Essentials of Ministry

Christian ministry is an activity that Christians perform to spread and express their belief

in God and their FaithFaith. The type of ministry varies in different churches. When Jesus Christ

offered Christians the command to spread the word, he meant for them to apply to all believers.

According to Early and Gutierrez in their book ‘Everyday ministry’ the essentials of ministry

are; always being ready to receive God’s calling, responding to God’s call, living a life of prayer,

maintaining an eternal perspective, refusing to coast, loving other people, living a life without

compromise, loyalty to the truth, living up to your name, and keeping the obedience bar high.

For some time, I have been struggling with maintaining my praying routine and being obedient.

Still, I have decided to create a measurable plan for improvement and become a better Christian

minister.

Summary.

God always has an insatiable passion for intervening with an individual's life when he

calls them. Hence, Christians should always be ready to receive God's calling. God offers

Christians opportunities to change their lives and the nations they live in forever. The vision of

God is the best gift. God is infinite, indescribable, and he is a good shepherd. Seraphim are the

closest type of angels closest to God. Seraphim are always burning simultaneously in God's

presence throughout eternity (Earley and Gutierrez, 2010). For an individual to view God, they

have to acknowledge their sins just like Isaiah did as God is filled with majesty, glory, power,

and blazing with holiness (Earley and Gutierrez, 2010). Fire can either burn and consume, or it

can cleanse and purify (Earley and Gutierrez, 2010). Even though we are all sinners, God is

willing to use fire to cleanse and purify us just as he did with Isaiah as He is compassionate,
