be done solely by those who have been licensed, ordained, employed, or otherwise set apart by a church or religious organization, and in embracing that belief, so many Christians have taken their place on the sidelines of ministry when God expects them to be in the game!” Dr. Jeff Reynolds, Pastor First Baptist Church Bowling Green, KY

In His Love, Cindy

    1. Even when we’re trying to do what we know God has called us to do, the enemy will try to discourage us and make us doubt ourselves. He will make us doubt that God is able to accomplish His plan and direct our path. Our strength comes from God, not ourselves. Blessings, Scott! āœļø
